Yummy. Nothing like nursing a hangover the day after Christmas. I think I should backtrack a wee bit...
Frank and Brett came up from DC last weekend, it was a good time. Frank is this perennially happy person, wrinkle free and perpetually like a kid at Christmas. When I usually meet people like this they tend to also be incredibly stupid. That's what makes Frank so special. He's very intelligent, but just doesn't worry about things. I found out that one of his friends had wrecked one of his scooters, and he was quite calm about the whole thing. I wish I could be that way. I'm not.
Drove back with Frank to DC, went to a lovely bar called Feint. The music was good, the beer was cheap, and the crowd was enjoyable. Ended up meeting a few guys there, including one who was a former Peace Corps volunteer in Russia. Mir tyesen. We ended up talking to a guy who was Russian, then the group expanded to the Russian's friend, who also happened to be the neighbor of the Peace Corps volunteer guy. Their dogs are often walked at the same time.
Jim, Frank's roommate and one of my best friends, is thoroughly disgusted with my uncanny ability to meet guys. I simply have no real fear of rejection, as I don't take it personally if someone isn't interested in me. Everyone knows that I love talking, so it is very easy and natural for me now. When I first started going to gay bars, I had to get totally drunk to even talk to someone, but now I realize that EVERY person there wants to meet other people. One just has to make the first move.
