Editor's prologue: I realized after typing this up, it probably isn't that interesting (like the rest of my posts? :lol:  ), but I wasted the time to type it, so I'm force feeding it here. Sorry in advance. TLDR: Weekend of booze and 'baseball' with a recent acquaintance. 

- - -

I texted Lacy, at her request, to let her know that I made it home safely that evening, and thanked her for a great night/morning. She reciprocated thanks and told me that she'd like to see me again soon and that we'd have to work on that plan. :pickle:  

Within the next few days, we checked our schedules and the upcoming weekend was wide open for me, and she only had one quick work call to make on Saturday. I arranged for my kids to stay with their aunt and uncle in south LA, who they'd been asking to visit, so all the stars aligned for me perfectly. 

Friday rolled around and when the kids got out of school, we headed out. I dropped them at their uncle's place and hit the road to Nola for the second weekend in a row. 

I rolled into the Big Easy around 9PM and found a parking spot about 2 blocks from the apartment (aka the balcony hangout from the prior weekend), our crash spot for the weekend, as her friend was out of town and insisted we stay there since Lacy's place was still in a bit of disorder with the furniture snafu. She walked to where I parked and met me with a hug :wub: and a kiss and accompanied me back to the apartment to drop my bag off.  

My bag had no sooner hit the floor when she grabbed my shirt, pulled me over to her, made out with me then pushed me down onto the bed (a real bed this time! :lol: And yes, I'm pretty sure there was lip biting going on.) I guess we weren't going out just yet.  She was a very gracious host and made me feel at home right away. And being a gracious fellow myself, I returned the favor.  

After we said our extended hellos, she suggested that we just fix a drink and sit out on the balcony for a little while instead of venturing out, and I was in agreement. She sauntered off to the kitchen and came back with a couple of bourbons on the rocks. We sipped and talked and people-watched for an hour or so and she asked if I wanted to go lay down and relax and watch Justice League, which she had downloaded, so I said sure. 

Before we even made it to the bed she started kissing me again and we were back on the field of play once again. She displayed a great offense and hit 3 homers, but my walk-off in the bottom of the ninth sealed the deal.  After some post-game refreshments, she grabbed her laptop and queued up the movie. I think we saw MAYBE the first 5 minutes.   :sleep:

We woke up the next morning around the same time... well, after I woke her up ready to play ball again. She showed great competitive spirit and even welcomed my team to join her in some pre-game warm-up activities. This game went on for a while and ended when I launched one into the lower deck. 

She got semi-dressed and headed off to the kitchen and soon I smell bacon cooking. She fixed me a couple of eggs to go along with it and after devouring that, I helped her get the kitchen cleaned up. It was around 11AM. She asked if I wanted to hit the Quarter and walk around some, and I said absolutely. We get dressed then she asked me "how do you feel about some to-go drinks for our walk since we don't have to drive anywhere or anywhere to be later?" I told her I had zero responsibility until the next afternoon, so I was down for anything.  She disappeared for a minute and came back with a couple of to-go cups of bourbon and Coke and off we went. 

She showed me a couple of places around the quarter and we had finished up our to-go cups, so we swung by Lafitte's and each got one of their signature "Purple Drank," which is basically a grape Icee with Everclear.  She said "It doesn't taste all that great at first, but it gets better, just keep drinking" and damned if she wasn't right. :lol: We headed out towards the river and Jackson Square, over by Cafe du Monde, and jumped into the takeout line for some beignets. It started thundering and dark clouds were looming nearby, thus we wanted to stay fairly close to the apartment, so we got our order of beignets and headed down the street. She said "I know a cool little spot that's on the way back to the apartment." We got there and our bartender, who bore a striking resemblance to Lou Diamond Phillips, recommended his classic margarita.  Lacy being a tequila fan, opted for that, and I said that I'd have the same.  Lou said "coming right up" and even brought us some water, napkins and plates on which to eat our beignets. About the time we got our drinks, the skies opened up and so we just sat and watched people walk by getting drenched as we sat nice and dry in the A/C eating beignets and sipping Lou Diamond Phillips signature margaritas. I will admit that Lou Diamond made one HELL of a margarita :thumbup:  

We finished our drinks, and by that time the rain had subsided. We were still hungry, so she said "I know a place right around the corner that has great burgers" and she took my hand and led me to the Clover Grill. She wasn't wrong. Damn fine burgers. :thumbup:  

We finished our food and I can tell that she's ready to mount an offensive again, so we bee-line back to the apartment for another intense matchup. After that round, she needed to call her work appointment, so I pour myself a little bourbon on the rocks and head out to the balcony for a little while.  She joined me a little later, scantily clad and smiling at me, and said she was happy I came to see her. We talked for a little while, then decided we would head back in and try to watch the movie again.  I watched it, and she made it through about half before she :sleep: , but I just let her sleep. The movie ended and I get up and stretch and grab some water. I came back and she had just woken up and is smiling at me when I come in the room. She beckons me to come to her, and so I did. Again.  

She asked me if I was hungry, and of course I was starving. We had talked earlier about a couple of dinner options, but it was approaching midnight so we ended up just scrounging through the cabinets and whipping up some pasta with sausage and tomato sauce. I took our dishes back to the kitchen and we reconvened in the bed for a nightcap before drifting off to sleep. 

As had become a pattern, I awoke first the next morning and let her sleep for a little while, but then couldn't help myself and initiated some contact with her, which was again well received. This matchup went extra innings and ended with her screaming my team's name, and the crowd went wild as my team got a second wind and finished with a bang.  When she got up she steadied herself on the bed for a second and said "Damn, boy, you've got me seeing stars" and without missing a beat, I said "you're welcome!" :bowtie: :brush:  

I had to head out soon, but we decided to get brunch before I left, so we dropped my bag off at my truck, which was adorned with a parking citation for parking too close to the cross walk (I was WELL within the space and NOT blocking the crosswalk at all :rant: but this ticket was cheaper than the cost of any of the paid parking lots I would've had to park in otherwise, so it was still a good deal).  We got to our brunch destination and I notice she's not eating much. She said she was feeling super hungover when she woke up, and almost had to defer the final game of the weekend, but she was a team player and soldiered through it. 

We finished up and she walked me back to my truck and I hit the road to get the kids and then back home to reality. 

We've talked/texted several times since then and have tentative plans to hang out on a couple of opportunistic occasions that happen to cater to our respective schedules. She may, in fact, be coming to visit tomorrow, pending how a work appointment goes today. :D  

I have no expectations of anything substantial coming of this long-term, but I know we have both extremely enjoyed each others' company thus far, so we are just going with the flow.

In other news, as reported in the "happy" thread, one of the smartest, prettiest girls from back in my high school days messaged me a few weeks ago. Got her number and and we've been chatting a bit recently. She sent me a photo of her bikini-clad self on the beach drinking a beer last week. She appears to still be a smokeshow. She is fairly newly divorced and lives in Florida currently, where she works as a physician, and is coming into town next week (or the next) and wants to get together for dinner. 

After a couple of years of feeling like life has continually kicked me in the ###, this new development along with 2 of the most fun weekends I've had in a long, long time, I must say... life could definitely be worse right now. :thumbup:

So many mistakes once again. 

 
Sounds like you threw a perfect game this past weekend.  Now, rest up as you may be needed out of the bullpen when the physician comes to town.

Had dinner with a friend last night, a chick I've been out with a few times over the years, but nothing romantic ever. We just enjoy hanging out and our kids are friends, etc. But the past 3 times I've been out with her, there has been a funny coincidence.  The first time, we were at a little dive bar/restaurant and we were sitting directly behind Marisa's ex-husband, who this chick knew (she also knew Marisa, though not well). :eek:   (<-the face I was making internally, trying to process the odds of that happening, but stone cold poker face on the outside). The second time, and then again last night, Marisa text me while we were at dinner. WTF, universe?  :tinfoilhat:

 
I enjoy story time with the colonel.

so, what is your end game?  are these casual with hope for something more long term? neither of the recent two seem "serious," but i get a lot of romanticism.  I am  also reading that you are not out hunting for one nighters.  Just curious.

Thanks Dk. I've pondered this myself. I suppose I am a bit of a romantic at heart, after all. Really just taking life as it comes at this point. I'm a pretty happy person in general, or at least I used to be. After some big losses, I let life get me down for a little while, so I'm just trying to get back to being more happy. I know I'm not the same person I was 2 years ago (when the Marisa chapter happened). Hell, I'm not the same person I was 6 months ago, when the Stacy chapter happened. Live and learn. Hang on to the happy. With my kids being teenagers and having already suffered great loss as well, I think it's probably best to keep things casual until I am sure they'd be around for a while. If they were and something long-term developed, I'd be ok with that too. I'd be foolish, IMO, to try to make this thing with Lacy an exclusive relationship, as there are too many moving parts right now, but at the same time, there's no denying we have amazing chemistry together and she is a sweetheart to boot, so (and she and I are in agreement on this) we just plan to hang out when we get opportunities and see what happens from there. No pressure. No expectations.  That also keeps me available for hot doctor friends that want to go to dinner on occasion when in town or attractive friend-girls that want to get a drink and listen to live music some weekends. 

Also, if I'm being honest with myself, I know there are some buried feelings for Marisa still in there somewhere. I can't elaborate without telling my entire life story, but I'll just say that, for me, everything seemed different with her. I doubt anything will ever come of that, but she's my kryptonite, I'm not ashamed to admit. :lol:

I’m terrible at remembering names.  Is Marisa the neighbor?

The two texts, I'd wonder a bit if that was really a coincidence or your friend maybe pinging Marisa - to help out a fellow member of the fairer sex.  *Maybe* she's picked up a little that you might have a bit of a flame for Marisa?

What were the 2 texts out of curiosity, anything open ended trying to get a conversation going?

I think it's genuinely awesome that you have a female friend (actually a couple including Kate) that you enjoy hanging out with and there's nothing romantic.  Out of curiosity part 2, does the above dinner chick maybe have a little thing for you and is hoping for the Colonel to make a move?  

Either way, your spectacular successes that you've chronicled are a direct result of you putting yourself out there in the universe (gotta be present to win), and just letting life come to you instead of chasing it.  :thumbup:

But she doesn't know Marisa is my neighbor. 

What were the 2 texts out of curiosity, anything open ended trying to get a conversation going? --I don't recall what the text from Marisa was last time (that was several months ago) but last night, yes, it was an open ended conversation starter (she asked if I had survived the school week)

I'm not sure. I kinda made a move on her last year and she shut me down. (She said she 'didn't want to date anyone.') Yet she still looks me up on occasion. Idk. I backed way off on her after that. We are still cool though. I think she's most likely just jaded from being burned in two marriages. So we are #keepingitfriendly :lol:  

Either way, your spectacular successes that you've chronicled are a direct result of you putting yourself out there in the universe (gotta be present to win), and just letting life come to you instead of chasing it.  :thumbup:  --Appreciate that, GB.

I have a new story that I will attempt to tell in full tomorrow as I don't have the time or focus to write it up right now. It's not a happy tale, and quite frankly it's a little embarrassing for me. But I try to tell the good with the bad here, so I'll throw it out here, because it is an interesting story, at least according to the couple of people I have told thus far. Personally, the damndest thing that has ever happened to me. And it does involve a player previously mentioned in this thread. I'll be back tomorrow with a write up.

After the slow play with the last round of stories, I'm gonna treat this thread like the Game of Thrones and wait until the final installment is released, then binge watch read, Mr. Martin. 

 
So the idea that a Supreme Court Justice might have an ideology but wouldn’t be a blatant partisan and activist is just another centuries-old norm that Trump has exploded in less than 2 years.

So you're saying that the good Colonel's embarrasing story is that he too got sexually assaulted by Kavanaugh?

Lacy and I had kept in touch since that last weekend I visited her. I had plans to go down to Nola this past week with my boss for a work meeting. A few weeks prior, once we got the final travel approval from the big boss, I had let Lacy know that I'd be in town for a couple of nights and she invited me to stay at her place. Of course, I gladly agreed. 

She called me Monday morning to make sure everything was still on as far as our travel plans, and I told her it was and that I'd give her a call once I dropped my boss off at the hotel.  We rolled into the city about 5:30PM and I dropped the boss off at the front of the hotel and gave Lacy a call.  No answer.  No worries, as she has her own business and uses her mobile as her business line also so she usually calls me right back if she can't answer when I call. So I just headed towards her place. I got there and found a spot to park right in front of her duplex. I called her again. No answer. I sat there for a couple of minutes and she finally called me back. She apologized and said she was on the phone with her mom when I called, and asked where I was. I told her I was sitting in front of her place and without missing a beat, she said "oh ok! I'll come down and let you through the gate." 

A minute or two later she emerged and our eyes met and we both started smiling at each other. I gave her a big hug and she squeezed me tightly for a few seconds and said come on, let's go on up. She lead me to the back staircase leading up to her balcony, which I remember thinking was a little odd at the time, but I followed her lead.   We entered her place through the French doors off the balcony. She went in and I pulled the heavy doors closed behind me.  She had some furniture now but there were still boxes strewn about as she was still in the process of unpacking. 

I hit the restroom and when I came out she was out on the balcony on a phone call. I let her finish her call and she came back in and showed me some of her other furnishings she had set up. We were both hungry so we decided to go over a couple of blocks to get some food. Somewhere during this discussion she mentioned that she had a gay friend that was in town, and that she had told him a while back that they would hang out. She hadn't remembered that this was the same date that I was coming in also and she apologized for overbooking herself. She said something to the effect of "tell you what, let's go get dinner then I'll leave you for like an hour, go visit with him and then we'll hook back up and do whatever we want to do at that point" and I, not wanting to throw a wrinkle in her pre-made plans, agreed. In hindsight, the fact that she didn't invite me to tag along was red flag number 3. 

We walked over a couple of blocks and found our dinner spot and ordered some po-boys.  We ate our food and finished our drinks and started walking back towards her place. I saw a little Irish dive bar with not many too many people and lots of big TVs that looked appealing to me, so I told her, "I'm just going to park at the bar here and watch the game until you either call me to meet you or get back here and then we'll go do whatever." She said "ok sounds great. I'll see you in a little while." and heads off down the sidewalk as I enter the Irish establishment.........
