2nd Chance with an old Flame
My trip home was awesome! I had a great time at the concert meeting people from the Fan Club/Forum. It was really nice to spend the time with Stacey - nothing beats being with people who REALLY know you and have seen you through some tough times. Seeing the family was good, but I'm more convinced than ever that home is NOT something I can go back to. The whole Chad thing has been revealed, discussed, and dismissed. MOVING ON!
I came home and made my promised call to Scott. Allow me to introduce you to Scott.
I met Scott about 3 years ago through a mutual friend. We "dated" for a few months but eventually went our seperate ways. He moved to Daytona - I just moved on. Then a few months ago I litterally bumped in to him at a Chris Cagle concert. We swapped numbers promising to get together.
WELL - I was hesitant to actually take him up on his offer - our past wasn't exactly something I cared to repeat. See, when we first started dating we were stupid kids - more interested in getting some action than actually looking for someone we could rely on. And I am WELL past that point. Being male - I wasn't so sure he was.
After the whole Chad fiasco I figured I had nothing to lose by going out with Scott. So we made arrangements to get together on Sunday. He finally calls around 5 and asks me for dinner. We go - we talk - we find that we can easily pick up where we left off.
There's something about Scott - he's very approachable and it's easy to be completely honest and up front with him. He's not the typical "pretty boy" I normally date - so that means he's not really full of himself. He has a good head on his shoulders and has goals for his future that go beyond drugs/alcohol/video games. He is the GM for a Honda motorcycle dealership, and is looking into buying a house in the next 6 months.
I told him I wasn't interested in being a bootie call - that I couldn't take any more games. He told me that was the last thing he wanted. He had been involved with a girl - lived with her - and she left him. Games were not on his agenda. When I left his house I had a good feeling about things.
He called to check in on me Monday. We spoke briefly last night. He's supposed to call this evening. I don't know EXACTLY what our potential is, but at this point I'm not going to worry about it. I'm just going to enjoy being involved with SOMEONE.
I am glad to be home. To be back to my routine. I haven't felt well the last couple of days. I think a lot of the things I've been dealing with personally have finally caught up to me. Between the trouble with my niece, my biological father rearing his ugly head, work, the house, and matters of the heart... there's only so much a girl handle. There's only so much my BODY can handle.
Leslie and I are in the process of making plans for our cruise. I think her dad is coming for protection. It should be interesting. All we have left to do is book and get our passports. YEAH!
