Hes now sent me several cute e-mails including the following joke at the internet personals site. Wed traded funny responses during our beer-soaked conversation. I know I need to post some, but here was his spoof:
Hey baby…
Uh…. huh….. uh….. I like…. have like a thing… or something… for chicks who dig Coen Brothers movies….
And also chicks who will uh…. like…. listen to long winded stories….
about like…. weird bands and things.
Hope to hear from you gorgeous…
His other notes mention getting together before our work routines crank back into full gear. I know hes feeling strange about his rambling stories, but I still find it all charming to no end.
Today is my last day of the trial membership. Im not going to renew. I think Im moving on to a different site after New Years. One thats free. Im not going to spend money to get dorky one-line responses. Id rather spend money on OD+ if anything.
Still, strangely enough, there are times when an interesting note pops up. I met someone else, and we sped right through our introductory notes and moved into phone numbers, phone calls and meeting last night! All in the course of about 24 hours! Bizarre, but fun!
Hows this for juggling practice?
Name: Mark
Age: 32
Occupation: Graphics Editor for giant newspaper
We met: For dinner at a tapas place of my choosing. He got bonus points for already being there when I arrived promptly at 7:30.
We did: Talked and talked while eating paella and drinking bottle after bottle of the Sangre de Toro (hic). After that, we moved on to the Cuban place across the street and sat at the bar and drank some more (recurring theme?).
Convo: I am getting good at this asking all the questions stuff. Got a lot of interesting stuff out of him! Hes moved all over the country with the newspaper thing, as most people in his biz tend to do. Did the internet consulting gig for a while in NYC before the bottom fell out. Has been here for a year, with no intention on staying for more than a couple more. I detected a bit of a troubled past regarding relationships. Hes still really torn up about the death of his dad a few years back. He lives in these pretty cool lofts downtown, where I know several people. That place is like a real-life soap opera, I tell you. For some reason I clammed up quite a bit and kept turning the conversation back around to him.
Part of personality I liked: Sensitivity. Very strong work ethic. Drive.
Part of personality I disliked: He speaks really softly and comes across as somewhat of a pushover. Hes also very, very, very, veerrrrrryyyy serious. Like hes sad.
Part of appearance I liked: Good looking, but not as cute as Theo. Taller than me. Dark, thinning hair. Sideburns (Yo, Adriana!), nice, sweet smile. Lips that had me hypnotized. Sexy as hell. I couldnt stop staring at them. They were begging to be kissed. Dont even remember the color of his eyes.
Part of appearance I disliked: Small hands. BUT those were the same hands that touched my hands and massaged them and held them. Nice.
How it ended: He walked me to my car, and I drove him around the corner to his. But he didnt get out of my car for hours!!! We sat and listened to music and talked and I finally kissed and kissed and kissed and kissed those lips. Aah. It was like relief to me. It was so, so delicious. One of the most comforting make-out sessions Ive ever had. He just felt so good to me. Finally, at around 3:45, I was starting to fall asleep. We parted. I noticed he had a taillight out as he drove away. I called his mobile phone. Didnt answer, but called me back as I was walking in the door. Hed turned it off during our time together. Sweet, sweet Mark.
Chances I’ll see him again: Pretty good. Id say 90%. Im afraid, though, that I will end up attacking those lips again (and the rest of him too). Sent me an e-mail last night that I got this morning. It read in part:
i have a big smile on my face as i drift of to sleep
Yummy.
I still wanna taste Theos lips.
