ACTIVE

Dinner with Dave on Wednesday went well. We went to Birches, shared a bottle of wine, had good conversation. Night ended with a so-so kiss, though we were being rushed by a car coming through behind us. Thursday night after training Justin and I were having dinner when he informed me it was Dave's birthday. We ended up meeting them for a little bit at JDs, and he seemed happy to see me. I didn't want to overstay the welcome and I was tired so Justin and I headed out after a little while. Friday night Andrew and Paula picked me up and we were meeting Holly, Beth and Justin at Portside. Got a delayed response on a text I had sent Dave earlier and he ended up coming out. Justin cock blocked for most of the night, though we did sneak in a bit of kissing at Cosmos. At the end of the night I was just drunk and needed to sleep in my own bed and not do anything I wouldn't remember/would regret so I headed out with Paula. Night ended with some drunken text messaging, and I woke up to "U R Killing Me." I have no idea what elicited that response and when I saw Dave at Little Havanas the next day, he wouldn't really tell me. So I'm not sure if I was annoying him or teasing him. He was also acting a bit removed so I'm sure I said / did something retarded to freak him out. Oh well.

So I got up and worked out Sat morning, then Andrew and I met for a bike ride. Rode down to Schwann park to catch the footballers, then off to Ft. McHenry. It was a good ride to get acquainted with my bike. Afterwards we went to meet Holly and Justin and gang at Little Havana's...then made plans to meet up again at 9:15 at No Way Jose. I was so exhausted I bailed and was in bed by 9pm. Woke up this morning and had breakfast with Andy - thank goodness he's back! Picked up Justin, went to Andrew's and met him and Holly, walked up to Charles and Frankling for the Kelly's Shamrock 5K. Race went ok - I had to stop for about 30 seconds to catch my breath, but was able to finish in 26:40. Not too shabby for not having run outside at all. Andy met us at the Power Plant and the plan for a PM bike ride ensued. After much commotion and a lot of irritation on my part we ended up at the BWI trail. It was nice - a bit chilly which hurt when we were moving, but it was a nice 12 mile ride. Home now and exhausted.

Not quite sure how I feel about the Dave situation. He seemed into it Wed, Thursday and Friday. Texted about possibly meeting up tonight but I doubt that will happen - it's been a long weekend and I've seen him (if even only briefly) everday except today. I'm sure the frequency is a bit much, I kind of have felt that too. We barely know each other, and I've really kind of enjoyed being single over the last few months. I am not looking to get into anything serious...I am still recovering from damage from the last relationship. I think the problem is that I am very impatient, I think that is something I could definitely benefit from working on.

Man, am I exhausted. I feel like I should push to stay awake until 10, but that seems so far away. Supposed to swim in the AM but I don't know if my body can take it after today. Perhaps if I get to bed now I'll be ready in the morning - we'll see...
