Sweet Brad

Brad had a meeting tonight so we didn’t plan to go out or do anything major. I met him at his house and we caught up on what’s been happening with us for the week. We haven’t seen each other since Valentines Day. He’s had a busy week and I was giving him his space to deal with work instead of having to deal with me. I’m nice that way. Ha Ha Ha. After catching up on the week’s events, we decided to take a walk. We walked around the block and talked about the houses in his neighborhood. The weather was nice so it made the walk even nicer. After our walk we decided to go to bed. We laid in bed for a good long time talking. If given the time, Brad and I could talk and talk and talk. Both of us tend to go on and feel very comfortable talking about everything together. It’s refreshing to be with someone who can both talk and listen. We cuddled and enjoyed each other as we fell asleep. Of course, I slept longer and better then Brad. He has to get used to having someone else in his bed. Plus, his cat was a little wild during the night. Brad had to get up and take the cat downstairs so we could get some sleep. The more times we sleep together, the easier it will get for Brad to get a restful night’s sleep. When we woke up we cuddled and chatted and then decided to go to breakfast. I have terrible bed head in the morning and didn’t want to fool with getting in the shower before breakfast so we just quickly got dressed and put hats on and went to breakfast at IHop. It was good but filled me up fast. I had errands to run and things to do so I dropped Brad off at his house and went on my way. It’s always a nice time being with Brad.

I took my new camera to Brad’s house this evening to get even more pictures of him. He hates them all and says he doesn’t look good. I beg to differ. Here are a few. I think they look great. The serious one really shows his dreamy blue eyes. While I was waiting for Brad to get home from his meeting, I was playing with his cat. His cat is so cute. It only has 3 legs. She gets around beautifully without the 4th leg. She has adapted well. She’s adorable.

Scary

In my web surfing I found this poster. It easily reminds me of posters of the late 30’s and 40’s when the Nazi’s were in power. It’s got the same look and feel of the time period. It’s a scary thought and I really doubt it could ever happen in America but the thought is disturbing. Americans would not stand for it, I’m sure. I know some people feel this way about Bush. I do not like what he has done to our country but I don’t feel it would ever get to this point. Scary though.

Sex and The City

Today I watched Oprah and saw the interview with the cast of Sex and The City. A sad time is approaching. The end of Sex and The City. Sunday evening is the final episode of the show. I have watched it from the beginning. I have the first 4 seasons on DVD. I’m sure in time I’ll have the rest of the seasons on DVD at some point. Every Sunday night at 9:00, I would have all my work done and be ready to sit down to see what will happen to her this week. I will miss this show. I have followed Carrie through all her relationships. Last week’s show hinted at the possibility of BIG coming back in her life. She wouldn’t return his calls or see him while he was in town. Of course she was on her way to Paris with her new man at the time. I don’t think Mikhail Baryshnikov is the man she will end up with. I think BIG will go to Paris and sweep Carrie off her feet and they will live happily ever after. I’ve also enjoyed following the other ladies relationships. I love Miranda’s husband, Steve. He’s geeky but I think he’s adorable. I just love this show. I love how gay friendly the show has been over the years as well. A gay version of the show would be the best and it wouldn’t be like Queer as Folk, even though I enjoy that show too. Come Sunday night, I’ll be glued to the couch at 8:00 to watch the Farewell show and then at 9:00 for the final episode. I’ll miss it when it’s over!

Valentines Day

Even though Brad and I had a long day together in West Virginia, we decided to get together this evening for a quiet night at home. So I went over to Brad’s at 6:00. We gave each other small gifts for Valentines Day. We then decided to walk to Panera Bread for some dinner. I wasn’t hungry so I just had a drink. Brad decided on some French onion soup. After dinner, we walked back to Brad’s house. Brad doesn’t have a DVD player or a TV worth watching, so I brought my 17 inch PowerBook over to watch a movie. I set it up and we watched Trick. I enjoyed the movie but Brad thought it was sad. If you have seen the movie, you know it ends with the promise of the two guys building a relationship. Brad thought this was sad because he thinks it’s a bad representation of gay relationships. He is of the opinion that the vast majority of gay relationships don’t last. While that may be true to some extent, I don’t think you should have the pessimistic view that all gay relationships will fail. I like the possibility of a relationship lasting a long time, if not for life. I think it’s what most gay men want. I know there are complications and other things get in the way of relationships working out and lasting but I still think it’s a possibility. Sam and Mark, friends of Brad’s, have been together almost 20 years. I think that should be proof enough that it can work. I have my work cut out for me. So after the movie we had this discussion about gay relationships working out and lasting. We both enjoyed the conversation and without words, agreed to disagree. After the movie Brad and I had a nice intimate time (leaving the details out because it’s none of your business..he he he). Then I stayed over! Yes, I actually slept over at Brad’s house. This was the first time we actually slept together. We were in bed by 12:00 and I fell right to sleep, snuggled up close to Brad. I slept through the night. Brad told me this morning that he tossed and turned a few hours before falling asleep and didn’t sleep that long. When his cat started licking my hand early this morning, I woke up. Brad was already awake so we cuddled and talked about how we slept. It was very nice waking up next to him. Brad has a long standing arrangement to have breakfast with some neighbor friends so I wasn’t about to disrupt it with my presence. So I got dressed and borrowed a hat to cover my bed head and went home. Overall it was a wonderful weekend spent with someone I really enjoy. I know we’ll have many others in the future.
