Oh lord. What a day. What a week. What I thought would be a pretty laid back week was anything but. Work was crazy and Layla was sick. Not a good combo! Tuesday afternoon I met "Random" for a drink. I like this one. He's still pretty random, but I like him and think I would have a great time with him. We have a lot in common and even have a few mutual friends. It was a great date and we were laughing about all our crazy dates we've had. He said I have the perfect excuse to get out of a date, just act like my daughter is sick and leave. About 20 minutes after he said that, daycare called and Layla was in fact sick (running a fever). We laughed pretty hard, but needless to say the date ended a little earlier than I had hoped. In the 10 minutes it took me to go into her school and get her, he had already text and called me, text again to tell me to call him. So obliged and called him. He just wanted to make sure I had a good time. We decided maybe we would hang out again Wednesday night. I'll get to that in a minute...
I had actually double booked myself for Tuesday and McScotty was coming over that night to cook me dinner. He came over and made an amazing dinner (after Layla went to bed). So we were sitting there watching TV and all the sudden he looks at me and says, "Ya know, we would make beautiful kids. I can't wait for you to get pregnant with my baby". WHOA WHOA WHOA. BACK YOUR SHIT UP! I think the look on my face said it all and he immediately apologized for making me uncomfortable. I knew right then (well, I had had these thoughts before) that I need to get rid of him. That pretty much sealed the deal. Thank goodness Layla woke up about 10:30pm and I was able to kick him out. Of course it was pouring down rain and he didn't want to carry all the stuff he had brought over the make dinner out to his car so he left it here. So part of me is being a complete chicken, the other part is trying to figure out the best timing for telling him "so long". We are suppose to be going out to dinner tomorrow night. We'll see what happens. He has to have a clue because I really haven't talked to him (aside from a few texts here and there) since that night. I feel bad because he was telling me the other night that although the drama in his life has settled down, he was just so peaceful when he was with me, couldn't imagine not having me in his life, blah blah blah! In no way should you take this as me having a big head, but I am really going to hurt this guy. I don't want to, but I am. I can hear you now, "Chicken, Chicken, balk balk balk". And yes, you would be accurate.
So during my date with McScotty, "Random" sent me a few texts. I didn't text him back so I think he thought I was completely blowing him off. We had planned to get together the next night (Wed). He sent me a text about 3:30p telling me he had just got home from flying. We exchanged just a few texts which as always, were totally random. He does these 2-3 word texts and I just don't know him well enough to know what he means. So that was around 4pm. Didn't hear from him so I sent him a text after I got Layla to bed at 9pm. He replied that I had 'dissed' him. What? To be honest, I was exhausted so I was quite glad we didn't get together but I sure as hell didn't think I dissed him. He never called or text to make plans definite. Granted I didn't either but whatever. We have had just a few texts back and forth sense then, but not much. I am kicking myself thinking I completely screwed this one up. I really think I could have liked him. We'll see if he comes around, but for now, he's MIA.
But, there are a few others on the horizon out there. Stay tuned....
