Nigels's stupid dating story thread

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

So um

I picked up a guy at a truck stop last night.

No, actually, it's classier than that, but still, that's basically what happened. I went to the Ponderosa Lounge at Jubitz to see the last Git Rights show because Michael Shawn is moving to Austin, and when I walked in there was this man. He was just standing there on the other end of the bar (one of those huge square bars like casinos have), like he had a right to be there or something. HOT HOT HOT. And that thing happened where our eyes met across the room. I was like, holy shit! So we just stared at each other while some random dude bought me a drink, and then I went and danced, and there he was over there so I went and stood next to him as bold as can be. It turned out that he's a friend of Michael Shawn's, which figures because Michael Shawn is also HOLY FUCKING HELL HOT.

And then we went to the afterparty at the Kenton and then we went to his house. Which is where I woke up.

He is a boat carpenter and he has a floating workshop (he showed me pictures of his work, it's beautiful). Conveniently, he lives about five blocks from my house.

I have never in my life picked up a guy in a bar. Granted, we have mutual friends and we were both there to see said mutual friends, but still. ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED.


Hello, summer.

So you met Jesus?

Yes, I believe I did.

Jesus looks a little like a cross between George Clooney and a young Don Johnson.

...I'm sorry, but was that Keith Allen walking about in the blue shirt in the
Vindaloo song? 'Twas quite catchy. Footballer's anthem, innit?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

The Vindaloo song was wondrous!

Man, Mortal Kombat. Brings back memories.

Wow, I guess it's probably predictable but today I have a big dose of melancholy... I'm missing M.L. really hard. It makes sense, because meeting the shipwright is another step away from him, but it's still pretty achy.

[Suu]

I'm sorry, tell me more about this sexy shipwright please. 

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Hmmm welll... he plays guitar in a honky-tonk band and has longish gray hair and BRIGHT blue eyes. I don't even know enough about him to say much, considering we just met! He likes William Shatner and sometimes thinks about going to drum circles and deliberately beating out of time, or going to poetry slams and reading purposefully awful poetry, except that nobody would get it. I played him "Yes you can, in Spokane" and he loved it.

Hopefully he'll call me today.

Not bad. 

$10 says if you start dating him, Mr Language will suddenly change his mind.

Dok,
Knows guys, being one.

Yeah, I've considered that likelihood.

Right now I really don't know what I'd do. I know what I SHOULD do, but not what I would do.

You already know my opinion, because I also know that the moment he was sure shipwright boy was out of the picture, he'd rediscover his undying love of that 20-something girl.

Give this guy a shot, if he's interested.  He has, among other things, a job AND a musical/artistic interest.

As far as I know, the 20-something is long since out of the picture entirely. Basically, he thought that he could snap his fingers and hook back up with her, she was furious and offended, and they haven't spoken since. But yeah, same basic principle applies.

The way I see it, if I keep seeing the shipwright my goal should be to keep it quiet enough for long enough that by the time M.L. even realizes, I'll be well and truly over him.

This is an excellent idea, Nigel.  Also with regards to him being all over your facebook, tell him again that you need a no-contact thingy still, and if that doesn't work don't log into your personal account for a few days at a time, if that's possible.  Seriously, you don't need him anymore.  You've got bigger fish to fry and better things to do than play silly games with men who can't put the effort into fixing their problems.
