We all think we are young in our minds. I just got back from having lunch with Tarzana man. He was interesting and had an interesting life. It included building coach's for the entertainment industry. He had hob nobbed with Michael Jackson and Paul Newman. He looked older but at least could carry on a conversation even if it was about his dead wife and the fact that he wanted someone in his life and didn't want to be alone. Mind you he has been a widower for twelve years. What does that tell you.
You would think that I would be at least a little interested. But he looked a little unkempt....the shirt needed ironing and the pants could have used a cleaners. His Mercedes was a little cluttered and smelled like smoke, although he doesn't smoke. He looked his age and then some but was tall and at least not fat. I just can't make myself like someone that I'm not attracted to. He of course wants to see me again. I don't think so. He is working on his boat and is getting ready to sell it. Good luck on that one. So another one bites the dust. Thank God it was only lunch, which by the way was good. Salad Nicoise with seared Ahi.
Then when I returned home, he came in to use the bathroom and then left for a meeting in Marina del Ray where he keeps his fifty foot boat. The worst part of it was I had an email from Dez while we were at lunch asking if I wanted a surprise. He was going to come over. Of course by the time I got home it was an hour past the time he said he could be here. I emailed him and he said he was on his way back up North. So that opportunity was lost. I will see him tomorrow and Friday and it was an apologetic "oh honey, I'm on the freeway going back." Double damn. I really miss that guy. what is it about chemistry?
Vet man sent me a text this morning asking for my pet sitter, then asking again, "dinner Sunday night?" I'm really on the fence. I have something to do every night until next Wednesday and some things during the day. I've all of a sudden become very busy.
So, I'm off to get my hair trimmed and pout that I couldn't see Dez today. I suppose the anticipation makes it doubly better.
