Clean Slate

I landed a gorgeous 1 bedroom apartment in a fantastic new neighborhood, close to public transportation. I had Rufus and London come with me to measure things out, where I can put all my furniture. I'll be moving in soon after I get back from my trip Back Home next month, avoiding the September 1st rush.

I'm meeting people, and conversing with people. New people, old people. Being social, being happy. I feel unlike I have ever felt before. It is liberating.

Every morning when I walk past the construction workers taking their 9am break, they nod their head to me and keep their eyes on me. It's a little creepy, but a little exciting at the same time.

My long-term internet friend Dragon has admitted to me that he thinks he has a crush on me. I expected it to come out now that I'm single, and come out it did. I declined him gently; he is too timid even for me. Today, however, he admitted that he used photos of me to get off on. Being a poor Christian boy, he felt extremely guilty and felt the need to tell me. Being understanding of his fragile mentality about the whole thing, I told him his private business is his private business. But I did bid him not tell me much more about it; I can't much bear to think of him in a sexual way. I can only hope things won't escalate on his end, because I'm not interested in being anything other than his confidant. I'll keep his secrets, but not partake in them...

Another old friend of mine called me irresistably sexy, among other quite flattering, surprising things.

This time of complete singleness have been interesting, to say the least. And of all the times moves have been made on me, I've rejected them all. But, I did meet someone that I didn't want to reject. So, I did go out on a date with him, despite my previously established rule against it for whatever unforseen amount of time. Just to have some fun. But hells yeah, that date was worth it.

I will explain later...
