Good morning!

Have a great day!

Good morning handsome!

Another delicious dim sum dinner at PF Chang!

 Phil 

Had a very nice conversation with the Beach Gal today. Our birthday is coming up. Talked about her boy who is at sea and she is getting married in November. Too quick in my opinion. All her friends hate the guy. Just makes her more determined. I truly wish her happiness. I will love her always.  Can’t help it. 

Been working 14 hour days down here. Tired. Hope your day was good. Feeling a little heartbroken and desolate but my own fault. Can’t help but feel that if she met this guy in March and is marrying him in November, I ever meant that much to her.  Some days life is good, some days it sucks.

10:57pm  
Hiya kid.  Good that you can still talk… don’t take her choices personally.  You know it’s way more complicated than that.  Or just that simple.  

I had a quiet night… packing to go to Maine with Kris tomorrow.  May be off the grid until Sunday but will still be thinking of you.  Mwah!

11:04pm Phil 

I don’t take it personally. We talked and we laughed and it was like it always was. He is there and available and I am not. The fact that she still cares says a lot to me. She seems happy though and I would never begrudge her that.  

Have fun in Maine! Enjoy the weekend, have fun.

11:10pm
Listen to the song I just posted on my wall.  Worth a smile.
  

“Your Man” sung by Willie Jones

“Your Man” is track #4 on the album Your Man. It was written by Jace Everett, Charles Christopher  Dubois,  and Christopher Alvin Stapleton. 

Baby lock the door and turn the lights down low
Put some music on that’s soft and slow
Baby we ain’t got no place to go
I hope you understand

Chorus
I’ve been thinking ’bout this all day long
Never felt a feeling quite this strong
I can’t believe how much it turns me on
Just to be your man

There’s no hurry
Don’t you worry we can take our time
Come a little closer
Let’s go over what I had in mind

Chorus
Ain’t nobody ever love nobody
The way that I love you
We’re alone now
You don’t know how long I’ve wanted to

Chorus 2x
I can’t believe how much it turns me on
Just to be your man
11:19pm Phil 
Loved it, thank you

11:20pm
Those bass notes he hits make me tingle!

11:21pm Phil 
Yeah baby, what fun

12:17am Phil 

Had another amazing chat with The Beach Gal. Wow! Was nice.


Travel plans

Tuesday, September 16, 2014
Kris: Friday is supposed to be sunny but on the cool side.  high of only 60.  little cool on bike. Saturday supposed to be warmer.  high of 70. maybe leave Saturday.  spend night someplace.  but would need to bring you home by 1:00 on Sunday.  I have to be home Sunday by 2:30.  Also, as far as where we go, would you be interested in seacoast ride thru NH into southern ME instead of R.I. or Gloucester?.  .Part of reason is helmuts.  only one really fits both of us.  I wouldn’t have to wear in NH or ME.  you could wear mine…didn’t that fit when u tried it on?  I know the full helmet with shield was too small for u and it’s tight on me. 1:30 PM
Me: Sounds great! 1:53 PM
Kris: Ok to have u back by 1:00 on Sunday? 1:57 PM
Kris: still need to have lunch with mom on Saturday.  leave after that? and finally, can u split costs?  don’t want to stress u out but money’s really tight lately.   2:09 PM
Me: Sounds fine – timing, paying. 2:11 PM
Kris: Ok.  great!.  I’ll find place to stay. tell me pick up time on Sat.  I’ll make every effort to be on time. (for a change)! 2:16 PM
Me: What time is good Saturday? Want to have lunch with Mom or no? 2:28 PM
Kris: Any time Saturday is fine. Wouldn’t mind having lunch with mom…but would feel funny not paying for everyone since we kidded about that last time. But can’t afford to. 3:46 PM
Me: I can get out of lunch with Mom. With you on your bike it doesn’t quite work anyway. I’ll do her pills tonight and can be ready anytime you say on Saturday. This is going to be so fun! 4:27 PM
Kris: You’re a great sport! You will be safe.  but wear a diaper just in case (you shit your pants).  .JUST KIDDING!  shopping for place to stay.  will let u know pick up time later.  Persistent Alfalfa 😉 4:53 PM
Kris: The place I want to stay only has one room left.  two double beds.  can you live with “enough room to have sex.  cuddle a little”.  but then I’d move to other bed to actually sleep.  …or would you rather I find other place with queen bed? 6:01 PM
Me: Whatever you think. Maybe call hotel for q room? Sometimes they have rooms they don’t offer online. 6:06 PM
Kris: Did call.  I’ll keep looking.  sounds like you’d prefer queen…me too.  found Ramada marked down from 169 to 116.   125 with tax.   63 each. That too much? can find cheaper.  but Ramada nice place. Open to what you’d like.  budget.  let me know.  don’t be shy 😉 6:13 PM
Kris: Changed mind.  going with Hotwire.  $79 total.   40 each.  won’t know exact hotel till after I book.  so little gamble. but had good luck in past.  so “pulling trigger”.  will let u know shortly “what we got” for 79 bucks!   🙂 6:26 PM
Kris: Nope.  still searching.  didn’t guarantee bed size.  I’ll find something! 6:32 PM
Kris: Ok! Done! King bed with ocean view.  Sea Breeze Motel.  Bar Harbor, ME… 99! Put your big girl panties on.  you’re going for a gorgeous but LONG motorcycle ride with a nice man who will go slow and make sure you are safe. Give me the earliest time possible to pick you up on Saturday. I’ll be there…and on time! I’m excited! (No not like that…but we’ll work on that too. Don’t forget toys this time. 😉 6:55 PM
Me: Wow! 9 am? 7:01 PM
Kris: Ok.  but I think I acted a little impulsively. it’s awfully far for one day trip.  and really didn’t want to be on highway. if I pay for another night.  could you leave work early Friday.  spend Friday night in Portland, head to Bar Harbor Saturday morning. Plus, you get two chances for poor to fair sex instead of just one. Your contribution for room stays at 50.  my mistake/poor planning. Can’t cancel Saturday room in Bar Harbor.  online non-cancel deal. Watcha think? 7:10 PM
Me: Sure. I have a lunch meeting, could leave by 2:30? Or cancel lunch if you need earlier. 7:12 PM
Kris: 2:30 would be early enough.  at your place? would we avoid Friday rush hour at 2:30? 7:15 PM
Kris: Fri nite staying at Grand Beach Inn, Old Orchard Beach.  Hotwire deal for only 62.69.  decent place for price.  don’t know what size beds.  can see at: www.grandbeachinnmaine.com 7:59 PM
Me: Those hotels look wonderful! Thank you ever so much for dealing with all that. 9:07 PM
Kris: I actually think it’s fun…you’re welcome! Pick u up at your condo at 2:30? Think we’ll miss Fri rush hour traffic? 9:26 PM
Me: Can you pick me up at work instead? 9:29 PM
Kris: Sure.  will u be able to bring everything? Don’t let the toys fall out of the bag at your desk. Picture your evil boss holding one up asking, “What’s this little silver ball with a cord and switch for?” And you say, “This AM guy’s trying to convert me to a clit girl…still prefer a good hard fucking…but the little ball feels amazingly good!” You can see yourself having that conversation… right? LOL 9:41 PM
Me: Plan to have just my duffle. Can you strap that on the bike somehow? You are a bad bad man… I like that. 9:46 PM
Kris: It will fit easily inside the tour pack (compartment behind the seat).  or some can go in side “bags”…no problem…2:30 then? What’s the address? 9:50 PM
Me: [my work address] 9:52 PM
Kris: Dress very warmly.  winter jacket.  gloves.  scarf.  think “70 mph wind chill” (not directly…cuz windshield/faring/behind me will shelter you).  but can get chilly.  especially Friday when temps are low. 9:56 PM
Kris: Could u look for a restaurant to stop at on the way Friday night, someplace near Wells, Kennebunk or Kennebunkport.  where we should be around 6:30-7.  if that’s not too long to wait. Or a little south of there, like Ogunquit.  thanks! 12:16 AM

Risk life and limb

Monday, September 15, 2014
Kris: OMG. FINALLY.!!!!!! You really are incorrigible! Willing to risk life and limb.  just to get laid.  and not all that well (give you quarter later).  when? where to? R.I.? 9:00 AM
Me: My goodness you’re insulting this morning! To both of us! My week is open except Tuesday evening. Could take an afternoon off if you like, or focus on the weekend. Not sure about RI vs Gloucester. You have a preference? 11:58 AM
Kris: L0L…”my goodness”?  “insulting”? Too “sensitive/gentle.” Where’s your sense of humor?! (Put Sassy on the phone…she’ll come back with something sarcastic like: “Ha, ha…wise guy…and that will be $1 for the massive self-deprecation.”) If you could get Friday afternoon off that might work.  but need to see what schedule looks like first.  should know by Wed. Either Gloucester or R.I.  no preference. can u afford to split the costs?  serious financial pressure lately.  but want to get a room.  maybe spend night? 12:29 PM
Me: Sounds so good. We’ll work it out. 5:01 PM

Kris: 🙂 5:31 PM

Quid pro quo

Sunday, September 14, 2014
Me: Hiya! Hope you’re having a good day. 6:23 PM

Kris: Hi, had 2 dates in last 2 days – both were 2nd dates. 

1) yesterday had dinner on the shores of Lake Champlain in VT (175 miles from my house…350 mile round trip last night just for a dinner date!) older lady, pretty, nice, but still raising too many kids (has total two dozen or so combined bio, step and adopted kids!) went back to her house after dinner and met a number of them. – really nice kids…huge gorgeous house in upscale neighborhood, but just too much with all the kids.  and though she’s pretty… age is showing a little too much (of course, age is not showing on ME at all. I still look 21. LOL). will b gently saying goodbye to her. 9:56 PM

Kris: 2) Today had “dream date” 2nd date – pretty, funny, smart, my age. Decided to go on first bike ride of her life! I wanted you to take the real “virgin ride” but, alas…today’s date was the first woman to take a real ride. Picked her up at apartment at 9:30 this morning, took seashore roads all the way up into Maine. Gorgeous ride and day.  She thought she would be scared, but ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! had brunch – very ritzy….gorgeous site on ocean. next text is VERY IMPORTANT!!!!! 10:13 PM

Kris: I WANT U TO FORCE YOURSELF TO LET ME GIVE U RIDE ON BIKE TO THAT BOATHOUSE IN R.I.. U DO THAT AND WE’LL GET HOTEL. BREAK MY “RULES” (provided your latest meets wore condoms….and u tell me the truth). no sex with my dates.  woman tonight initiated light kiss goodnight on mouth, quick peck and home I went. PLEASE LET ME TAKE YOU FOR A BIKE RIDE. “QUID PRO QUO” (“this for that”).  I get what I want and u get what u want. wink. Alfalfa 10:25 PM

Me: Good to hear about your adventures! My family spent Thanksgiving one year up in Maine, turkey overlooking the ocean… very special place! 10:37 PM

Kris: SOOOO…BIKE RIDE????? PLEEEEEEEEEEEEZ!!!!!!! 10:48 PM

Me: Yes. 11:07 PM



Thinking too much

Saturday, September 13, 2014
8:56am
You were up late… hope you had fun!  I woke up early, getting thing done around here, then off to Mom’s. Whee!

I am thinking too much… you  know how that is.  Something needs to give… not sure what.  Praying for guidance, some hint toward a new path… have a fun day!

9:25am Phil 

I hear you. Tough when the job and home suck. You have no sanctuary. Sat up with my kid, wining today and Freding tomorrow.

12:47pm
Took Mom on an adventure out in the burbs.  I had a yen for a salad bar, so we wandered out to Westborough!  So many delicious choices!  

2:07pm
We went on a grocery store adventure to the first Wegman’s in MA – drove up to Northborough.  The place is a zoo!  HUGE food court, humongous store… whee!

Postponing The Talk

Wednesday, September 10, 2014
Kris: Free for a visit tonite? No sex – need to talk. Dating potential wives, then what? Remarry and keep cheating? Can’t do it. U know me…I can’t do “ex-affair partner turned ‘just friend’ either. Tried that already, didn’t work. Plus, Sassy won’t accept that crap…and real you can only restrain her up to a point. It’s not fair to u. So if not tonite, some night soon, to talk. 12:36 PM

Kris: I know this isn’t a talk u want to have. I don’t, but u mean too much to me to do it some other way.  When it’s a good time/day/evening let me know.  You have already done some work in letting me go…..just need to talk about when it really happens, much as you don’t want to talk about it and just “live in the moment” 5:03 PM

Me: Sorry – crazy work, just seeing this. What time did you want to meet? 5:04 PM

Kris: Is it a good time tonite….don’t need to rush it. can do some other time if u r tired. just been on my mind a lot lately 5:06 PM

Me: I’m worn out. Let’s work on another night. Thanks! 5:21 PM

Kris: Ok.  let.me know. Rest. have a good night. Hug 5:27 PM
