I am too tired to write full recount of all that has taken place this past weekend, but suffice it to say, things could have turned out very very very good or horribly wrong…  I am lucky to be graced with the very good despite my intentions to sabotage…  Here are some highlights:

1) Saturday evening, 11/21 went to “The Edison” for snack and drinks…  This was with co-workers… It was supposed to be a birthday dinner with reservation, but that didn’t pan out… Still had fun as we went to China Bistro after…  The bar is very very chic!

2) Sunday up to take my spiritual mentee to Gladstone’s in Malibu, followed by a trip to the Grove to buy tickets early to see 2012 with my bud I went to see the Leonids with as well as Star Wars in Concert…  I napped for the rest of the afternoon

3) Went to my spiritual meeting from 6P – 7:30P… It was a fun and full meeting!  I got to sit next to my best bud…

4) I drove over to my bud’s place and picked him up then over to Grove for the movie night… We messed around in the car of the parking lot followed by a quick dinner at Cheesecake Factory, then the movie…  Here are the highlights of this evening:

 a) I stepped on a pile of poo!!!  Ew!!!

 b) I wanted it to be a date, but worried to call it a date…  I treated it as if it wasn’t eventhough we held hands, made out, had movie and dinner… LOL…  It was walking back to the car from the movie when my bud mentioned that he didn’t bring his cell phone because that he never does when he’s on a date… He treated Star Wars as well as the Leonids as date nights… Hmmm…  I was shocked to hear him first share that he considered tonight a date…  Next that he was worried all day long about our date tonight… Awe… That hopefully means he likes me and wants me to like him too!

 c) I learned that bringing a cell phone to a date is poor dating etiquette… I shouldn’t have told my date that he smelled like “gardenia” flowers as it was a cologne he was very proud of…  I should’ve just assumed that he wanted to date me as much as I wanted to ask him out on a date!

Lastly, here is the part that is grace as my perception since the night with the Leonids went sooo poorly in my mind…  I was hoping for more, but was convinced it wasn’t going anywhere as I thought he was happy with what we had, just sex…  I was sooo convinced that I had given up on the idea that anything would come of this… I almost ended up relapsing with some superficial schmuck… Thank goodness I didn’t follow through…

This could have been a remake of my date with Sean 1.5 years ago!  Where I got loaded the night before and destroyed any opportunity for something wonderful…  I came just that close last night and could’ve thrown everything away again… I couldn’t be more grateful, I have smart feet and didn’t allow my very very smart brain to try to take over and tell me what is best! 

Time for sleepy… I am incredibly grateful right now…
