And on President's Day, he rested.

This has been a pleasant, but busy weekend.  Well, it was mainly just yesterday that was busy.  Sassy Waiter (who is no longer a waiter, since there's no longer a dining room) was organizing a big fundraising event at Home Bar yesterday.  He convinced me to go and check it out.  I had only planned on going for a little over an hour, but I think I ended up spending two hours there.  It was fun.  There was some great music, games, and plenty of good looking guys to check out.  Alas, most of them were taken.  None of them certainly showed any interest in me.

Later (much later) in the evening, I did my weekly writing session at Applebee's.  I love it there and I've actually picked up (not in that sense) a regular server there.  She's a sweetheart and she let's me take up a table for a couple hours.  Plus she puts up with my smartass nature, which is always a plus.

Plus I did my grocery shopping yesterday, which was somewhat frustrating.  Every week, I buy a couple ready-made salads in sealed containers.  I take them to work for lunch a couple times each week.  My regular grocery store was out of them.  (Someone was restocking that section of the store, so he might have been putting more out.  But I was unwilling to stand around and wait.)  So after dinner, I stopped at a different store to pick them up.  That store didn't have any either!  How am i supposed to eat healthy(-ish) when my local stores won't keep my salads in stock?  (Insert melodramatic "woe is me" here.)

Today, I plan on just taking it easy.  I figure I'll watch a couple movies.  Latter Days has been on my mind for a bit, so today may be the day I pull out that DVD.

Granted, I'd love some company right about now. Alas, that doesn't look likely.  As I said, none of the cute guys at the fundraiser gave me a second look.

Weekend Report

As is usual the cases, my fears earlier this week proved unfounded and I got my wit at creativity back.  I actually felt like I was on fire this weekend, to the point of possibly being obnoxious at times.  Between the banter with Sassy Waiter on Saturday and some fun conversations with both people at Home Bar and the staff at another waitress yesterday, I jut felt really good about myself.  And maybe a little full of myself.  (Hey, I need to be full of somebody.)
I was so on fire, this word got tossed around.

I didn't go out to Home Bar on Saturday (late) night or Friday night for that matter.  I decided that as tired and out of sorts as I've been lately, I just needed a weekend of nights home alone.  Or nights one-on-one with another guy, but that didn't pan out.  And while I was still up late both nights, "late" worked out to around midnight rather than the 2am or later, which is normal when I do go out.

As for one-on-one time with a guy, I'm meeting someone for coffee this evening.  He and I have been talking via emails for almost two weeks now.  It's been a pleasant conversation and I'm looking forward to seeing if we click as well in person as we seem to online.
