Catching Up

thepnutgalleryWoke up, weirdly, at 5ish. No clue why, and no better equipped to go back to sleep. Laid in bed for a while, then saw that Kathi and Beth were at Brian's. Joined them for a lovely, if overly long time. One older gent walking out said I had a delightful laugh. The very next couple to sit in the same place huffed that we should be quieter. They said it as they were leaving, so that it couldn't do them any good. Ah, well.
We chatted about many things, including their plan to use my ass as bait to get a friend of theirs to visit, and the issues I'm having with Tim. Kathi has always been very wise - I would once put her damn near Amy J level wisdom. I'm a little older and wiser myself now, so I'm not sure I'd go quite that high, but she's still very wise. I mentioned that I want Tim to be happy, I recognize that part of being happy is having sex, and therefore I want him to have sex, but at the exact same time I am still hurt when he's out hooking up, and I wondered how long it would take before that went away. Her answer was that it doesn't. It only gets worse and worse until it gets bad enough that you have to distance yourself. I'm am very much hoping she's wrong.
Hit up Filter next, where I was supposed to meet Chris McAtamney. Chris was a trick of mine from a long time ago, and the last person Ken cheated on me with. I don't hold it against him, but it's absolutely in his Wrong File. Chris wasn't there, but instead having lunch at Taste of Thai. Also had a great conversation with them, full of mirth.
It was getting on towards 4pm at this point, and the couple hours of sleep from the night before were starting to hit. I laid down for a couple hours, but got a text from Matt that he wanted to see me. Figuring this was a hook up, I started getting ready to shower, but then he said he really needed to see me, and wanted to meet at Babycakes. Naturally, I thought he was already dead. Parking is tough to find on Friday nights, so I ended up parking around the corner from The Loft and walking down.
The second I saw him, I knew he was squeaked. Then I noticed that he was just chattering about work and the like. Awwww - no life changing news, just drunk and wanted to see Squeak. :-) He asked if he could spend the night with me, and I acquiesced. Figured once we got to Rich's I could always drink enough to be cool with that. Also, since it was 6:30, I figured that meant being babysitter. Meh. I've been blacked out enough times to owe some drunkarma. We had to make a stop at his dispensary first, so walked over there. On the way there he mentioned he loved me, and wanted to be more for me than just a friend and fuckbuddy. Once inside, I got a glimmer of his casual rudeness when he mentioned without so much as trying to keep quiet "They're all so ugly." He also sang, and made out with me in the middle of the floor. I'm sure they've seen worse, but I don't like contributing to it.
I drove his car over to Flick's, which was sparsely populated. I greeted the security guard, he asked how we were, and Matt replied "Better than here." Sigh. He wanted to sing karaoke, so we drove to Redwing. I saw Beth again, and he ran into several folks he knew, and he sang along with the drunk folks performing on stage. After a couple hours there, I drove us back to my place so I could have a drink or two before hitting Rich's. I hopped in the shower, and he complained about it taking all of 10 minutes. Maybe thankfully, Keith Barton called just before we left. I already rescheduled last Sunday, so I couldn't do it again. Matt said he was fine to drive home....I wasn't sure about that, but it had been several hours since he was drinking. Sad to miss Rich's, but I have a feeling it would have been a poor experience anyway.
Hopped online after he left, and got hit up by David. David and I met a long time ago, through his then-bf Tommy. Tommy wanted to hook up with me, but I wanted to wait for David. Then David wanted to hook up with me, but I wanted to wait for Tommy. Then I didn't get to sleep with either of them, they broke up and disappeared from online for a while. He was kinda dirty and stubbly, but I was so happy to finally put a check mark next to his name, I didn't really care. Found myself looking at the clock at 4:45am, so finally called it a night.
