captain's log
woke up at 8:10am. went to work. only got a couple hours of sleep last night because i took a nape in the evening and woke up around 11pm last night and couldnt back back to sleep. so i surfed the net, listened to music, watched a little of the telly.. so i get to work and wrote up a few orders. got a few juicy ones. stayed pretty steady at work. IM'd back and forth with a girl i have been befriending.. may i stress the word "friend," here. we've only known eachother about 3 weeks. we did hang out saturday the 30th in bethesda. we went bike riding, then walked around bethesda and hung out in the coffee shops all day and chatted. we also had lunch at some place called the mongolian bbq. wasn't bad. they cook your food fast. you can choose your own spices and stuff. they give you a bowl, and you fill it up as much as you can, then they grill it in front of you and then throw on a dinner plate and serve with white rice. not bad, but i could have done the same thing at home. this was our first "sort of date." so, as evening got close, i asked her how to get back to the beltway so i could go home. she said her apartment was on the way there and would i like to see it. well, i was thinking, this girl must really trust me if she is inviting me to her apartment on the first date. so i got to see her apartment and stuff.. we had something to drink. she had a bottle of irish cream she has been struggling to get open for months, and she asked me to open it for her. i couldn't do it.. the thing was glued shut by all the glucose in there. so i got a butterknife and wacked it around the lid and, presto, i got it open. what a show off.
i was getting really tired, so i said i was going to go.. her friends had already invited her to an 80s dance party at Black Cat in D.C., but i had no energy to go.. so, i gave her exactly 3 hugs, and went home.
anyway, we have been IM'ng and emailing one another like you wouldnt believe. i don't think anything is going to happen between us.. just have become friends. besides, she said, in no uncertain terms, that she doesn't find blonde guys attractive. well, i have blonde hair, but my head is shaved, so that shouldnt count. she's from Lima, Peru. she has very fark skin. her father was of Incan decent. she could pass for a black girl. she has long, curly, black hair. not a bad looking lady, actually. so, i am not going to expect anything more than friendship. oh well. she's 35 years old - perfect for someone like me who is 38. she likes salsa dancing. i don't know anything about it. anyone who has seen me dance could not imagine me salsa dancing.. i don't dance well as a couple.
tonight i for a 30 mile group ride, like i so every wednesday night. average speed was 19 mph. we had some nice hills. we were hauling ass. it was a hammer fest, for sure. after, i ate dinner with a couple of the regulars. had a chicken burger. it was damn good stuff.
now i am home, and sleepy... till tomorrow..
