a dragon - a hunter/gatherer - a hot saturday night date! a spill the beans kind of grat list - sunday is lovely! X

here i am ladies!!! and this is the tale that i've waited to tell for the past 16 months!:

1. first/foremost: a snapshot of me and what i apparently look like on a date:

2. craigslist - if anyone ever doubts that this is the place to be, send them to me. it works, it really does!

3. so jeremy is way different from the men of my past - a rocker guy! kind of! but not, really! i haven't dated the "rocker type" - they fell off my radar back in the 6th or 7th grade! i don't know, those boys always liked me - i went another way. the best part is that he never even had a real craigslist profile - he found mine, and replied. how did he find me? he lives in arlington, about an hour outside of seattle. we wrapped our date up with a steamy make-out session at 3 am! i always make it clear, that i won't have sex on the first date - he joked about the "possibility" the night before! ha, nice try dood! he was an overachiever and i ignored his masturbation in the car routine - i don't have sex on the first date! but the kissing was heavenly!

4. his dna is all over the backseat of HIS car!

5. haha!

6. i dressed to kill, like i do. he picked up me up in his giant and i mean GIANT monster size white truck and we dined on sushi, he was in good hands! he had never tried it before! how cute is that?

7. when we met, he handed me 2 dozen of these!: and i truly appreciate it!

8. i picked the movie! i should always PICK the movie! well, maybe not always, but you know what i mean! go check out: "the road" - it's a beautifully horrifying apocalyptic story - charlize theron! viggo mortensen! the works! the cinematography is divine! really!

9. a late night IHOP ghetto romp was in order - this man was out of his element, it was nice! really! things we discussed: my sex industry past, my films, his ex, my ex and other nice/real semi-gritty stuff! he was freakin' out - there is no IHOP like the one in capitol hill, where he lives! there are trees, rivers and other cool stuff! this was straight out of the "donny and marie show"!

10. mama is officially back on the horse - i signed up for match.com - we'll see what happens next.

thank you for having my back!

and don't be afraid to meet a total stranger - i mean it. people talk all kinds of crazy shit about doing this. we both were admittingly nervous, but if you can believe it, the night before our date we chatted on the phone for 5 1/2 hours! how cool is that? i hadn't done that with a person, any person, in almost 15 years!

he's dated a few women and we were able to discuss our lives openly - he was married as long as i was and has been recently divorced in the last 8 months. i would like to get to know him *and his dna!*, spend some time with him. he works grave, he's a machinist, he's a man's man! he hunts and stuff! he has two daughters!

reach out - just do it!

hearts and craigslist adds! *of all things!*
