The more recent past

Well hi there February. I shall welcome you. For whatever reason I despise January, no offense big J, but I just don't enjoy starting off with you.

I do suppose it is time to divulge what has come to pass in this new life town. These first encounters happened before my declaration of love, but since they concern the new life, I thought I should include a few of who I've met so far.

My first encounter with a fellow gay happened soon after I moved here. The usual story, go online, talk to a college guy that seems nice... We decide to hang out and watch a movie, oh so innocent. Next thing I know, nakedness, and he's demanding that I paw at his balls like a cat would to yarn, yet, the noises he makes are oddly like a dying beast of burden. We talk at the end, the usual civilness, "you have my number, let's hang again, etc..." Haven't seen him sense, and I'm ok with that.

Next... I get set up with a friend of a friend of a friend, the classic blind date. We have so much in common to talk about! Fabulous dinner! The stars must have aligned and smiled upon me! We set up another date as soon as possible! Before our next date, a certain holiday has arrived, and while alone for it, I decided I'm a fun fancy and carefree young man, so I decide to go out for a bit. Going out alone can be awkward for me at first, but I can usually find my groove. However, it's a bit hard to find that groove when you run into your blind date and his boyfriend of a year that he neglected to tell you about. Needless to say, above mentioned second date did not happen. Balls.
