Rain :(
I realize that a lot has been going on and I have been very, very bad about keeping the internet informed. I apologize and I miss you all.I have been working on a post that's going to turn out to be very long, and I'm glad I'm writing it, but I realize that I can't tell the story in one sitting but I want it to be one post. I'm concerned about this because I am not good staying with my train of thought so then I re-write a lot of what I've already written.
The option would be just continue, but then I don't think what I was saying would make sense to anyone other than myself. Which in reality is probably ok (since maybe three people read this) but in case some stranger happens onto it I don't want to be dismissed outright. That's annoying in person and I'm sure just as annoying online.
So I have been working and saving it as a draft and I hope to actually log this one on (unlike some others out there that are probably going to float forever unrealized in cyberspace).
That being said, I do want to give you a quick run down of at least this past weekend.
Friday, which feels like a llllooooonnnnnggg time ago was the fund raiser bull roast. It was fun, and part way through I decided I wasn't leaving at 9 with my Dad (the original plan) but would just deal with the lack of sleep and close the party. Turns out to have been a good plan because there were jell-o shots aplenty and every time I turned around someone was buying me a drink!
Saturday was originally going to be the Faerie Festival but with Todd still being sick and 80-85% chance of severe thunderstorms (plus, Liz's dread falls weren't complete) we decided to blow it off. Sad because I have wings and a costume all un-worn but happy because I got to sleep in (yay!) and go SHOPPING!!! I picked up a few tops, a skirt and 3 pair of completely impractical shoes - it was great!
Saturday night I talked my own personal white knight (you know, He Who Rescued Me From My Key Locking Self) for a while then went to the neighbors and drank some lovely red wine.
Sunday I woke up nice and early and just flitted around the house a while until it was time to get ready to be picked up for brunch and a movie. Or at least that was the original plan. Turns out I was picked up around 1030 and we went to brunch - which was very nice - and we had mimosas - super yummy! Then because the weather cleared up we decided to walk around town for a while.
Did I ever tell you how much I am in love with downtown? Because I am, if I hadn't.
There were boats all over and he was telling me about them (boats are one of his passions and part of what he does) and it was fascinating. We walked a little while and went into one of the local bars for a drink (it was like 1230 or so). It was such a nice time just hanging out and getting to know each other we decided to skip the movie (the original plan) and go back to my place. We let Cammi out (they became fast friends which was very nice) and then while I was upstairs he opened us a bottle of wine. We sat outside on the deck with the music on, drinking wine and chatting.
It was after 6 when he left and it was one of the best days I can remember.
