It's April Already?!

Wow I can't believe it's already April.  These last few months have been busy at work and starting next week things should be slowing down to a more normalish pace.  Also, the weather up here has SUCKED --- cold, rainy, cloudy days but yesterday it was in the 60s with not a cloud in the sky.  I was so excited that I spent all day outside doing stuff.

I'm flying to California tomorrow for another week of work and am looking forward to the sunny weather down there and fresh faces on grindr.  Then next week I fly to Mexico for a week of vacation!  I head to Mexico every fall for vacation but decided to move the trip up this year due to the craziness at work.  I'm in need of a beach break.

I reconnected with an old college buddy on Facebook this week.  We became friends our senior year and then after graduation we lost contact and I hadn't seen or heard from him in a few years.  Well he found me on Facebook and turns out he's gay. 

So here is the funny thing about that .... one night in college we were hanging out at his place after going to some bars with friends and we started wrestling around.  I had a crush on him and was thinking it was pretty awesome to get to roll around with him like that.  So during it all I'm thinking to myself "damn is this kid gay?"  My hornyness kicks in and I wind up on top of him with his arms pinned back behind his head.

So there I am sitting on top of his body straddling him, his arms pinned back and it was weird because we just stopped and stared at each other.  The crazy thought crossed my mind to lean down and kiss him.  It felt like that's what he wanted --- you know the feeling the comes over you.  I was nervous though because if I did kiss him and that's not what he wanted he would have outed me.  So being the scared straight boy that I was I leaned down like I was going to kiss him but punched him in the stomach instead.  He bucked me off of him and that pretty much ended that.  That event always stuck with me by the way he just sorta let me keep his arms held down and by the look he gave me --- like he was wanting me to kiss him.

Nothing else ever happened like that between us but damn now that I know he is gay I'm thinking I should have been more forceful in taking what I wanted that night!

More Than A Hookup Guy UPDATE!

After over six months of not hearing from this guy, I decided it was time to man up and text him.  He had left such an impression on me of what it would be like to date a dude who has many of the things I'm looking for and I often would think about whatever happened to him.  So two weeks ago I decided to text him to see how he was doing.

I got a pretty positive response back from him and we set up a time to meet and catch up.  It finally happened this weekend when we met up for lunch.  All that morning and on the drive there I was so damn nervous -- like a freaking school girl with a crush.  When I walked into the restaurant he gave me a big hug.  The first couple of minutes were sorta awkward but it got better fast.

Going into it I told myself I had to keep my expectations low and not get excited about the possibility of rekindling what we had.  We had a really good conversation and it was going really well until he told me ...... he's moving to the East Coast next month for work.  Damn!  I was disappointed that this stud is moving away but I am definitely happy for him because he's doing so well in life.

I really wanted to know why he had just disappeared on me the summer before but I didnt want to sound bitchy and ask him.  But towards the end of lunch he brought it up and said at the time we met, he had recently ended a 2 year relationship and he just wasnt ready for another one.  Meeting me and wanting more than simply hooking up took him by surprise and freaked him out.  I told him I understood and said I wished we had met at a different time because who knows what would have happened then.

After lunch we walked around a bit just chatting and he said we needed to keep in touch once he moved away.  I agreed, I gave him a tight hug and walked away to find my car.  He texted me later that night to say he had missed me and that he really enjoyed seeing me.  I'm glad I got in touch with him because seeing him gave me closure on how it ended with us.

Phone Numbers

I've instituted a new rule:  I don't trade phone numbers with guys until I actually meet them in real life.  This weekend I was looking at the saved numbers in my iphone and I came across several names that I have no clue who they are!  Ryan?  Lee?  CJ?  Apparently I had traded numbers with them at some point via grindr but now I cant even remember anything about them.  It's frustrating how flakey a lot of guys are and never wind up wanting to meet up.  They're deleted now. 

I had a great trip back down south --- saw lots of friends, ate some good food and was able to relax some.  Being down there just reminded me how much hotter the guys in the south are!  I really need to move back.

On The Run

February has been a crazy month!  I've been to California twice for work and really enjoyed it down there.  So nice and sunny!  And lots of cute guys....no hookups though but still chatting with several dudes on grindr so if I go back I'll try to meet up. 

I'm flying back down south today for a mini vacation.....after an 8am conference call...nothing like starting a vacation with a boring call.  I'm mentally exhausted from work and need a few days of doing nothing except chilling with friends.  Also booked a trip to Mexico for April.

Sorry I have nothing exciting to write about right now.  Hope yall are all doing well.

California

My trip was short but good.  Chatted with a few guys on grindr but didn't make the time to meet up with anyone.  There is one guy I'm still chatting with that I'm planning to meet when I go back in a week.  A co-worker there was trying to set me up on a date with his daughter telling me "she needs a nice successful young man like you."  If only he knew ... I was tempted to ask if he had a son cus the daughter was cute!

The weather is actually very nice right now in Seattle.... in the 50s and sunny.  Got up early yesterday to go on a hike before the game.  Trail was packed with people going up the mountain.

I'm not a fan of the Giants but I hate the Pats so I was happy with the outcome.

End of Month Update

Crazy month!  Trip to Portland went well and had a great time with my new latino hottie.  He came over and spent the night with me again in my hotel (but didn't fall asleep on top of me this time!)  No fucking but we did suck each other off.  He might come up to Seattle some weekend to stay with me.

I'm flying to California tomorrow morning to work down there for a week...... can't wait to see the hot ass on grindr down there!

Snow

I've been working from home all day because we were hit with 6-8 inches of snow over the last 24 hours!  Surprisingly I've only jerked off twice all day. haha

I was supposed to be in Portland today for work and was planning on spending another night with this guy but had to postpone that trip til next week.  I'm real excited to see him again.
