Bye Bye Bus Buddy

So last night was the last time my favorite Bus Buddy would be joining me on our daily trip to and from work. Oh no! What am I supposed to call him no?!? This is a big thing to talk about, it's not like I can just switch his name and anyone know what I am talking about. Oh well, whether he likes it or not, he'll ALWAYS BE MY Bus Buddy....We have shared some good laughs and especially some really good stories of just every day life and this I will miss. Now is where I could get all sappy and stupid but that's just not me and if he is reading this on some off chance, I think he'd laugh his azz off and tell me to get over it (or something just as sarcastic). So I would like to say thanks for being such a good friend and listening to me bitch and whine, and not getting me back for slapping you to wake you up. Have fun in your next journey and you better keep me up to date on your city escapades and dating extravaganzas too!

MMM MMM MMM

Oh what a holiday season...this whole new dating thing I thought could use some time apart so we didn't get sick of each other too soon, but it was anything but. Talking every day on the phone at least twice, emailing, chatting, etc throughout the rest of the day. Then when I got back I was "told" not to leave for that long again, he missed me too much. Me being the hopeless romantic I am thought this was all so sweet, and seeing as I saw him Wednesday morning before work and then came home Friday night a little after ten, thought this would be a perfect time away. I got greeted like I had been away for weeks or even months. The scary part of all of it is I am slowly slipping into bliss; you know that feeling where unless you step back and take a breath it could be falling into love and letting all your defenses down. At first I wasn't very sure at if I'd ever be happy again like that (it's on of those where you know you can be but don't want to try because you've been let down too many times before.). But I don't think that I have smiled and laughed ever like this before, it's been nice to just relax and not be bouncing around all over the place. One of the best things so far is the help to quit something that I've just had so much struggle doing before; it's that smoking thing. He doesn't smoke and doesn't like it and therefore won't kiss me if I smoked so I think it's a fair trade. I've also noticed that with him, my passion for cooking and trying new dishes has been renewed and I can hardly wait to get home and just let loose not only in the kitchen but everywhere else.

CP part 2

So what a excellent weekend this was, spent the whole weekend together and just getting to know one another and hanging out. The best part he even let me watch my football game though think he wanted to watch a movie. I know I shouldn't get too far ahead of myself but I smile every time I think about him and even more so when he is around. Usually I am the reserved and shy person who has to be pried open for any type of information, but with him I feel like I can just volunteer the information with no worries. Oh what it is like to be happy and comfortable in front of another...mmmmmmm...

"Carpet Man"

So two dates in two days...ahhh what a feeling, especially when you get along so well and feel completely relaxed around the other person. I had seen him around before and always just thought of him as a player and didn't give him a second glance. Then last weekend he came over to clean the carpets at the apartment and I couldn't help but staring at him, especially when he bent over...hee hee hee... Once all was said and done we were outside just talking about life and even though I was frozen to the core I couldn't bring myself to go inside to warm up. It was finally him who had to leave and so I had but no choice but to say goodbye.

It was the next day and he had called my friends phone to talk with me since he didn't have the guts to have asked the day before for mine. Well he ended up inviting me to hang out possibly the next day after work, for a drink or something. I had almost chickened out at the last minute because I was unsure of what I was getting myself into. Let me just tell you that I am so glad that I didn't, I don't think that I have laughed that hard in a long time; almost to the point of falling off of my chair. we then went back to my house and ended up staying up until all hours talking and learning about each other, completely nonsexual in any way.

Then yesterday I was on cloud nine with the night before replaying over and over in my mind and having trouble hiding my smile all day. He had even called me to say that he was thinking of me and what a good time he had hanging out and even that he would like to see me again that night...So by this time there was a extra hop in my step and smile on my face.

Well of course I couldn't say no and was looking very forward to it even more. This time though was movies and talking at his house, and surprisingly I wasn't uncomfortable at all. Now all I have on my mind is him and really can't wait to see him again! More to come later I'm sure!

MY "bus buddy"

Though you may find it hard to understand, you must know the content of my mind and style, as well as the situation in entirety...just never say that I didn't give you forewarning...
There's always a story and adventure that I have come to expect and mostly, anticipate each morning as we load onto that trip to great ole work each day. Two days have stuck out about this boy and though he may be venturing out into the bigger better world, I know that I will have to relish in these thoughts, for no more recaps of what the weekend held for him and his latest female adventure. Now how this is fair, I don't think I will ever fully understand that in any way...yet I need someone to live vicariously through and he fits the bill. So in case I forget to show my gratitude, much thanks to this bus buddy for letting me have some type of fun even if it really was not me do the experiencing...But not as to jump too soon into this because alas we have at least one more week and that means a weekend in between for more stories to build and add to the ever changing status of where and what he does...
