The symphony was not as bad as I thought it would be. It was actually kinda fun. It was done as a narrative, and the narrator was none other than Anthony Daniels, that's right, C3-P0 himself. He was funny, too. Everytime there was a mention of C3-P0 in the narrative, he would totally play up his part, like saying, "the HEROIC C3-P0," and so on. And the conductor would give him dirty looks. Good times. During the Imperial march, storm troopers marched up and down the aisles and Darth Vader threatened us from the organist's perch. Lawrence held my hand on the way in. Isn't that cute? And he kept telling me things during the symphony, which meant whispering in my ear, which totally turns me on. Also, on the way there, he basically said that he's worried because he knows that I can do better that him, looks wise. (I'm paraphrasing on that.) I wasn't really sure how to respond to that. I was like, "uh. . .thank you?" He laughed.
Afterward, he told me that he's the kind of guy that likes to shower a woman with gifts like flowers, jewelry, candy, etc, all the time, not just on holidays, and wanted to know if I'm comfortable with that. I told him that I don't know, because in all the time I've been dating, I've received a total of 2 gifts from guys, and one was flowers and a teddy bear on Valentines day that was accompanied by being dumped. He was appalled, and he said, "So, you're going from totally drought to me. Well, you're dating a higher quality of loser now, you'll get used to it."
He was talking about buying a four door sedan (he's driving a Ford Ranger right now), and he was checking to see which ones I like. I said I like roomy cars that go fast, and he was like, "So, you wouldn't mind if I bought a Dodge Charger?" I said, "I don't know what that is." "It's a muscle car," he said, "but it's still got room inside." I was like, "Oh, yeah, I love muscle cars!" I made sure he knows I don't drive a stick. :) Literally, not metaphorically. In my experience, when a guy's getting car approval from a girl, he's got intentions.
When we got back to my house, he came in and Mom and Joe attacked like rabid wombats and talked to him for about 40 minutes, and at one point Joe was saying that whenever someone gets divorced, they always have a rebound relationship afterwards. (Joe was saying this because he's considering dating a girl that recently left her husband, not in reference to Lawrence being divorced.) But Lawrence said, "Well, that's not always true. I tried to wait long enough that hopefully that won't happen." And he looked straight at me when he said it. It made me smile.
So, I walked him out, and it seemed like he wasn't going to kiss me, so I just said, "You know, if you don't kiss me soon, I'm gonna have to start using feminine wiles, and I'm not good with feminine wiles, so nobody wants that, it wouldn't work out well." After a short conversation about that, he finally went for it. Tee hee! So I found out that he can make my heart go pitter pat after all. Yay! But now I'm even hornier than normal, and that is not something I would have thought possible. My productivity is shot to hell today, and I'm hardly getting anything done at work. *Sigh* Oh well, at least there's not too much pressing. I'll see him again Friday! Yay!

Tee Hee!! Yay Margie! I'm glad everything seems to be going well. He sounds really nice and I can't wait to meet him. So does this mean he's a good kisser then? ;)
Well, you can't really tell by a first kiss because they are always kinda tenative and weird, but if I had to assess, I would say, yes. Yes he is. If you come to the dance on Friday, you'll meet him fo sho!
Joe's just bitter cause he don't gots no one. Sad really.
And P.S.- you have Shemsi to thank for this post. I wasn't going to post, but Shemsi came on and told me to let ya'll know how it went, so I did. so you can throw your rotten tomatoes at her, not me! :P
I'm glad she did I was anxiously checking my computer for updates in case you posted about your date. :D
Is it possible that you're making fun of me Margie? I know it's not in your nature to mock people, but I guess there is a first time for everything :)
The "symphony" itself sounded. . . fun?
So you've found a guy who takes you on, let's say "creative," dates; is interested in your opinion and (in general) seems to like the fact that you're empowered; enjoys buying you gifts; gets along with your family; AND is attractive to you (and vice versa). . . Sounds like a keeper!
Kiera: you need to get out more. :) I guess the soap opera of my life is more riveting than fiction. lol.
Shemsi: I would never make fun of YOU! No really, I wasn't in this case, I had decided that you people were probably sick of hearing about my love life and I was just going to say I had fun and leave it at that. It was YOU that inspired me to give details. See, one person CAN make a difference. the symphony itself was fun I guess. I'm not into music and I especially feel no need to go sit and watch people play music for hours. I don't even go to concerts for bands that I like. So I was mostly there for the company. Uh. . .it had good sound quality. And it was nice and loud.
Yeah, he's probably a keeper. I just worry that this is happening too fast. I'm nervous.
