I used to live right down the street from an Argentine Tango studio. I must have driven past it a thousand times. Then in the summer of '04, on my way to a Cherry Tarts show, I finally stopped in to check it out. Lots of people having fun, younger than me, my age, older. A real social crowd without the usual boundaries. And a...

Saturday night: Vietnamese food, conversation, tango dancing, flirting, somewhat more personal conversation, "I'm not that kind of girl," drive home. Still, I got to hold her close, dance, and smell her hair. And she said yes to a second date.

Also, I love picting. If I can wake up for it, I mean.

sounds like a great idea!! 
I have a date Saturday. A friend of a friend I met a few weeks ago. This girl has a very unusual, very intense energy. I can't tell whether I am going to get action on the first date or if she's a wait-until-we're-almost-married type. But there will be dinner, and tango, and at least a little flirting. Can't complain.

I think, for the most part, women expect us to swing for the fence. As men that's what we do. They're used to it by now. Of course that doesn't mean they like it or are going to give it up. I've found they prefer a little mystery, "does he like me? He didn't even try to kiss me". Girls like it when we play coy. But I could be wrong. I never swing for the fence the first time around mainly out of fear of rejection but I'm a coward like that. So did anything good happen? Anytime you're up for fire night at DP let me know, I'm just about always down for that!
Do you want to know the sad story of my life? Well neither of us has time for that. But the sad story of the past year or so is "I just started seeing someone." Every. Damn. Time.
I don't sweep girls off of their feet. It takes me about two lunches and a walk in the park to really relax and open up. Then...

What a sticky game. It is hurtful.
We should dance the frustration away. I need to come up and say hi sometime.

Oops there is a double post there! Who did that?
Klamath Falls is ok. I am finally making some friends with people in my program. They are actually people I want to spend time with outside of school which in nice.
The boy and I are going to be visiting the portland area during the month of December. I here Pirate Thursdays are happening still. It would be cool to say hi again in person,

OK, so I spent about an hour putting together a "20 interesting things" list. Now it's not here. So, did it get lost in the ether, or did I accidentally post it as a comment to someone's journal? I've tried tracking my last few comments and nothing stands out. It may be lost. Does that mean the gods of cyberspace consider it not interesting enough?...

One time, at church camp...!
Busy day ahead. Visiting in-laws, going to work, shaving my head, painting it with liquid latex . . .
Busy, busy, busy.
So it turns out my SG e-mail was broken. I think I have it fixed.
Minor surgery next Wednesday, so I'm all about livin' it up this weekend.
No flying since July. I'm jonesin' pretty bad. I've set aside two days to go...

So which one were you at the party last night?
missmyla:
Ah! Nice costume, by the way. Me? I was the MC for the evening... you know, the fairy.
Life is settling down just a teeny little bit. I think I only worked 40 hours this week. A friend came over and helped me unpack and now it's liveable, with only a few dozen boxes scattered about. I'm seriously thinking about paying someone to take care of my yard. Welcome to the bourgeois. Somewhere someone is signing me up for the Sharper Image catalog.
ryan:
i hate yard work. don't ask me!!
Well, I took about a year off from the site. It's such an unbelievable time-waster, y'know? But when Spooky e-mailed me with a special old-skooler's offer, how could I refuse? Hot naked girls, journals, and popular culture galore! I've been so out of the loop lately, I had to read about the horse fucking a guy to death in Washington, right across the border, from...

Welcome to SGPDX
I'm out of town through July 5. You all have fun here without me, you hear? Save me some stories.
corvus:
Have a great trip!
I don't get it. One day I'm on top of the world - great kids, great house, great job, hang gliding, firedancing, good friends, cute girls giving me hugs, the works. I am complete and content.
And the next day I am this sucking void of need and frustration, casting about desperately, searching for love, sex, and affirmation.
Apparently, socially, I have been coming off...

Appriciation
Heh. Told my friends I was into a girl and complained about not having a clue when it comes to signs and signals and taking things to the next level. My sexual history consists largely of freshly-broken-up girls rebounding into me and throwing themselves at me. I hadn't realized how out of touch I was with the pursuit end of things until I started chasing...

I am being the bitchingest daddy these days. Good food (trout Sunday, pork chops and potatos today), baths, clean clothes - the kitchen is even clean. The toll, of course, is that plus work I'm not sleeping.
