Ladies and Gentlemen! The date youve all been biting your nails over! Er. Maybe that was just me.
Name: MM
Age: 38
Occupation: Architect/Carpenter
Length of date: 14 ½ pretty amazing hours!
We met: At a café in my neighborhood at 10am. Started in on the Bloody Marys right off the bat.
We did: Brunch. While we were eating he asked me what was going on down the block. I had no idea. He said the street was blocked off and there was a stage being set up. After brunch we decided to check it out. It was a charity event with music, food, the works. And it was open to the public. Oh my gosh, it was so much fun. The weather was better than perfect (sunny and hot!), and I was almost giddy. We hung out all afternoon. Got some shade under a bridge. He put his arm around me. He made me laugh hard. We walked some more. He rolled his own cigarettes while walking. I was impressed. My sandal broke. He fixed it with some string he found on the ground. Impressed again. We had dinner and drank margaritas on the patio. I drank too much. Maybe he did too. He told me that he needed to go home to feed his dog. Asked me if I wanted to see his place. Sure! His dog is huge and his house is awesome. We kissed in his bedroom. On the bed. I fell asleep. He did too. I woke around 12:30 and told him that I needed to go home. I tripped on the stairs and almost fell down three flights. He picked me up and packed me and the giant dog into his car. Drove me home. Walked me to the front door of my apartment and he kissed me again and left.
Convo: As nervous and intimidated as I was regarding the e-mails, he was really easy to talk to. Very down to earth and not intimidating at all. Topics ranged from work to family to movies to his hometown to the fat kid jumping on the blow-up slide. And more and more and more. I hate that I got drunk in the end. I wanted to keep my blather to a minimum. I blathered.
Part of personality I liked: Clever. Not afraid to be goofy around me.
Part of personality I disliked: He was rather soft spoken and I thought that it might lend itself to the possibility of being a bit wimpy, but he can definitely take charge when the opportunity presents itself.
Part of appearance I liked: Wavy hair verging on crazy. Thinning, but soft as down. Cute dimples. Piercing eyes.
Part of appearance I disliked: I dont know why I keep this section in here. Honestly .the only thing I can say is that he was shorter than I thought he would be. But for some reason I found it endearing. And terribly sexy. (??!)
Highest Point: I cant really say there was one particular highest point. It may have been when he slinked his arm around my waist at one point. Or maybe it was the kissing scene. Or the tour of the house. Or just laughing with him.
Lowest Point: I could say it was when I got drunk and (probably) overstayed my welcome, but thats when all the kissing and the good stuff happened.
How it ended: See above with the kissing and the driving me home and the walking me to the door and the kissing.
Chances I’ll see him again: If he asks, Im so there.
