Fabulous anyway

Wednesday, 10 August

If I talked about the Kiwi guy again, I would sound so "ga-ga" about him but anyway, I shall. We had lunch yesterday but I was supposed to be in the meeting at 2 and had to get prepared for it, I couldn't have long lunch with him. We went to a Japanese restaurant and it was pleasant. My gaydar did not go "ping" at all while I was talking to him. After lunch, I got an e-mail message from him that he asked me for drinks the following day which is today. I went back home immediately after work to change my clothes. I changed into the best shirt of the year. I felt so fabulous. I was ready to go for fabulous cocktails with a fabulous guy. Where we would meet was a little far from work or my home. He wasn't there so I waited for him while watching people pass by this beautifuly illuminated stairway which you could see in the photo. An hour later, I got a text message on my cell that he couldn't make it. I wish he at least had a courtesy to call instead of a message. I called some friends to go for drinks and enjoy this fabulous outfit. They were all unavailble. It was too late for any alternative plans. But I still felt fabulous. I went into one of the fabulous bars and had drinks. I might have looked pathetic for people there but I enjoyed drinks at the bar. While drinking 2 martinis, I asked a waiter for a piece of paper and drew something as I didn't have an option to talk to somebody. Yeah, it was kinda sad but I enjoyed it. I stopped by a bookstore and browsed some art books. I walked back home while people who pass me by seemed so happy being each other's company. I enjoyed being alone. The most fabulous thing of all for tonight was it didn't rain even though clouds were very thick. But honestly, I don't wanna get used to being alone too much. It was a great night to think about things and to see Tokyo summer night by myself. It was fabulous anyway. Have a great night/day you, all. :-)

well, the kiwi guy has just gone down one notch on the yay-meter. he really should have texted you as soon as he knew that he was going to be late and not an hour after you were supposed to meet up. that's just rude.

however, i'm glad to hear that you still had a fab time by your lonesome.

You're fabulous darling! And I agree with raphinou...minus points for being so inconsiderate!

But you're such a happy trooper, I'm glad that didn't get you down. A lot of people I know wuld have just started cursing and swearing and would have gone home to eat a whole tub of Ben & Jerrys.

Hi Raph,

Yeah, it was a major drawback but I considered it as an unexpected free time so I was able to do what I couldn't do usually. I figured he was in the meeting he had to attend at the last minute. But I wanted him to call to be honest. Maybe, some other time. ;-) Thanks for stopping by. Good day!

Hi Will,

Thank you, Will! Yeah, major minus points. But I enjoyed being alone. Maybe, little "they should be sold on campus" drinks helped me a lot. :-) But Ben & jerry's thingy would be a good idea. I haven't seen Ben&Jerry's ice cream here though... Oh, Dark chocolate ice cream... yum.... :-) Thanks for stopping by. You have a great evening!
