Tired. So very tired. I think I got about 2 1/2 hours of sleep last night. Jason came over after work and we sat around watching this mini-marathon of Behind the Music on VH1. First it was Nick Lachey. Then it was George Michael. Then it was Kid Rock. Then about 15 minutes into Kid Rock, I couldn’t take it anymore. I was like, screw this, and kissed him. Well, he was about 6″ from my face so I guess he was doing that guy thing where they wait for you to turn you head towards them before they kiss you. At any rate it was fantastic. Fan-tas-tic. OMG. Heart-beating-out-of-my-chest fantastic. We were already late for dinner and that didn’t make things any better.

Jason’s friend Brian made a ton of food. He grilled chicken, steak and scallops, plus made several side dishes. All delish. Over the course of the evening, the three of us went through two bottles of wine. We played bowling on Brian’s Wii … OMG. Greatest thing ever. I easily passed the friend test as both Brian and his (ex) wife liked me. I think Jason and I got back to my place at 11:30 p.m. … and I kicked him out a little after 3 a.m.

Alas, Miss Monique basically kept her inner skanktress in check … there was more kissing and whatnot involved but all items of clothing stayed on. We actually talked quite a bit … I am trying not to be freaked out by all this and he seems the same way. I’m just going to run with it. I’m going to a surprise birthday party with him downtown Saturday night — all I had to hear was “VIP room” and “vodka” — and then depending on weather and him (he’s working all weekend), maybe to fireworks Sunday night.

Sigh. Sigh sigh sigh sigh sigh. He’s so cute and adorable and smart and funny … and it’s amazing how comfortable I am with him. He’s so easy to talk to and it’s surprised me how open he is with me. On one hand, I feel somewhat ridiculous for feeling this way after a week, but hell, why not? Maybe all the bad ones were practice for this.
