New Leaves

in progress

Happy

The weekend was busy. I went dancing with Trish and Angel on Friday night and stayed out late. We went to Wallstreet. Its a club that is mostly frequented by the gay community, which almost always means better music, better dancing, better drinks and just more happening. I didn't get danced with by anyone of either sex. Color me not too disappointed. There was the part of getting on stage... oh dear. My mother's blood does flow through these veins.

Saturday morning, Lady and I went to the thrift store. I totally scored. 2 pairs of jeans, 1 pair of casual pants, 2 pairs black work pants, 2 black turtlenecks (for work, under the uniform), and 3 nice shirts for less than 14.00. One of those pairs of jeans were Gloria Vanderbilt, look brand new, and were only 2.00.
Oh, and a pair of black footies, never been worn, still had the silicon insert in them.

Saturday the Michigan clan arrived and I was treated to much attention from the wee Tobias. He was my buddy all weekend.

I was treated to a phone call from the lovely Calima, and hemmed my jeans while she and I chit chatted and caught up. It was lovely to hear from her again.

Kat stayed in my room with Tobias, and I agreed to sleep downstairs on the air mattress.

Mike called me about 7:30 and said "What would you do if I told you that I was already on my way?"

I had asked him to come on Saturday instead of Sunday because of everyone coming in to town and I wanted him to meet them. Neither of us likes to share each other at the moment. I am sure we will be a little more sharing as time passes, but at the moment, we just like to be together, alone.

"Really?! How far away are you?" A question that I always ask because, well, a girl's gotta brush her hair, her teeth, put a lil perfume on... Usually, he says, "About an hour and a half away."

This time I hear:

knock knock knock

"Is Linda there?"

Insert running downstairs and jumping on him. Gah, I really should work on a desire to have some dignity.

So, then it's both of us gonna sleep on the air mattress downstairs. This obviously means a cramp in the nookie getting agenda as I half heartedly regretted giving up my room.

Did we or didn't we? I had it in my karma, I was owed, I collected.

So anyhow.

We went to the meeting together on Sunday. We were both very nervous because the 2 of us were obviously together this time. Previously, there were only comments and glances, and nothing but their own assumptions. But now, there was something for them to see, a statement to make, and we were both nervous.

The election was held (new board members) and thankfully, the person that I preferred got President. Very thankfully.

There is a hippy retreat this coming weekend to which Dusty and I will both be going. It is at my favorite camp location and I am anxious to see the place in it's fall colors. Usually I see it in it's winter glory.

Anyhow, gotta get motivated.
