The end of summer is approaching. It's been a great one so far. Haven't really traveled, with my focus on little things around my house. The bar is done, now I'm just trying to find a time to have people over. It's been busy the last few weeks, with cookouts and dinners popping up everywhere. Right now I think the weekend of the 17th. I need to start checking around with peeps to see what works for them.
Chris and I are making plans for the holidays already. Last year we visited his friends in Chicago for their annual get together. This year it looks like they're all coming to town, to stay at either my place or at a local hotel. I can't wait! I'm already thinking of menu ideas.
Speaking of Chris, we've been going out for over a year now, and it's going wonderfully. I really can't remember someone I've dated with whom I felt such a shared connection. We aren't carbon copies by any means, but our interests do complement each other's to a rather unusual degree.
It may sound odd, but in the past I found it hard to treat my boyfriends like real people. Jokes or playful cracks would too often be taken the wrong way, and the end result would be a relationship where I was walking on eggshells, with a forced niceness at all times, not knowing what would set them off. Chris is the complete opposite. I can be myself, at last.
