I've been enjoying life with my friends and haven't bothered with boys for the past couple months, and it's been delightful. With that statement out there, I will now confess that I gave my number out last night. My friends and I welcomed Fifty-six to our dance party at the bar and found out that he was fun as he participated in our dance category game (i.e. be a kitchen appliance, be a farmer, be something from the aquarium...you know, just your standard dance moves). We also learned that he was in town from Brooklyn for a wedding and some DJ gigs, as in he was about to DJ a set for us. My friends had to leave before his set was finished, but I stuck around and kept dancing until he was finished. We talked and danced for a few songs, and then as I was about to write down my number and tell him to call me so I could be his SF tour guide, he asked where I was going. I told him that I needed to go catch my bus, and he replied that if I didn't mind staying a little longer he could drive me home. In retrospect, maybe I should have seen a flashing sign of "STRANGER DANGER" but I'm a pretty good judge of character and felt like I knew this guy well enough that I'd be safe (and I was). So dance we did until the lights came on and the music stopped, then it was time for us to go. We talked about music a lot and how he tries to not be obsessed with Star Wars but was excited to go see some Star Wars exhibit, at which point I told him, "Now, I don't want you to fall in love with me because you live across the country, but I do have a dress made out of Star Wars sheets." Lovestruck instantly, I'm sure.
When he pulled up to my place we talked for a bit (and yes, kissed a lot, too - yay!), and I finally told him, "Not to be presumptuous, but seriously I love this town and have some free time this week if you want company on any SF adventures while you're here." Fifty-six frankly said, "Well, I probably won't call." I told him, "I like your honesty. If you don't call, you don't call, no big deal." Then he saved my number in his phone anyway and kissed me good night.
Things I really like: honesty and kissing.
