Good 1st date

Hey there everybody...by the time you read this it should be FRIIIIDAY! Finally the weekend has arrived once again!

I had my date with [edited at her request] tonight. All went well. No uncomfortable silences, which is always nice.

[edited at her request], work night for me, we just met up for dinner. We had some good conversations. She seemed really easy to talk to.

I can't say that we are the "perfect" match...but she spoke her mind and I spoke mine. It was so nice to talk with someone that I knew wasn't just saying what I wanted to hear...someone that was being truthful, whether I liked it or not.

I liked most of it...we realized early on that we won't be able to talk about politics! ;-) Let's just leave it at that...we are on the opposite side of the spectrum on that front.

But, she and I seemed to have similar stories concerning our past relationships. You know, where we meet someone and they have a job and seem to have their life in order, only to find out later that they have quit their job and are complete LOSERS! It was nice to meet someone from the same f'd up past.

My next date with [edited at her request] probably won't be until next weekend...I have a poker game this Friday and [edited at her request]. Hey, nothing wrong with taking a S-L-O-W approach for once! ;-)

In other news...I broke my guitar out of it's shipping box tonight before my date. Man, I really can't wait to start watching those DVD's and seeing if/how quickly I'm going to pick all of that up.

Tomorrow night is the monthly Yanok poker tourney. That is always a good time filled with friends, poker, beer, and usually some WILD behavior! ;-)

As for this weekend I really haven't made any plans...I may have to work some this weekend. My uncle wants me to help him rearrange some furniture in his house. Also we are having a Veteran's Day memorial celebration at the Eagles on Sunday at 2:00. There will be a Blackhawk helicopter doing a fly over...so that should be cool.

I booked my first cruise today! I can't FREAKING wait!!! It's a singles cruise and I really hope I have a lot of fun. It will be the week of my 30th birthday party, so I'm sure to have some FUN. Now the only problem for me is to STAY single until January 16th! LOL...who wants to go on a singles cruise and not be able to ACT singe! ;-)

Well, if you have read this far, again, I'm sorry for boring you! LOL

I seem to use this place to drain my thoughts and to clear my head. Some of you have seemed to enjoy it. Maybe it's because you enjoy reading about my f'd up life...maybe not...BUT I promise you I'll continue to post as long as you continue to read.

Good night everyone! I hope you all have a good...NO, a G-R-E-A-T weekend!!!
