Lunch with Len :)

 Diary,

Today I had lunch with Len, but, let me start at the beginning.

Last night I called Len and left a message saying something like, "Hey Len! Its Brett. if you don’t have any plans, was wondering if you wanted to get dinner and maybe see a movie. And about lunch tomorrow. Give me a call back. Im looking forward to seeing you."

That was at 5:15pm. I know it was 5:15pm because I was gonna try calling him at 5:30 BUT I COULDN"T WAIT!

I got a text a few hours later saying, "Hey got your message. With family tonight; movies. I’ll text u later to see about tomorrow afternoon."

Since Len wasn’t free that evening, my cousin (13) wanted to go see Harry Potter. I agreed and we saw it in 3D at 10:10pm. It was WAY better than part one.

I set my alarm for 9am, thinking Len would text by then. Nope ๐Ÿ™ So I went back to bed. I woke up at 11am and saw Len text me at 10am. Here is our conversation:

Len: Good morning! What time were you thinking of meeting up for lunch? And where?

Me: Hey ๐Ÿ™‚ I’m free when you are. Maybe 1? Do you like dim sum?

Len: Where at? Lol

Me: Ming Dynasty. 1551 Eubank Blvd.

Len: Sounds good.

12:30 sound good?

Me: Okay ๐Ÿ™‚ 12:30 sounds good.

Len: See u then;-)

I barely had time to shower, get ready, and head to lunch, but, I took it as a great sign that he wanted to get lunch sooner ๐Ÿ˜€ We chatted about a few different things and ate. I found it enjoyable and I hope he did too. He bought a dog, just a couple days ago. He asked about what was new in my life and I told him my cousin’s son came to live with us and my aunts broke up. I kind of left out the fact that Tammy shot herself because I didn’t want to bring my drama into it just meeting him again after these years. He said he was a little surprised I contacted him after all this time and I told him when we dated i wasn’t looking for much and, leaving much detail out, I told him when my ex and I broke up it made me realize I want more out of a relationship. I was talking to Rachel about it and his name came up, so I reread diary entries about him and thought I would get in contact. After, there was that long, after-date hug where you try to feel each others bodies ๐Ÿ™‚ On the drive to Rachel’s I text him:

Me: Thanks for having lunch with me! I had a lot of fun and look forward to hanging out again ๐Ÿ™‚

Len: Likewise;-)

 I’m debating if I should ask if he wants to get dinner tomorrow or maybe take his dog for a talk or to a dog park. Is that me pushing too much or not? I’m not sure. I suppose there is no harm in asking.

Sincerely,

Awesome! Good idea about the dog park… Nothing wrong with getting on both his and the poochies good side ๐Ÿ˜›

the dog park sounds good, it makes it look like you’re taking an interest and making an effort into not only digging on him but on something that he obviously loves (his dog)
