At the risk of sounding like sour grapes, I'm going to post anyway. You see, I'm a married man - no, that's not why I'm sour. I'm sour because I like to travel to greece and my wife doesn't. So, I don't hobby quite as much as the usual chap on here and I'm pretty specific in what I look for.
My wife went out of town yesterday and I had one of a very few opportunities to check out the local scene.
I did all my research and set my eyes on someone I wanted to meet, which is harder than it sounds since everyone wants references. I get that, a girl has to be safe. I'm still struggling with how to break into this rather exclusive club of being referenceable. When I go out of town, the providers don't seem nearly as adament about references, but they also aren't really referenceable as I'm just a guy from out of town.
Anyway, I digress....I got a hold of someone who seemed a bit more open, and booked an appointment. There was no explicit talk, or anything that I figure would give any bad impressions.
The next morning, I rescheduled my calendar at work and made my plans for a midday diversion. I called my girl back and she didn't answer. Hmmmm, that's odd, I could have sworn she said to call her around 10:00, no worries - I left a message. I didn't get a call back, so I called back around 11:30, still no answer. Now, my day is screwed and I'm not.
So, I pull up my boots and figure, I'll at least get a massage. Call and schedule and appointment, drive through snowy roads across town, have some dumbass hit the car in front of me doing 60, make it to my appointment, stressed but safe, looking very forward to my massage, only to find....wait for it.....can you guess.....a no show. So, I called back, she answered and said she couldn't find her keys. Okay, I'll cut her some slack. I head home to meet my kid for the night.
So, I sit here with a full wallet and my wife coming back to town tonight. I hope you had a nicer day than I did yesterday.
