Double booked

I was double booked all weekend... kinda ironic and funny at the same time.. Unfortunately, i didn't end up with a date after all.. but i still had a great time with my children.
Friday night... after work i went to the karaoke bar. And while i was there Penn showed up... He lost my number and said he thought he'd never see me again. He said, wow, i've only been to this bar a couple times and both time i meet you... what a coincidence. (HA, i didn't want to say.. well, no, i come here ALL the time) He's very cute, though, but there's something about him that i'm not sure about.. i think it's that he's so clingy. Not sure if it's me or him.. but we'll see... So, he asked me out for Saturday. He said he had tickets to a concert and didn't want to go alone. I wasn't sure if i could get a sitter but so i said maybe.. call me tomorrow. At the same time, Friday night, Sean started calling me EVERY hour... I was interested but not really. Friday was the end of a long week for me... So i ignored his calls. But he left a sweet message actually saying "i want to spend the day with you. I have nothing going on Saturday and i leave Sunday." I was curious about the "leave" part.. how long and where...
So i called Sean back on Saturday and left him a voice message. So, Saturday, i was double booked... Spend the evening with Sean or concert with Penn? Hmmmmmm.... Well, the concert started at 8 pm, which was too early for me, i couldn't get a sitter til 9 pm. So a movie at Sean's house sounded like a good idea.... BUT he decided since he had to work Sunday and drive 4 hrs to and from, he canceled, too. So, "double booked" turned into "double cancellation". Sean said, let's do it sunday. "cool", i thought.
Sunday - double booked again?...LOL.. Penn called me sunday, too and left a voice message. I thought, hmmm, i wonder if he wants to get together tonight? Sean was suppose to call when he got back. But i had a feeing he wouldn't if he worked all day and that long drive. I was right and Sean didn't call. I returned Penn's call but it went to voice mail and i didn't leave a message. Again, no date on Sunday night. BUT i bought a new DVD game and played with my 5 children all night. We had a blast.
I'm hoping Penn tries to reschedule with a date.. i haven't been on a real date in a long while..
I still had a great weekend with friends and family.. but i thought it was very funny to be double booked... too bad it didn't turn out to a date.

Perhaps... but i thought seeing the missed call would be enough... my bad.
WW took pictures of us talking on friday night and he takes a really cute picture! I'm going to give it a couple days before i call back... I don't know his age, but i suspect he's young (like all the other guys i date...lol).. I'm guessing 25-27.
I'll keep you posted for sure...
Okay quick update...
Penn just called at 8:26 pm. I'm still at work so I couldn't really talk BUT he did ask me out to "get a bite to eat"....after work one day... He said call him. I said okay.
I'm thinking, too bad I can't meet him out tonight but my brother called dibs for him and his new wife.
Anyway, Penn said, "i saw that you called yesterday" (he saw the missed call) but he was already asleep because he works 7 days a week.. He told me his work schedule is 7am - 5:45pm...
I'll be sure to call him later in the week...

I would call tomorrow if you are interested in him. Since we have many new members, will you remind us?
Have you heard any more from the other job? I was hoping maybe they got your new CD? That was exciting news, too.
You crack me up!
Okay, I called Penn yesterday as i was leaving work at 8:00 pm. I wasn't going to be as bold as to say "lets do dinner"... so i was subtle and asked what he was up to.... He said he was watching The Daily Show.... He asked what i was doing and i said, i'm just leaving work and i'll probably head to the bar. He said, he was pretty much down for the night since he works early. He asked if he could call me "tomorrow at this time".. which will be 8 pm tonight. I said okay.... i think he meant getting together but will see for sure if he calls. (I don't really believe guys when they say they will call until they actually call.... but that's how i end up not making plans until the last minute and getting double booked..d'oh.)
But I did actually go to the karaoke bar. WW and I sang a million songs together...like "Hold On" by Wilson Philips, "Push It" by Salt n Pepper, and "Seperate Ways" by Journey...and many more...
Weather forecast... yes, still raining men. Last night Jimmy asked me out for Saturday....i've lost a lot of interest in him, though since he apparently doesn't have the guts enough to follow through with an actual date... So I'm not holding my breath but if he does call and i'm not otherwise booked i'll go....
I also got a call last night from ChiliPepper at about 10:30 pm. He left a message saying he wanted to get together... But i have a strong feeling he's only interested in sex and frankly i'm not interested. Although he wasn't bad company, i already have an FWB...don't want another...
And of course, Sean, who just sent me a text about wanting to get together tonight.... He wrote... "I know i always drunk call you, but you have plans tonight? Want to go to the bar (just me and a buddy) :-)" Then he called but i didn't pick up since i'm still at work. He's really fun company and great in bed..
Decisions.. decisions.. Penn said he was going to call tonight, too...yikes.
So that makes four prospects in only two days.... yes, It's Raining Men!!!!
WW and I had soooo much fun singing last night, too. Crazy songs....LOL.
Loonybunny ~ who can't decide on what to do tonight... but i'll keep you posted.
See, once again, you crack me up!
Had an absolute BLAST last night... but can you guess who i went out with.....lol?
And the winner is ... SEAN!!! I talked to him after my post last night and decided to meet him at a bar (not the usual karaoke bar though). On the phone he said, i'm trying to be a nice guy here and invite you out with me... (wow, i thought,) he went on to say... "we usually just have sex which is completely awesome.. but now i want to do something else." That statement made me smile... He wants to do something MORE with me... what is really cool to me is that i'm not the one "chasing" him or advancing the relationship... He is!! I could really go either way still at this point... but he is VERY cute, a GREAT kisser, and tons of fun, too.
So I met him at this tiny bar near his house.. apparently one of his fave hangouts. What was cool was that he was bragging on me... check out my beautiful woman.... Then we played pool against a couple of his friends and we won both games. His friends told us 12 different times to "get a room" LOL.. too funny... After his friend said it the first time, i said... how many times do you think they'll say it all night... so i started counting... We were only there for an hour and a half... Before going back to his place...
Like i said, i don't take guys too serious or expect much... not sure if that's a good thing or bad... i feel like I'm guarding my heart til i get to know someone... Sean and I have been getting together for 3 months. He said he talks about me all the time to his friends.... He didn't have to work today and wanted me to stay all night and all day... but i do have to work so I left in the middle of the night... But i have a huge smile on my face (for some reason). I had so much fun on an actual date with him... And i get the impression that HE is getting attached. Not a bad thing.
OOOOO, how exciting!!!!
Keep us posted!
More news on this double booked thing going on for me this week...
Last night, Penn DID call... once at 8:30 pm and again at 8:50 pm. Was it bad of me not to answer? But by that time i had decided to meet up with Sean... so i turned my phone on silent. And wouldn't ya know it, Penn tried calling me again tonight. I didn't answer because i'm at work but i'll call back later if i get a chance....
I guess i'd be a real player if i lied about last night, right? I was thinking of being vague... "something else came up"... that's not a lie and it doesn't say flat out "another guy" which would hurt his ego... But somehow i don't think he'll even ask about last night and perhaps would only focus on tonight... we'll see.
