This coming Thursday would be the second week that I have not seen Rich since our last meeting, which was at his place for pizza dinner and some coctails. That night was awesome! He got off early that day to go shopping for ingredients (I think that was really cute!) and I said to him I was very disappointed I didn’t get to go grocery shopping with him. Anyway, he also bought two kinds of wine: Simi and Chaetaue St. Jean — both very good! We enjoyed each other that night with some good pizza and cocktails. Very relaxing, indeed!
Well, after our deep conversation last Thursday, which was a week after the pizza dinner, we didn’t talk at any time Friday, or Saturday, or Sunday. Pretty much the whole weekend - until I got a phone call from him on Sunday at around 2:00 pm. Unfortunately, I was at the store grocery shopping for goodies for last night’s dinner. I had people over so I had to shop for stuff…and wack the weeds! Yea, tell me about it. I’ve been meaning to get that part of my chores done like almost a month ago - but I motivated myself to do that before my friends came over.
So I called him back and left him a voice message telling him I was busy and didn’t get the chance to call him until around 6:30 last night. I was apologetic about it. He said he would call me over the weekend, which he did. I give him that credit!
Anyway, he called me today to see how I’m doing and see what I’m up to. He went up to Pennsylvania for a business meeting early this morning but he came back like around 6:30. After 30 minutes or so he called to say what’s up and to tell me how his day and weekend was. He was busy doing his own thing and I was, too. Then he sort of told me his schedule this week, which is kind of busy of his traveling. I told him “Hey, what can you do? Do the job if that is what it is.” I bluntly said to him I will have a busy week as well. In fact, I’m coming up to a whole lot of stuff right now during this time of the year: the tail-end of the programmatic development I’ve been workin on, then quite a number of marketing and advertising stuff for my other clients.
In any case we sort of talked for about 15-20 minutes letting each other know our schedules this week, then he said he’d touch base again with me towards the end of this week. Well, I told him right away I will have a busy weekend: going to a museum art in Manassas with my roommate; go to some local fair that involves lots of pumpkins and apple-cider; go golfing at a driving range right at my backyard (I recently discovered there’s a golf driving range few lights away from me…so yay!); have dinner with my friend Jeannie and her girlfriend Marisol (both Peruvians) and Jabari at a restaurant (we haven’t decided where we’re going); and hang out with Gino probably at TOWN.
And on Sunday I’ll visit my Mom since I haven’t really visited her recently. I miss her and so with my stepdad, so I will try and pay them a visit at some point this weekend. I will try and get my brother and his girlfriend to come, too, since I haven’t seen them either. Well, my brother having two jobs is kind of difficult to get together. In any case I’ll bug him to go with me to Woodbridge.
So I said all that to say this: I’m very appreciative that Rich took the time/chance to call me tonight. Quite frankly, yes, I’m tickled. But again, don’t bet everything you got. I’m kind of holding back and let him come and meet me in the middle. And I think that’s the game he and I are playing…let’s see who is going to win or give in. That is almost predictable (If I’m the one judging it) but we shall see what will happen.
Taking baby steps…maybe…but ideally that is what it should be. So I’ll do that for now while living casually.
Here’s my horoscope for this week. Again, this is just hypothetical but it does look promising. We’ll see.
Contacts and communication feature throughout the week, but the angle is definitely positive. Something is likely to keep you on your toes: a snippet of news or a tantalizing bit of information should be pursued and explored further. It is an excellent week to think in the long term and now is a great time to share your thoughts and plans with a trusted friend. They may well have some useful advice for you! Thursday’s planets hint at a secret admirer!
