arrived home about 4:30 after yet another chaotic work day (my boss being absent still)
---
took a shower, relaxed a bit, and then around 5
Duke arrived
---
Set off almost immediately to
BIG Y---
We bought a bunch of stuff to make Chicken Salads and they
were amazing
---
afterward we sat and talked a bit and then popped in a movie
---
Darkness Falls was his choice from my 300+ DVDs
---
He's a difficult read. I am not so sure where this is going.
But it was a decent evening in any case.
---
Is it just me or does the old "getting to know you phase" seem exhaustive of late ..
---
maybe that in itself is a bad sign... I dunno
---
ok so on to something more positive (my kids, who knew?)
---
I snagged tickets over The Holidays for two events...
---
Taking Back Sunday(my younger son)
UMASS Amherst Mullins Center
---
and..

La nozze di FigaroShubert Theatre
Boston
(my older son, who has developed an adoration for Motzart of late)
---
I have heard much from him about the Historic
Shubert TheatreEvidently it was the first venue Playwright
Arthur Miller ever attended.
---
very much looking forward to both,
as are they.
---

Oh, well, good luck my friend.
HUGS>...
good luck.
Sounds like you have some great things coming up with the boys. I plan on going to the Nutcracker with my girl next Christmas. She'll be three then and I hope ready.
it's so true.
It's very cool your son is getting into Mozart. Culture!
I love how excited you get when you talk about your kids. It's very heartwarming.
Love the song, btw.
-yes people DO get more quirky as they age, especially gay men
-having children, as you do, will keep you less so. I think for myself and a lot of other gay men, we live our lives totally for our selves, there is no built in relationship that forces us to think of someone else first. I think parenthood is a great thing; the absence of which will probably be my biggest regret.
-dating sucks, especially in the very beginning. It tends to paint an overly flattering image of someone or the oppposite: An unrealistically unflattering image of someone. If I held my closest friends to the same litmus test that I hold potential boyfriends, I wouldn't have any friends either. I have a lot of friends. See my point?
Because, Life just beats it into you sometimes...
"Getting to know you" is still something that would be new to me.
Enjoy the concerts with your sons...they're very fortunate to have such a cool dad.
Okay, I feel better now :)
