...well, not really. But it is 2 AM. Things have definitely gotten a lot more interesting since BM. I'm getting even less done with the house than before, but it doesn't matter so much. I have socializing to do!!
It's very strange how much of a night-and-day contrast this relationship is as compared to my last. The dating I did in-between was really too brief to provide contrast, so it's going to be excluded. But the last boy was trouble, and not in the charmingly adorable sense. In addition to the long distance thing, it seemed that he was obliging, but begrudgingly. Attentive, but only sporadically. And if I wasn't in the room, I wasn't worth consideration.
Case in point, last night I went out with a trio of girls, C-Aus, J-Aus, and E-Aus, the former two I will be going abroad with in the near future and the latter one of my sometimes co-workers in the lab. C-Aus's friend has an 80's cover band that was playing at Cedar Street last night [which ROCKS, by the way. He has fantastic energy and a great stage presence.]. It was originally the plan that I was going to go alone, but when I mentioned the words "80's cover band", he got interested and came out. We had a whole lot of fun and he seemed to enjoy hanging out with my work-set (hooray for guys that can enjoy themselves while hanging out with MY friends!!). And there was dancing!
That'll cement a person into my good graces indefinitely, if there is dancing. Even if I forget the steps or lose the beat or get my foot glanced, it's the effort that counts. How does it go? (From "My Best Friend's Wedding)
"...you think, 'What the hell? Life goes on.' Maybe there won't be marriage. Maybe there won't be sex. But by God, there will be dancing!"
Exactly.
I am super-excited about Spain, but nervous because I'm not going with Mars this time. I also won't (likely) be single, so I guess that rules out that random-hot-Aussie action I was looking forward to. *grins*
