The coolest kid in the universe

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

So I met this woman a couple of weeks ago. We’ve been out a few times, and I’ve found her to be beautiful, fun, smart, sexy, beautiful, compassionate, beautiful, well-educated, beautiful, spiritual, funny, warm, and beautiful. There is some slight possibility that she may, someday, talk me into liking her a little.

She won’t introduce me to her kids yet (and I’m good with that!), but she’s told them about me. Her daughter is usually very interested in her mom’s love life, but her son never is. He just doesn’t care. And that’s OK, because his mom tends to date guys that don’t even want to try to get along with her kids. But he’s been asking about me. He’s been asking about me A LOT.

I play guitar. The ex-husband plays guitar. In fact, we attended the same music school, and possibly at the same time. The son wants to go there someday. He plays guitar as well.

As it turns out, I have a lot in common with this kid. And he knows it.

Last Wednesday, I did the mom a favor by accompanying her to Guitar Center to help pick out a new instrument for the kid’s birthday. She wants to buy him a Strat. (Did I mention that she’s the coolest mom ever? Did I mention that she’s awesome?) She repaid my kindness by buying me dinner and giving me a warm wet kiss that lasted about an hour. Hey, I’m only too happy to help out. It’s all about the music, dude. Musical philanthropy is my bag, baby.

So the plan is for mom, dad, and son to go back to the store and actually choose and pay for a guitar.

Said the son: “I don’t want dad to go with us. I want tdn to go with us.”

Aww. :slight_smile:

Sounds promising. Good luck!

3

tdn, dude, I think you forgot to mention she’s beautiful :slight_smile:

4

It’s very promising. What makes it even better is that her kids approve of me and her parents want to meet me. All this after only three dates.

5

Oops, sorry.

She’s beautiful.

6

She’s not good enough for you.

7

Yay! I remember coming out of lurkerdom and running into you in a thread where you said you wanted a long term relationship. I hope this works out for you.

8

Sounds great, tdn! Good on you, and good luck.

9

Yeah, I know. But her kids sound cool.

Oh, and she took me to my favorite place in the world, sat me on a beach, and fed me bacon. I think she deserves to be ravished a bit for that.

10

Wow! Way to go!

My friends’ kids are growing and becoming cool people as well. I saw them on the weekend; it was a birthday party with four generations in one house. [sub]I managed to addict the oldest boy and two of the men to Desktop Tower Defense.[/sub] :smiley:

Having cool adults in your life who play guitar and buy you Stratocasters. I just have to say that this is so far removed from my experience as a kid during the Generation Gap that it’s almost surreal.

12

Your favorite place in the world has both beach and bacon?! Actually, now that I think about it, it seems almost self-evident.

Where is this mystical tropical pork-infused paradise?

13

I’m sure the boy thinks you are as beautiful as the mom; I might add that I think the same.

14

Yeah, I was going to say that my parents were never that cool. Thet never bought me a guitar. Then I remembered that they bought me four of them. Never a Strat, though.

I’m really happy that the woman likes me. I’m really happy that the kids want to meet me. But the dog? She greeted me with a laconic and unenthusiastic “Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy!”

15

That’s awesome, tdn!! Sounds like you found a keeper (the lady and the kid!)

16

Rockport, MA. I lurves me that town.

17

Sounds like things are going well! Good luck in both relationships.

18

And that her name is Red Hot Hottie.

19

Thank you everyone for your well wishes. That means a lot.

Her name is indeed Red Hot Hottie. Or Guitar Mommy.

I’m so happy for you! :slight_smile:
