Oh wow. Life has suddenly improved a LOT. As many of you know, I was having a pretty crazy streak of bad luck for a while. Got dumped, bike got stolen, paid a lot of money to my parents I possibly shouldn't have spared to buy my Beetle back (which my father stole from me several years prior), had Beetle for a month before getting into a really silly car accident, got rental car, tire on rental car get slashed, someone uses my checking account to buy a shit-ton of iTunes gift cards, I was hemorrhaging money left and right for various bills I paid and don't want to think about right now. I'd given up dating in frustration, because it seemed the pool of single men with the qualities I was looking for, actually consists only of the one man who has already broken up with me.
All I wanted was to simplify. No more drama, no more dating, just go out with friends a couple times a week. I was pretty content with that, actually. I was slowly coming to enjoy spending my nights alone.
And along comes Eric. Out of the blue. Without warning. Jesus. He has many of the qualities I loved about my ex, but far fewer of the flaws I hated. He talks to me as much as I do to him, and yet he still listens closely. Not anti-social. Willing to go dancing with me. Not terrified to meet my friends and coworkers. Hot. Doesn't think I'm bat-shit crazy. Fan-fucking-tastic in bed, and has more of a sex drive then I do, and when I reach the necessary level of personal comfort, will most likely let me do anything I like to him.
This pleases me immensely.
In other news, I was a zombie in my friend's drag show production. That went over extremely well. Prom has been announced and I'm really stoked on it. I'm going to make that my "vacation" for this year, to the point that I'm going to sell mutual funds to finance it, and I don't care. I start my chest piece March 2nd, so less than two weeks away. This Saturday, I'm going to be in San Francisco to see the band that Eric's currently playing drums for perform... I should probably find out where, eh?
After waking up and shoving him out of bed this morning so he'd get back to the bay area in time to go to work, I've now happily realized that for the first time in weeks, it's sunny-ish outside! I need to get on my bike today, or someone is going to die.

Yeah, that was fun. Definitely have to do it again, although I am not dancing in front of the speaker by the stairs next time! I think you handled the awkwardness really well after the initial 'WTF!?' moment. :-)

I dunno, I'd be suspicious of this man if I were you. He probably refers to himself in the third person and makes really bad puns in bed....
