Lucky 13?

Blind date, last weekend, with Mr Colorado lasted 3 hours +.. seems we had lots to talk about, at least until that question.. the one that starts with what are you looking for...? I hate that question. If I knew that, wouldn't I have found it? Do I want a permanent relationship? (maybe.. can someone define permanent for me??). Do I want a friend with benefits?  That one is a bit easier to define, but can we discuss the benefits first? There is a lot of work that needs doing around this homestead, starting with the water heater! And then perhaps all I want is the one night stand here and there.. All of this simply begs the question of what do you want? and Do we have to discuss this on the first date? Jeesh! Whatever happened to just getting to know one another? When did dating and life become so abbreviated? Is the Rapture really coming and do we need to be hooked up before it gets here!?

Moving on.. I answered the question with enough ambiguity that he is still wondering what it is I want. When he finds out, I hope he'll let me know. In the meantime, we had date 2 and went riding all day.. motorcycle. And what a great day it was for that too.. sun shining, nice breeze, low humidity. The best part is that I could still walk the next day. I am in better shape than I thought!

Four days later, and Mr C calls again.. guess he likes me. We are going out again tomorrow.. lunch with friends (is this like Meet the Parents!?) and then a friendly poker game.. he's going to bank me for the day on the condition I pay back the bank if I win. I don't know what happens if I break even..hmmm. In the meantime, lunch out today netted me a phone number and a future date with the Snap-Lite division manager., a man who understands the importance of batteries and why I needed to make a special trip to town to get some! YES!!

Not sure how old he is, but I do know he is cute, so what they heck! oh yes.. he also has very nice hands.. mmmm ... Stay tuned...
