Today's special: Shopping trip with a side of a possible mini date, served with a fresh coconut for dessert.
My adventure today was as nice as a lazy summer breeze, blowing up the skirts of women for the entertainment of everyone within sight.
I spent the first half of the day out in the sun, kicking myself over a bad move last night. I ran into Grace on Broadway last night, and she invited me to join her and her friends for drinks. I managed to not pee myself like an excited puppy, and played it cool. Too cool. I said I would have drinks with her, but first I was going to long board around a bit. Bad play, Avery, bad play. Nice move at attempting to not seem too eager. It was a good plan in theory. But by the time I got back to the pub, Grace and her friends were gone. So I missed out on getting to hang out with her, and she probably thinks I didn't want to at all, if she even gave me a second thought. Boo.
Thankfully, my day improved as it went on. I had ice cream with Silk Spectre, and went for little walk together. This was the first time we've seen each other in daylight, and not under disco lights. I would say that is a big step. We were our awkward selves, which is a good thing. At least we know what to expect.
From there I went shopping with Goddess, I bought a couple cute Tees. Then we stopped by Red Pepper for a coconut. Yup, you read correctly, a coconut. It was so good! The perfect summer snack, light and fruity.
I enjoy hanging out with Goddess. She always introduces me to something new, and fun. Goddess and I tend to have a lot of highs and lows in our relationship. We go through periods where we hang out constantly, only to have that followed by a dry spell, where we hardly communicate at all. I think that comes with the territory of being ex's, it is hard to find the proper balance of things. But what is most important is that we are both in a place where we want what is best for each other. And any residual feelings from our relationship have long ago morphed into that of friendship. It makes me happy to have her around, she is a very wise, adventurous person, who is always striving for the best. She has one of the kindest hearts I've ever encountered. Right up there next to my Momma. In addition, she is the reining Queen of Sass. She and I banter like tonsils and tongues battling in a drunken make out session, only with less saliva, and herpes.
I am counting down the days to Pride Week here in Saskatoon. It starts on Sunday! I have the whole week off work, so I will be hitting lots of the events. I will keep you all posted on my adventures, and there will be many of them.
I have to go dig through my closet for my Pride Flag, it is tucked away somewhere in there . . . I think it being in there makes me a bad Queer. Rainbow flags are not meant for closets.
- Love, love, love,
Your Dreamboat.
