Away with the BAD!

So today was a difficult day. I cut out one of my good friends. She just wasn't supportive of my life decisions and she made me say negative things to her out of spite so it was just not healthy.

Anyways, moving on!

Davey's coming to NYC soon. That should be fun. I think I'll take him to the Thai place since that is going to expire soon. I hope he makes it for my birthday.

Everything's going well though, I'm getting a $250 check in the mail. And I have $150 in upcoming project.

I signed up for elance and bid on 4-5 more projects so I hope I get those.

Nothing else is new with me.

I'm meeting my friend Josh for dinner tonight at Bann. It's on me because he got dinner last time.

Tax Season Going on Strong!

The Knicks beat the Orlando Magic in overtime. Thrilling game!

Well Davey says he's coming to NYC to visit. We shall see. He's turned MIA lately.

I have one bookkeeping client tomorrow at 11AM, getting paid by one tax client tomorrow at around 5PM and then getting some receipts from a third client to type up into a spreadsheet for him. Wednesday I have an 8:30AM appt and an 11AM appt. Both tax clients. Thursday I have a 12PM tax client. No appts so far on Friday. One bookkeeping client at 10AM on Sat. A double client (boyfriend, girlfriend) at 4PM on Sunday. And it hasn't reached the midway of the week and I'm booked this week solidly.

I have 4722 in the bank account, but I have a 130 ticket, 1100 rent, 250 rent check outstanding. I wanna have 5-6K after tax season.

Have to get up at 9AM tomorrow. I should make my office hours 12PM to 7PM.

Paddy's being finicky lately. I feed him so much food he should be happy he has a mummy like me.

On the bus

So I'm on the Greyhound bus, using their Wifi. They don't have outlets though. If I went to DC, they would have outlets and Wifi.

I'm on the way to visit Davey in MD. I kinda bugged out on him again because I didn't hear back from him after he invited me down at 5PM. He responded back at 7:45PM. But all is well now.

I'm not going to ask when he'll move to NYC or why he doesn't come and visit me. I will just ask if he is free Good Friday weekend. That's reasonable, right?

It's sleeting snow and rain in NJ. I think it's still snowing in MD. I wonder what he'll be making for dinner tonight.

Last weekend in MD

So I was invited by Davey up this weekend, took the bus to Baltimore then transferred to Frederick so I got there around 3pm. He picked me up at 3:10pm and we hung out til 6pm whereupon he had to leave to go to a work dinner. He was gone til midnight! I was pissed so he slept on the sofa for part of the night. But we did end up having sex the morning after so we didn't break up over it.

He said he'll come to NYC in January. So we shall see! I have Carmen the opera on January 8, he prolly won't come on New Year's Eve. So he'll most likely come on January 15 which is 8 weeks (2 months) away. December is not a good month with Christmas and all. Anyways I wanna go up there Valentine's Day weekend on a Friday night and he said he'll show me around on Saturday and I can go home on Sunday. That will be in February.

Davey wants some more nude photos but my camera went missing. this is the fourth or fifth camera I've bought. Luckily the price went down to 99 so the total is 118, plus the carrying case that I lost (20) and an SD card (16), it'll be like the cost of it before at $150.

I was thinking about breaking up with Davey and going out with Howard. But he's 5'8 and has two teenage kids. Also he runs and wants to run with me and I haven't run in 4-5 months! I am not about to go running again for a guy. Davey doesn't make me run and he's 5'10 so my kids might be taller, LOL. So I think I will continue dating Davey and hope he moves to NYC sometime next year.

next weekend!

So Davey might be coming up to NYC for work this week so next weekend looks good to finally meet up. It's been over 3 months since I last saw him. He's also gonna think up some new poses for me to send.

I got drunk last night at Cheryl's birthday party. I had 5.5 martinis. Anyways, not gonna drink again anytime soon. The drinks were half-off so I only spent $36 on 6 drinks. $5 for the martini and $1 tip. At least I just used up all my cash in my wallet, and didn't charge anything to my card.

Update on Davey weekend

So Davey got sick this weekend and couldn't come. He did email me both on Sat and Sun showing a great desire to come. Oh well. I think he has his daughter this Halloween weekend. And I bought a classical music concert ticket for the night of Nov 6 so not sure if he wants to go to that. So instead of Rayuela we can go to a restaurant in the Lincoln Center area.

So maybe he'll come on Sat Nov 6 and we'll go to the concert then grab dinner in the Lincoln Center area. Dan Sushi? PJ Clarke's? I have to figure a good place to go to then. :)

Looks like Game 1 of World Series will be won by Texas Rangers and Cliff Lee. leading 2-0 with Cliff Lee on the mound for Texas against Lincecum.

Oct 23-24 weekend

So Davey promised next weekend. The weekend of Oct 23-24. That worked best because I went to a cello/piano concert at Alice Tully Hall on Saturday with my mom. That was good. My mom liked it more than the paid concert that I took her to the philharmonic last year. This concert was free. Definitely a plus to be part of the Classical Music Meetup group where I heard abt the free concert.

Anyways, I am planning to go ice skating this weekend and go to Rayuela and Verlaine for dinner and drinks, respectively. Fun weekend! He'll meet Paddy!

this may be it

so Davey will let me know tmrw most likely if he's coming to NYC this weekend. Not sure if he has his daughter this weekend. And I want to go to a concert at 2pm on Saturday. Maybe next weekend. Who knows? Will keep you updated.

Breaking News

Breaking news: Davey has a daughter. Not sure how old she is. But apparently he was married years ago. Which is news to me. Anyways he had his daughter this weekend. I'm giving him until next weekend to show his face in NYC. He better bring flowers too!

Maybe next

Davey sent me a text this past Friday saying maybe next. So I hope he does come this coming weekend. This weekend makes eight weekends of not connecting. Asked him to call me today. We'll see if he does that.

But he said to take the time we have and enjoy it, so I know I'm in a monogamous relationship with him.

I like the ramen at Ippudo NY. Went there yesterday by myself and sat at the bar. Asked my bro if he wanted to go today, my treat.

Now this coming weekend for sure this time

So Davey didn't make it up last weekend. See his email below explaining:

"OK, I got flown out to San Fran today for work. Just got back to my hotel room after a long day. Hope I can fly out tomorrow, but it pretty much ruined my chance to come see you tomorrow. The hotel is really cool though. If you want me to send you some photos from my room, I can."

He sent me a text saying he'll try hard to be here this coming weekend but he can't make promises out of his control.

He's been MIA since last Friday so I sent him a video email hoping to jog up his senses. LOL He has to respond to that email. Anyways, here's looking to this weekend.

What shd I eat today? That is the question, I might go to Thai Pavilion and grabbing some Seafood Spicy Noodle.

This coming weekend instead....

Long time since my last post. Davey didn't make it up over Labor Day weekend but he thinks he can make it this weekend. Hope he can! It might rain on Sunday but nice day on Saturday.

Sent him a lot of texts and two voicemails over Friday and Saturday so he got annoyed. But he did text me twice over the weekend and emailed me asking for a new pose. I sent him a whole bunch of pics this week and he thought they were hot. The video he requested was too large to send thru email. Maybe in person.

Anyways, I made a reservation for two at Rayuela if I don't feel like cooking him lasagna Saturday night.

Crossing my fingers for this coming weekend.

US Open Labor Day Monday

I am post-dating this entry to 9/6/10 but writing it on 9/9/10.

I went to the US Open with my mom on Labor Day Monday September 6. We watched Monfils down Gasquet, Kinepri defeat Wickmayer and Soderling beat Montagne. All of them have since been eliminated from the US Open. I'm rooting for Nadal vs Federer with Nadal giving him a straight sets spanking! I can dream, can't I?

And around 5:43pm on Sunday Davey texted me a message "Email ya in a bit". It sounded light so it sounded like it would be a good email. And it was. He sent it around 6:30pm (the first time he sent an email in the 6 o'clock hour). It was saying I hope you had "a good weekend even though we didn't get together. Next weekend is a definite possibility."

Silver Lining

So Davey's not able to get out of work to come to NYC this weekend. He said there might be a slim chance and he'll know late Friday afternoon but don't plan on him being here this weekend. The silver lining is that maybe he'll be able to come up the next weekend, which is Labor Day weekend. We'll see. To be continued....

I ate Black Garlic pizza (garlic, mushrooms and prosciutto) from El Greco Trattoria. Very yummy. Having the leftovers.

Italian Baked Lamb Chops

I'm making this, Italian Baked Lamb Chops, for lunch and dinner tonight. Yeah, I'm back to cooking baby! I'll take a pic of my final product and append this posting in an hr or so................ Bon appetit!

Thank God I tried that recipe out before trying to cook it for Davey. It didn't turn out that well, I had to nuke it in the microwave to cook it because it was still visibly red on the outside. Didn't snap a picture because it didn't look so good. Now I have enough leftovers to feed me til the end of tomorrow. So I'm not going to my parents until Wednesday to stock up on some food. I'm poor this week. August has been a sloooooooow month.

Anyways, I was going through my recipes and I'll make the Spicy Chipotle Lasagna for Davey if he comes up to NYC this weekend. He mentioned in an email last Friday morn abt coming the weekend after which would make it this coming weekend, but he hasn't followed that up with a more substantive email so not sure. Anyways I asked him if he wanted brownies with almonds or vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting. I'm hoping he says brownies so I don't have to buy an electric mixer.

Coming this weekend

Davey wrote me an email Friday morning saying the weekend after is good and that he'll write me more by Sunday but it's Monday and he hasn't said anything more abt visiting so not sure if he's definitely coming this weekend. But I hope he does.

I'm going to bake him Magnolia Bakery vanilla cupcakes with chocolate buttercream frosting. Yummy. Either that or Duncan Hines fudge brownies with almonds. He has to tell me which he wants more.... the brownies will be easier and then I won't have to get a hand mixer or a stand mixer.

My Favorite Flowers

Dean & Deluca named these flowers Nicola roses and they are my favorite. No, Davey didn't get me these, I bought them myself -- a dozen for $10. Not bad. At Dean & Deluca they were $20. But at a flower shop on East 62nd and Lexington Avenue, they were $10.81 with tax.

Anyways, I decided to get them to brighten up the room. I hope Davey remembers to buy me some flowers when he visits me. He still hasn't indicated which weekend he can come up. He mentioned some good weekends, so not sure if he's coming up for more than one weekend. We shall see.

Weekend in MD

I got back on Sunday from a weekend spent with Davey in Frederick, MD. I had a fun and relaxing weekend. I arrived around 10:40am at Baltimore's Penn Station. However, David didn't leave his house until after I arrived. He arrived around 11:35am and we drove back to his apt. He lives in a nice three level complex, Sunset Apartments. He told me his rent is $960. Rent is cheap in MD! We quickly changed for the pool and I paid 5 dollars for the pool access. He bought some Sam Adams' summer ale and some chips (no salsa or guacamole). He said he would make guacamole later.

Anyways we spent a couple of hours in the pool and sunbathing. It was relaxing and hot.

Then we took a nap together on the couch, abt 90 minutes long, I was only asleep for the last half hour and he woke me up because his arm had fallen asleep. Then we took a shower separately and got ready to go out. We went to the Tasting Room in Frederick, MD and had crab dip and I had the Beachy Lychee and he had a glass of red wine, merlot... Then we went to Safeway to buy the ingredients for a French hamburger and roasted squash.

He made me guacamole and we talked for a while because we weren't hungry. then around 10:15pm he cooked me a French hamburger and roasted squash plus some store-bought potato salad. It was by two candlelights so it was nice and romantic. Then we went to sleep. Nice day and evening.

Then the next morning, we woke up too late to make French toast but he did make me some coffee. It was good. Then he drove me to Penn Station in Baltimore and I got on the 12:15pm bolt bus to Manhattan. Got into 33rd and 8th Ave at 4:43pm.

He told me to pick a weekend for him to come up to NYC and he'll see if he can make it. So I have to figure out which weekend is good. I don't really wanna spend 2-3 days with him over July 4th weekend and then his birthday is Jul 9 so not sure if he'll want to come to NYC on his birthday weekend so it might be another 4 weeks til I see him again.

But I did write him an email on Monday telling him I had a fun time and he said he enjoyed having me there so all is well. I am happy.

He said best case scenario he'll move to NYC in three months but it could take up to 6 months, so we'll see how this dating goes til then.
