Want to Dance?

I've done my homework today and found several places, no mean feat, in OC to go to to dance next week with MP.  I sent him an email telling him where and it was up to him to make a choice.  He called me, almost immediately, and said he would look them over carefully and decide. He also asked if I thought I'd be ready to dance since my knee  is still healing.  We chatted for a bit and then he got caught in traffic and had to get off the phone. 

I thought about his statements and emailed him that we could just go out for dinner and drinks and come home.  I'll see if he decides on that scenario.  He has also injured himself working out and needs to see a Dr. tomorrow.  Between the two of us we seem to be keeping the medical profession in business

I heard from my Canadian man that is headed up the coast to Canada after being on vacation for a while  He says he can't wait to come to California to meet me.  I hope I'm not making a mistake with this, age appropriate" man.  The tall man that was suppose to meet me for coffee, flaked out.  His loss.  He has a son that plays for a pro baseball team and tonight was a home game, so maybe that was why.  I've written him off after months of emailing back and forth.  It has come to a dead end.  Guess somethings are just meant to be or not.  There are a lot of dead ends in this Senior dating business. I think I'm just lucky to have MP around for as long as he has been around. We like each other, which is a big plus.

Tomorrow is another day.

Later this evening.....

The change in picture has been amazing....from this mornings thirty something to over fifty.  Goes to show that a little change in scenery makes "the boys" take notice. I had one, no picture guy, that emailed me twelve times.

I have one man that lives out of the country that comes to my town, on business, that has asked if he could please take me to dinner or a play when he comes back to town.   I'm considering.  He is actually my age.  Never a good sign with men as they seem to age much more then women do, at least in my opinion. I still find I prefer younger men.

I'm still a little miffed at Mr. Perfect (MP.)  He did call tonight to see how I was doing and said he would like to have a date night next week.  He loves to dance, so I'm scouting, by phone,  different places, which are really minimal in OC for Seniors.  He at least made an effort to be sweet, even though he is the ultimate "Road Runner."  I think he knows I'm not very happy with him at this point. I was pretty snappy with him Saturday when he called , after he left the house,  I won't be doing much dancing with my knee out of commission, yet once again, but I can lean with the best of them.  MP will  have to do a little groveling to get back into my good graces so maybe I'll reconsider the leaning.

I went to my Dr. the other day and segued into Macy's and bought a wonderful pair of five inch, red patent, strappy heels.  Now that makes me 6'2" which is fine with MP's 6'4"....He loves tall women and I certainly fit that bill. I don't know what they rest of you think about that.  Usually tall men like 5'2" gals.  I always thought it was a waste of a perfectly good tall man for we tall women.  To each their own.

I heard from a Colonel in the middle East...a first for me.  He, like a lot of the guys, are looking for their soul mate.  Good Lord, what an over used phrase that is. I always love that relationships start out great and end up in a pile of poo, soul mate or not.  To bad we can't keep the glow on forever. 
If any of you out there have any ideas please let me know.  This million man march is getting pretty confusing.  I still don't know what I want, but I'm sure trying to find it. So many men, so little time.

Ego Fluffing Day!

I went off the radar yesterday.  A little busy, plus the sites were quiet.  Abnormal.  I posted a couple new pictures and this morning I had thirty two men that perused my profile and more then several who contacted me.  It is always an ego boost to hear all the compliments.  Whether they mean them or not, it doesn't matter.  Nice to hear anyway.

I think when you do post a new picture the men out there, who can't remember what they had for breakfast, contact you.  Some of them had contacted me prior to the new posting.  The comments run from, wow what a spectacular seventy one year old (yes that is my age, ugh....better then the alternative I guess,) to please contact me.  Again, most of them don't read the profile.  I really like tall men and most of these men aren't. But it is sweet of them to make the effort and to say something.

A local forty nine year old that has been emailing me for months surfaced again and stated he wanted to meet.  I wrote back telling him  that since we had been doing this dance for months we should at least meet and say hello.  He seems to want to do that.  He asked me to send him a couple of days that would be good. I'll see where that goes.

There are also two other men in the wind for this week.    One I'm suppose to meet for coffee tomorrow.  He is 6'7", now that is my size man, an ex basketball player and we have been talking via the net and the phone, again for months.  Something has always come in the way of us actually meeting, either infirmities or weather.  I'll see if he really wants to drive the twenty eight miles to make it for coffee.  He is age sixty and balks at making the drive in traffic.  I told him that MP drive hundreds of miles to see me, so I will find out if he will do the same.

Then there is the fifty five year old that wants to take me out this week.   He is very cute, but stated he needed to get somethings done prior to meeting or taking me out.  He also said he would replace MP because he was so much better and several years younger.  Hmmm, maybe so.  It is interesting that they all think they are the best in whatever it is they think they are the best in, from being dates to lovers.  I swear if one was so inclined you could go to bed with a different man every night.  I think there is a name for that, isn't there?

So with the above being said, I'm off or lunch today with friends and I'll keep all of you apprised of what happens, if anything the balance of the week.

Monday-a Me Day

After trying to sit still and nurse my knee over the weekend, today was a run around day.  I had a dermatology appointment to get zapped.  Always fun, ouch!  Then off to see Dr.Lambros, my plastic surgeon.  I think he just has me come in so he can say , "Wow, I do good work. " He says he wants to do a couple of other things to me, but I have to think about that.  You can't stave off Father Time no matter how hard you try.

On to the men today.  I heard from my young, for me, age 55 year old guy.  He wants to meet the end of this week.  He said he has a few things to get settled first.  We;ll see if that transpires. He looks like MP and I think that's why I answered him on the site. 

After the Italian called me last night, I kept thinking about him and finally decided to text him to tell him there was no way in hell that I waa going to see him again and to please forget me. I want nothing to do with this man who seems to be just a little over the top when it comes to me.  I'm hoping after the text he gets the message, although I immediately had a call from him on my cell, which I didn't answer...he left a message that said he wanted me to call him and said, " what a message I had left him. What about go away don't you understand.

Quiet sunday...

Today was the first day that things have been super quiet.  I think a lot of it has to do with the guys watching the "March Madness" basketball playoffs.  I did watch the last quarter of the Arizona State vs UConn on Saturday after talking on the phone to Mr. Perfect.   Because of Mr. Perfect I was hoping that Arizona would win but they didn't.  It was very close but no cigar. 

I was a little upset with MP and told hiim so via an email.  He emailed me right back and then called.  I have too much time to think and told him I thought he was in a hurry to leave because he had another "hot date."  He told me to relax and no, he was on the road and to stop thinking so much. He stated he liked me but had a really busy week coming up with business.  We'll see.  I'm going dark this week and we'll see if he contacts me.

I did have one call today from "Mr. Italian" from VA.  This man has been calling off and on since I met him several months ago while he was out in LA via one of the sites.  Two or so calls while I was vacationing in Hawaii.  He won't take no for an answer.  I told Mr. Perfect about him and he said we should invite him along on a date.  Brother, wouldn't that go over big, one German and one Italian wth egos as big as the country, both thinking they are the best lovers in the world.  One thing about Mr. Perfect is he is not only a good lover, but he is loving, at least most of the time.  Mr. Italian, I think not so much.  I think he might be a good lover but would not fill the loving bill.  He is a little rough around the edges.

There was also a younger man that did contact me today, almost forgot about him, and he sent me a "wink"  Not as tall as I like my men, but per his profile, seemed to be well educated and was looking for someone that he could be nice to, whatever that means.  With men you can guess and your usually right.

Well tomorrow is another day.  I have several Dr. appointments and then home free.  The weeks are going too fast.

MR. PERFECT ARRIVED!!

In keeping with never knowing when the man I like will show up, he was a day early.  He was sweet enough to want to see how I was doing. I had a meniscus repair done the beginning of the week and ended up with the stitches being taken out too soon.  when I returned ome I had blood running down kmy leg from one of te incision sites.  What a mess. 

I'm not one to sit around so I had several appointments I had to keep, hair being one of them. Luckily I had a long time friend's daughter, who I've known since she was three, haul me around to my various appointments.  I can't seem to just sit still.

This morning I got most of the house cleaned up with some clothes washed.  When Mr. Perfect called to say he would be by in an hour or so and did I need anything, I asked for a cafe mocha.  He showed up at the door with my request.

He always looks so fresh and clean which is a prioity for me.  He sat and told me about his week and what he was up to.  Just having him near me is comforting even though he had to leave for business reasons after about an hour and after admonishing me that I needed to sit, with my leg up, and stop trying to do so much.

When he left I checked my I Phone messages.  I had a message from a man that has been after me to have an extramaritial affair asking why I hadn"t answered him, I responded by asking him what he was bringing to the table besides himself.  I, again, don't want revolving men in my bed.  He is in a relationship but not happy.  Too bad!

I use Mr. Perfect as an excuse and it is amazing how many men respond by saying they would be better and they could boot him out of my bed in a heartbeat. Interesting what egos these men have.  I suppose confidence is part of the equation.

Tomorrow is another day and I will see what the Internet brings me.  Until then....

More men then I can handle.....

Another day on line at the different dating sites.....what an eye opener this has been.  I always thought that I would stay "age appropriate" but have found that not to be the case.  I seem to be so attracted to men in their fifties.  I've always believed that older men where more to my liking but since I started to go on line to date, I find that not to be the case.  Of course most of the men don't just want to date, they want to get you into bed.  I'm not into revolving men in my bed so I have been very selective.  I have one man, who has captured my fancy and I hope I have captured his, that has been around for approximately eight months.  We don't see each other a lot for various reasons, travel, time, business, friends  but when we do it is major sparks.  Who would think at my age their would be sparks.  I also know that this can't go anywhere but what fun going nowhere fast.  I want everyone out there to know that there is life after a certain age and that you don't have to roll up in a ball and put yourself away.  I'm going to be telling everyone what the Internet brings to me per day and what I have been doing.  It may give you hope that after divorce, death or whatever makes you find yourself alone that you too can carry on.
