Double dose of weekend and date recaps!

I actually had a date this weekend - with a poofer who suddenly reappeared. Yeah, I was skeptical after he disappeared for a month, but curious enough to see what he was doing back. We had only had one date, back in June, then he kept in touch for a few weeks until he poofed in mid-July. OK, then....

But, he emailed me out of the blue last week, then showed back up chatting with me on Yahoo messenger (I had deleted him, but he apparently kept me in his list). I said that I was kind of surprised to hear from him, and he said "Don't be surprised, I like you". (Hmmm... Funny, I didn't really get that vibe when you poofed on me! )

Anyway, we made plans to go out again on Saturday. He made a reservation at a new restaurant, then after dinner, he suggested seeing a movie, so we went to see "My Idiot Brother" (such a bad movie! I can't remember the last time I saw a movie this bad. But, he said he really liked Paul Rudd, so that was his first choice).

After the movie, we sat and talked for while, then he just sort of said "Good night" and gave me a hug and that was it. Well... so much for giving poofers a second chance.

But... then he called later to say how he really liked hanging out with me, and hoped we could do it again. (Don't ask, I don't know what is going on with this guy either...) I said I did, too, and he said we would talk later. I had no idea if I would actually hear from him again, but then he texted me later that night to see how I made out with the storm. We texted a bit, and I asked if he wanted to go into the city this coming weekend (Labor Day weekend) but he said he was going out of town. I suggested a rain check and he said "You can hold me to that". Really, I am not "holding him" to anything, because he is sort of like nailing Jello to the wall, but he is cute, and interesting, so I say What the heck? I've got nothing much else going on at this point, datewise, so I'm just taking things one step at a time. If he calls me, he calls me. If we go out again, we go out again. If he poofs again... well, that's it then. I do have some standards!

It's been too long since our last recap and I also want to hear how everyone on the eastside fared this past weekend with Irene, so away we go!

Let us know what dates you've had recently, how they went and if you were in the affected area, please let us know how the hurricane impacted you (hopefully not very much!!!)

I'm preparing for an upcoming trip with the guy I'm seeing (our first...yikes!) and although I was free and clear from Irene this past weekend, lots of family and friends back in New York did endure the storm but fortunately no one was hurt and no major property damage was sustained by any of my peeps - so I am feeling very lucky indeed!

Let us know what's new with you!

and he said "You can hold me to that".

if he does call this will probably be the "theme" of the entire time that you date him. a statement like that would annoy the hell out of me to the point of where i would be totally turned off, but of course thats just me.
