Long Story Short ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fun Weekend Wow. Saturday night was unfucking believeable in a spectacular way. We finally got together with Eric, a work friend of Professor K's, and his fiance Christina. And holy fucking shit we CLICKED. Eric is amazing - looks like Ewan McGregor, plays the guitar, is committed to his fiance, loves the Civil War, loves physics, thinks PK is the shit, and that I'm funny. We sat and talked on their screened in porch for five hours. FIVE HOURS with no music, no tv, and no food. Just some cold beers and some amazing conversation. It's so nice as a couple to meet another couple that fits like a glove. Yeah there are some differences - she's got a five year old kid, we're not planning a wedding - but the basics are the same and strong as hell. I haven't had a real conversation like that in ages, I think I was starved. We found ourselves telling our deepest and darkest and getting smiles and encouragement in return. And secrets. Good fucking secrets that made me laugh. Tonight we watch our new stack of movies and feel good that tomorrow is Monday because we used our weekend. Oh yes, we used it well. Wine! And tomorrow evening my dad and I take in a Sox game, our first date together in ages. Happy Happy Happy Happy... 9:48 p.m. - 2005-08-07 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
