Finally called the Great Dane woman. Her dog has the same name as my ex's cat:
Madassin.

I am 1/2 way through my second day of cold turkey not smoking, I can't believe I even wanted to call anybody, my mind is like a multiple vehicle accident, and its not purdy.
"with or without you" is playing on CBC right now. U2.

"on a bed of nails, she makes me wait...
and I wait, without you"

SO yeah, I called the great dane woman. I mentioned that I got a gay vibe off of her no? yeah, yeah I mentioned that.

the names have been changed to protect the innocent.

So just now, I call her. Hoping for an answering machine, and she answers:
"hello?"
"hello, Tatiana?" I say.
"Hi! Is this Christopher?" she asks.
"Yeah, Hi! How's Maddasin's mom? This is Morgan's dad"

"She's away for a week, up on the sunshine coast" she says, and I am suddenly concerned that perhaps I just lost the reason to meet with her.
"Oh," I reply,
---ok dude, either do this, or don't .. do this or just hang up and don't call back..... come ON... where is it... just fucking bite down and go for it-- dUUUUUude COME ON! Finally after a bit of a pause that seemed like 2 minutes on my end (but was probably only about 2 seconds) I say
"well, that doesn't preclude you and I still going out and doing something today if you'd like".
There, said it. did it. See what happens with that.

She asks me what I'm doin right now, and I tell her I just quit smoking and I am manically cleaning and re-arranging my apartment.
"ha!" she says, "my ex is doing the exact same thing. I was just over at her place and she is ripping up the whole house."

ok, there it is. The social "i'm gay" new conversation warning. That's ok, I'm fine with that. I am not terribly surprised. Who knows, maybe she's bi?
Then she tells me that she just quit smoking too. A month ago. She almost had one last night, because she got a really cute girl home, and she was really really nervous and wanted a cigarette. Finally the cute girl said to her:
"if you kiss me, you will not need a cigarette".
I said "DAMN! That's what I need!, Good Job!"

ahh, there we go, we've broken through the gay thing now, now we're just two people talking about those crazy chicks, man, I need to get me one of them crazy chicks.
"So what are your plans for today then?"
I ask her.
She tells me that she wants to come down town to see me. Maybe we can go for coffee?.
"Sure," I say, "That'd be great. I'll see you in an hour?"

and so there it is. My first date, (is this a date?) and its with a lesbian. Doesn't bother me at all. Sure, she's beautiful, sexy, and quite possibly not into men. Doesn't really matter, I'm still not looking for a quick shag here, I just want to meet some new people and talk.
I need some good people in my life, I have a few slots recently come up


Ok, it looks like a bomb went off in here. and I'm leaving for Melriches.
