My little haven. Be it ever so humble...
So I spent the day yesterday nursing a hang over from the night before. I had fun though and it seems I'm now a chicken hawk. For the non gays, it means I'm an older guy after the young mens (chicken). I met a kid, we'll call him Chicken, who is 20 yrs old, and goes to school at some obsure university in Kerrville. We exchanged numbers and the next day he found me on Facebook. He works fast. I honestly didn't think he was super attractive but we were seriously the only ones at the HEAT at that time aside from the bartenders. We flirted a lot and I played into the whole "I know, I know, I don't look 20, I look 12" nonsenese, which is what Chicken said...and then he told me I looked 21 and when I told him my real age he said he liked older guys because they know what they want. After a while, though, I got bored. I gave him a hug and then left. By the time I got back to the HEAT with M and D, he was gone.
In other man news: I got the internets connected yesterday morning and after cleaning up the apartment and paying some bills I decided to go online and chat. I'm glad I did. I reconnected with a bunch of folks I used to chat with regularly. One of them was J, who is a lawyer in Houston. I met him once and had a great time. He's super smart and very funny.
Then, I came across a guy I hadn't spoken to in years...he was in the military the last time I saw him and he was deployed. L, is his name and I really liked him. I dated him briefly the first time D and I broke up and then also the second time. But, he kept getting deployed for months at a time and we'd get out of touch. Not long after the last deployment, I met Stephen.
The last date we went on, he took me his sister's bday party. I got to play baseball with his family and bust a pinata. I had a great time and I got to see how he much he cared about his family and how close they were. His sister has Down's Syndrome and she was so sweet and very fun...she played baseball with us.
So, we were chatting yesterday. He now owns a home, has another dog, and he invited me for dinner tonight. He said he wanted to cook for me...which I thought was nice. The whole time we were chatting he kept alluding to picking up where we left off. I told him at one point that I'd need lots of time before I could date. He asked what I needed and I said, "A friend to lean on".
He said, "You got it."
Did I mention he has the body of a god and a voice like Vin Diesel? He does. He really does. At least, he did.
So as we were concluding the chat session, I said "I'm glad we could reconnect"
and he said "Me to. By the way, no more deployments. This time I won't let you go"
Creepy? Sweet?
I got butterflies in my stomach when he said that. Ever since we first met and on every date we went on, he never acted inappropriately. He was very respectful and very attentive...not just with me but other people I saw him interact with. And, he took very good care of his dog...Maddie.
He'll be on my short list for dates when the time comes, fo sho! Bye biatchas, I'll have details tonight!
