Weekend, Part II. Summer Sun.

I think I did a fairly good job of moving on and having a good time this weekend after running into Kevin. I spent Saturday out in Lakeway at this FAB-ulous house overlooking the lake. This guy (I haven't come up with a moniker for him yet) invited me out to his friend's house to enjoy the summer sun, a nice pool, and a good BBQ.

It was good times. The house was gorgeous. The pool was nice and cool. And the guys were funny and hilarious. It was interesting. I spent the day trying to be cute, charming, and funny. I think I pulled it off. It was a little challenging at times, though, cuz this guy's friends kept asking me all sorts of questions. I know they were just doing the "friend inspection," but it's been a while since I've felt so under the microscope.

At one point while I was reapplying my sunscreen, I got asked if I was datable. "Huh???" was my reply. I don't remember exactly how he phrased his follow-up question, but he basically wanted to see if I was emotionally available for a relationship. I didn't know how to respond. I still don't. Eh.... schmee.

When I got home, I was drained. I love hanging out by water during the summer, but it always takes so much out of me.

I'm slowly but surely getting some color to my "sensitive alabaster skin." Hopefully it'll be enough by the time I head out to the desert at the end of August.
