It's Pouring

Yes when it rains men, they come in downpours them in my life. Maybe not quite torrential downpours but a pretty heavy stream nonetheless.


I'm a woman and I happen to like men...just hanging out with them feels different than hanging out with my female friends. Neither is better, I like both but sometimes I feel the need for male companionship.


I had decided I wanted to date again and preferably meet a man the old-fashioned way: in person. An organic sort of thing you know? Online gets old after awhile. But since after setting that desire, no men turned up I decided to see if I could find someone to hang with over the holiday weekend.


So I set up 2 dates with 2 different men...one for Saturday and one for Sunday.


And so the dates transpired. On Saturday I went to the Boulder Creek Festival and hung out for a few hours.


Sunday we went to the Walnut Cafe and then walked in the park near my house.


Both are very nice gentlemen but I didn't feel an attraction to either. Still we had a good time and enjoyed each other's company. It was fun to be out & about with a man. :)


Well remember how I said I wanted to meet a man the organic way? Well I did.


A few of my friends were getting together on Monday to go to the festival (same one I went to on Saturday). Along the way, we picked up a few others and I had an attraction to one of them.


As the day went on he & I chatted some and eventually wandered off by ourselves. We spent some time checking out the booths. Here's the part that I find so funny - most of those booths we went to were set up fore ORGANIC food products. Doesn't that make you giggle? What a funny, funny little Universe we have! She has a sense of humor all right.


Anyway, I found that tidbit amusing.


After the festival we hung out in his hot tub at his townhouse and chatted, etc. It was fun and hopefully we'll do it again. He's very much a smart *ss which I like and is well-traveled and articulate. And he's a Midwestern boy so he's probably as nice as he seem. ;)


He asked for my phone number so hopefully he will call. You'll be updated when he does of course.
