Dreams unwind...

It was another truly amazing weekend with my dearest Mr. E....

Friday we were going to do sushi - I have never had 'proper' sushi. I showed up at his place and he showed me some outfits out of the Ann Taylor 'Loft' Catalogue. He completely nailed the styles I'd love. I was amazed at his tastes. I love her clothing - this years past line wasn't all that great but her new fall line is amazing. So now I have to save up to go get some of the outfits...

We went for sushi at a place in Mentor and I really enjoyed it - it was filling and surprisingly good - for dessert we had Lychees - mmmm nummy.

Then, we took a short jaunt to the mall - he wanted to show me some prints he liked. His taste in art is really wonderful - he has a good eye.

We went into a couple of clothing places - I think he was 'testing' me - or testing my sense of fashion (not in a bad way) - I myself have a good eye for clothing - unfortunately, *my* taste is expensive and I can not always justify paying that kind of money.

I DO so love Ann Taylor's line of clothes though and I look good in them...

Then we rented a movie (well 2) at Blockbusters

Once Upon a Time in China and Run, Lola, Run (I had never seen the first one and loved the second one).

I like martial arts films - the choreography is amazing and Jet Li is amazing. I can do without some of the violent scenes but it was OK.

We retired and I spent a somewhat sleepless night - to be awoken by him, talking about the 'dream' he had about us...and well...all I can say is wow/amazing/*sighs*...(mainly cause you guys aren't getting anymore here in this venue).

Saturday, he had to go to his daughter's game - one of these days I hope to go as well - it would be nice to see her play.

Saturday afternoon I headed over there and we decided to stay in for dinner - I cooked fish and pan-fried potatoes for him. It was a nice dinner and we had a beautiful moment together at dinner - I just feel so close to him at times...it's uncanny....

We watched this movie that night:



This is a box of kleenex movie - well it was for us, at least. Both of us have had very similar circumstances in our lives - and I began crying and so did he...the fact that we were able to act like this around each other only proved even more to me how much he means to me and how much more I want to be with him...if it's possible to want to be with him more...

We were both I think a bit worn out from watching the movie - it was very draining emotionally.

(As far as a movie review goes - I would not necessarily put this at the top of my list to recommend. It IS like a dream in terms of it being disjointed - Dante's Inferno on Acid is what I will call it and being trapped in a Maxfield Parrish painting as well...)

So we went up to bed..to sleep. I for some reason again did not sleep really well - I don't know why this time - perhaps it was the emotion of the movie - I also am still not used to sleeping in strange places (LOL well his place isn't strange) but I've always struggled sleeping in different beds than my own...

Sunday morning we woke up got ready, went to church - again it was nice - it feels right. He had given me a beautiful gift of a rosary before he went on vacation - and we had it blessed by the priest who said mass.

After mass we went back and he cooked a light lunch and then we spent some time talking, snuggling, laughing and then he took me to meet some of his friends (he was suppose to meet my son and we were going to lunch but it ended up not working out - which is OK we will do this soon).

His friends and their children were amazing - what adorable kids, bright, funny, gorgeous and I had a blast - good people, really good people.

Again there's still moments where I am thinking too much - trying to 'categorise'/glean more from what he says than is perhaps necessary. I am in a constant state of amazement at the way we communicate. There's no struggle to 'talk' there's no 'gee I can't say that' - his openness and his willingness to listen are always such a wonderful surprise and so touching.

I can't say it's always going to be this way...yes I guess we are just 'dating' (*sighs* whatever the fuck that means anymore) - but sometimes I want to get ahead of myself for obvious (at least to me) reasons....but it will be with patience and perserverence that this will work - nothing more...nothing less.

Maybe a king size bed will help you sleep - that way there is more space to toss and turn.
