The Weekend

WARNING: VERY LONG POST ABOUT MY WEEKEND … But it is totally worth reading.
Where do I begin … My plan for the weekend was to have a chilled Friday at home, go to the movies and a few pints on Saturday and then do some running around Sunday during the day and then have Awesome over for dinner. It didn’t exactly happened that way and yet in a way it did.

Friday was as I had planned, stayed in made a stir fry, played scrabble with roomie and her boyfriend watched a movie and went to bed by midnight.

Saturday GB and I went to the mall to do some shopping, he for a computer and me for a cocktail dress for Awesome’s Christmas party. The Mall was insane. Here in the west Remembrance Day is observed as a holiday so it was a long weekend making everything about the mall annoying. GB and I lasted about an hour before we got mall rage and had to leave for our mental health. We then met up with Roomie and her boyfriend to go to movies. They had arrived before us and bought the tickets. When we walked in Roomie said, “Awesome is in the arcade.”

Sidebar – I refer to lots of people on this site by nicknames such as GB, CMG, OQB, and Roomie. In real life I never refer to them that way, but Awesome is actually called Awesome by everyone I know (accept Awesome). So when I say Roomie and her boyfriend said Awesome is here they truly said “Awesome is here” … but back to the story …

I went into the arcade, wandered up to Awesome and his best friend as they were shooting up a storm and said “so are you saving the world?” They both turned to me and instantly I knew they were hammered, not tipsy, not drunk, but hammered. They were both surprised and happy to see me. They proceeded to explained that they had been at the Remembrance Day ceremonies in the morning, but had been drinking since about noon (it was now almost 7pm) and that they were going to continue partying and I should join them. I let them know I was going to the movies now but would call them afterward and meet up with them.

After the movie I made a plan to meet the boys, but before I could I needed to run home, shave and change. I was wearing casual Saturday night at the movie clothes, not in an “I am a fabulous party girl” outfit. I also was planning to see Awesome on Sunday not Saturday so there was some maintenance that needed to happen before I could go out on the town.

I met Awesome and his gang at a pub where we proceeded to have some shooters and something called swamp water then we were off to the dance bar. My outfit choice was perfect, a great new party shirt that really shows off my “assets”. One more shooter with Awesome’s best friend (ABF) and then we hit the dance floor.

Sidebar number 2 - I just scrolled back through old posts and realize that I have omitted the fact that Awesome is 7 years younger than me. That is right this fabulous 30 year old is running around with a 23 year old, and on Saturday I was running around with him and his 22 year old best friend. So …

ABF and I hit the dance floor … where was Awesome you ask? Why getting a hotel room across the street for everyone to party in, of course … The music was great - funk and soul - and the dance floor that was packed. ABF left me to go and pick up a cute girl on the dance floor and Awesome came back and we danced for a while, then the three of us decided to go to the hotel lounge for a night cap.

On the way back to the lounge ABF excitingly told Awesome that the girl he just picked up was 29! “Oh my 29” I said, Awesome and I shared a look and laughed. “So?” said Awesome and we giggled at ABF again as we got a drink and lounged for a bit. ABF drank about half his cocktail and then left in a stupor commenting that Awesome and I had the room to ourselves so we should head on up there. So we did.

The room was fantastic. It was a suite with a king size bed, a couch, a couple of chairs a full deep bathtub and a front room. We made use of just about all the furniture including having a bath at around 1:30am. I do have to put a shout out to CMG, GB and OQB for the tips they gave me a few weeks ago. I took your advice - Awesome thanks you, I thank you and I am sure all my future lovers thank you. Trust me when I tell you dear readers that no one gives sex advice quite like a gay man.

Well I think this post is long enough, but let’s just say Sunday was pretty painful. Awesome still came over for dinner in the evening and we had soufflé, salad and fresh bread and then vegged in from of the TV for a few hours and looked through my closet for the right outfit for his party.

I think it is weekends like this that warrant having a blog.

Hope you enjoyed!
