Boston UpdateOk, because I know you're all dying!!! :)
I talked to Boston on Tuesday and decided since S was going with my parents on Wednesday that we would go to dinner. YEAH me!!! On Wednesday however, I get an email saying that he's really not feeling well, he was going to lay down for a little while and see if he felt any better. Later I got another saying he'd just gotten up and still wasn't feeling that well but maybe just needed to wake up a bit and gain some energy. UGH!!! I emailed him back and told him that if he was sick we can do it another time. No big deal. It actually was a big deal but I mean if he's sick I can't really complain about that. So I called J & B and told her there was a change of plans and asked if I didn't hear back from Boston if they wanted to go out. They were game. I decided to get some stuff done around the house and wash the dishes etc. Then there was a knock at the door and there he was! Would have been nice for him to call me so I'd had some time to get ready. Oh well. I was just happy that he was here. I hurried up and got ready as quicky as I could and we headed out. I called J to tell her change of plans again and I think that she understood. Hell, I really didn't care if she did or didn't. :)
We went to a nice little steak house and had dinner and a couple beers. We talked and talked about nothing in particular. The waitress finally told us when we were ready to order to just put the water carafe on the edge of the table. :) We ate dinner and the dining room cleared out but we continued talking. Finally decided to go to a bar that had some music and have a drink there. We ran into a guy that he knew. I kept staring at him, knowing I'd met him before. Well, come to find out I'd met him through my best friends ex-boyfriend like 8 years ago. Small world. So the 3 of us had a couple drinks and caught up. We were going to try to make it home for last call but we missed it. We really didn't care anyway, we were just enjoying each others company.
The following day was Thanksgiving. He wasn't sure what was going on as no one really called him for dinner. He hadn't heard from his mom in a couple of weeks and his dad really hadn't planned anything. I did invite him to my parents house. I knew they wouldn't care. When he got home his dad, sister, Aunt and a couple others were there cooking dinner. So that turned out really nice for him. I ended up going to my parents house. We had a good time too. The highlight of the night was watching what my mom would do next. She'd drank WAY too much wine. It was hilarious!!! I'm really surprised that she didn't get sick. I called Boston when I got home and he had some friends over. His dad kept getting on the phone and it was hilarious. Kept telling me to come over. I was leary of walking into a house full of people I didn't know. Yes, yours truely has a shy bone in her body. Well I drank a beer before I got there to calm my nerves a bit. When I walked in his dad was already gone but his friends and sister were still there. I think there was actually only 1 person that I didn't know besides his sister. Wow! Is she a pretty girl!!! Tall, dark brown hair and these peircing blue eyes. Just beautiful. And she's really nice too. She's young, 20 I think, has a 2 year old and is getting married in August. Very, very nice girl. Anyway, we sat up and played cards for quite a while. The funny thing was that the guy that had sent me flowers a couple weeks ago was there too. Ya, a bit uncomfortable. :)
Friday I went out to pick up S. I hadn't heard from my parents at all so I wasn't sure if I was supposed to get her or what. I buzzed her on the pc but there was no answer. (They live in the middle of no where and don't have a land line phone in case you've forgotten or for the newbees out there.) I hopped in the car and drove out there. When I walked in the door she just sat there and stared at me until everyone else turned around and stared at me. Then she said "Mommy! You're not supposed to get me until tomorrow, I want to stay again tonight!!!!!!!!" My parents agreed that she could stay the night again so I visited for a short time and then went to find Boston. My mom asked what I was going to do if S wasn't coming home and I told her that I was invited to go out w/ him and his cousin that came up to visit and a couple friends that were in town. It was actually really nice. With it being just after Turkey Day there were a ton of people in town that I haven't seen in years. It was really nice to see them. We ended up at a local bar dancing our butts off again. He is a wonderful dancing partner!! :) I haven't had that much fun dancing w/ someone since S's dad. He and I used to have a kick ass time on the dance floor! Anyway, we danced our butts off and just had a great time. He decided to have an after bar party at his house. I stayed up till about 5am and I was done. DONE. Tired so I crawled into bed. I woke up at 8am and they were STILL awake. Unreal. I slept on and off all morning and then finally got up and went home to get ready and get S from my parents house. I can't hang w/ the big dogs anymore! Granted that they were all sleeping by probably 9am or so.
So, all in all.... I've had a wonderful time with him. I feel that I've met someone that I can have a great friendship with. He is very honest with me about himself and his life. He seems to be a genuine person. I've also learned that he has a big heart. He's a great dad to his children. They just got back from downstate last night and called him on their way and asked if they can come over and spend the night with him. I talked to his daughter on the phone last night. Adorable. What a little chatterbox!!! She and S will get along great. His kids are just about to turn 6 (boy) and 4 (girl). Right before and right after Christmas. I think they got jipped for birthdays!!!! :) My friends used to hate having their birthdays right around Christmas. Oh well. Glad mine is in the summer... Actually now that I write this, I wonder when his son's bday is? Our xmas party is Dec 16 and I'm still debating on inviting him or not.... I think that I'd have a great time with him. I know my cousin's hubby is going to the dinner part and then we decided we'd ditch him afterwards... We'll see what we decide I guess. I think that I'll just invite him to go. I know it's early. We haven't been seeing each other very long but I think that we'll still be talking by then! :) I think we'll be talking for a long time. :) I hope so anyway. I feel that I've met someone very, very special.
