Gentlemen,
The board has been extremely lacking lately. I, and many of my cronies, have seemingly fallen off the face of the Earth. We no longer post anything of quality.
I was reading some of my old posts from Feb. and March 08. That was such a fun and energetic time and I could not stop laughing. It seemed everything was written with such a youthful energy and I was not yet disillusioned with the opposite sex.
For those that were not around the board during that time I would suggest going through some old posts. The energy we had was ludicrous. I wish everyone could have been a part of early to mid 08. I'm sure many of you guys will chime in with your recollections.
The reason it was such a good time (pick-up wise) for me is because pick-up was everything to me. I let absolutely everything else in my life go by the wayside. I suspect a few of the other guys did as well. It took a while for me to build everything back up.
But hear me now...
I am back.
I was out with a group of the boys at Social House last weekend. I have never in my life seen so many gorgeous women. I was torn between staying and letting the Lion of old roam around and leaving to go home. I thought that I had forgotten pick-up. Forgotten, even, how to speak to a woman. I was even convinced of it. So at Midnight I say my goodbye's and walk to my truck. In the elevator I am with 3 women of some foreign descent. I know this because they were not speaking English. Momentarily I think they probably are wary of me (considering the beard and beanie I probably looked like a recent parolee). The old me took over and I had them laughing, smiling and talking about me in their native tounge within seconds. It felt good. I walk through the garage, to my truck, and get 'r out of there. While driving away I spot a woman who I had been eye-ing in the club. She is leaving by herself as I am driving away. So I roll up to her, roll down the passenger window and ask her why she is following me out. I ask her if she has the number of a good attorney. She asks why. I say so I can file a restraining order against her for being a stalker. Long story short nothing happened with the girl but I can say that it felt great to be back. I could have easily pulled her had I been so inclined.
So...
I'm back and I would like to see some of the other old-timers come back. While it won't, can't, be like it was last year we can still run some tight game and have a good time.
As much as I enjoy hiding in my house, and I do, it will be nice to have a weekend outlet without any hangups. Of course I'm not as hungry as I was a year and a half ago. But dammit I like to eat.
Halloween is fast approaching..
And then Thanksgiving..
And then my favorite time of the year, Christmas.
Let's make it a memorable holiday season.
