I needed to read back to where I had left off, but now I know how much you all know, so I can provide a good run down...
Saturday night, I get a text from Sam. Asking if we're still on for sunday for lunch and a movie. I'm super, super confused, but say yeah sure and we agree to pretty much the same thing we had for saturday. Upon getting home from wherever I was, I reread my texts and realize he HAD said that he wanted to push it forward a day, cause he was sick, not cancel it. My bad. Its what I get for reading the text at 6am with a hang over while half asleep.
Sunday comes along, and I meet him at the movie theatre. He looks good as always, and he buys the tickets to the show. Then we walk over for lunch. It was a good lunch, we were talking back and forth, enjoying the conversation. We talked about work a bit, about his soccer game ( which he went to the night before, after sleeping off being ill), and also about our dogs. Apparently his parents were dog breeders, so he grew up in the show circuit, and thus knows a fair bit about the whole dog training bit. It was nice to ask him some questions and listen to him talk about his dog, which he clearly cares a fair bit about.
Then we went to a movie, that for the life of me, I can't remember what it was we saw. It was good, he bought popcorn and stuff too. We sat at the back... but didn't do anything in THAT way. In fact, the whole date, we were both clearly holding back. I wasn't sure what he was comfortable with, with him not sure about anything serious, and I guess he wasn't sure what I was comfortable with, having said it wasn't going to get physical. But, he walked me back to my car, and after making me promise to score him a goal and win my game, kissed me. A nice, subdued kiss, specially after the one on my birthday, right?
I didn't score a goal, but my team won.
My friend asked me yesterday if I wanted to go to a wine tasting with her, her boyfriend and inviting Sam. I was cautious at the idea. One of my guy friends had said it was a weird thing to do to a guy on a date, make him hang out with my friends, and wasn't too sold on if I should have even invited him out to my birthday. But, I took a chance and asked him. I told him I would treat him and he agreed to go ( not cause it was on my dime, I told him that after, of course) He said he would get the next one. Sooo, he's not planning on stopping this any time soon. He said we did need to arrange a doggie play date, but that he was busy over the weekend and this week. So, I don't think I'm going to hear from him till after V day ( or on it, to arrange the wine tasting). I guess it removes the wondering if he'll want to do something with me on that dreaded day of forced, commercialized romance. I don't think so. I think its going to be another valentineless valentine's day. Which, really, I guess I'm still dating someone this time a year, which is a big step up. I think I was away on training last year for work. I'm just going to give him his space. Today is actually the first day I haven't been doing something after work, too. So I'm going to take the time to relax. :)
And, I got a message from Vinnie, who was just checking up on me I guess, and saying he was going to be back in town around the end of March. And I was soooo happy to tell him I probably would not be in town around that time. Happy that I didn't have to lie about it, anyways. Gah.
Oh, also on monday, I went and got blood work done. And hoping I don't hear anything back this time around. Cause that means I'm in the clear. Fingers crossed.
