Tuesday 7/18, After work I didn’t really do anything and decided that by 7:15 having not heard from Buck yet I would put a pizza in the oven for dinner. As I was preheating he called me and we made plans for me to pick him up later that night to go to Cowgirls Inc. After Susan and I watched WoF and Jeopardy I started doing my makeup and just as I was about done my phone rang and Buck said he was tired after working out, eating dinner and shopping and asked if he could take a rain check. I was a little disappointed because I wanted to see Andy, but also a little relieved that I wouldn’t be staying up half the night entertaining my new out of town friend. Jessica informed me earlier via email that Buck knows everyone in London and that when I come I’ll be totally connected. Yay, plus he told me that he’ll probably be back in late October for a week and a couple of times a year after that and that when he comes back we’ll go on a weekend and get the complete Cowgirls Inc experience. He told me he knew how much I wanted to ride that mechanical bull and that he didn’t want to deny me of it. Ha, yeah, that’s why I go to CI. So I stopped putting my makeup on and watched the Kathy Griffin show and Queer Eye until 11 then read before going to sleep.
Monday 7/17, Jessica called me at work because she knows a guy from London, though he’s American, who is staying in Seattle for the week and he’s bored and would like to be entertained. Naturally she called me for this job. She told me he goes by Buck and is really nice and that she knew she could trust me with him. I didn’t know how to interpret this and was left guessing what kind of guy I would have on my hands. As I was running an errand for work, Buck called and said he would call me later from his hotel when he got back into Seattle from Tacoma. After work I did some very light grocery shopping and then home to shower and lay around waiting to see if Buck called me or not. I ate an apple and some cashews and just as I was mid-cashew my phone rang and it was Buck seeing if I wanted to grab some dinner (it was almost 7:00) so I told him I could be there in about a half hour and that I would meet him at his hotel. I primped up and set out for the Sheraton, found a parking space far away (about 4 blocks) and walked down. I had the bellhop guy call up to his room and tell him I was waiting in the lobby. He came down, we did introductions then we set off. He was tall, like 6’2” about a 7.5 in the looks department and very nice from the get go. We walked back up to my car and headed to Mojito by way of Kassie’s suggestion. I found it ok and we found another good parking space even though Buck was leery of parking in a load/unload spot, but it was after 6:00 so we were golden. We went in and Kassie was right in describing it as “not a date-y place”. We chose a spot by the windows and chatted it up. I ordered the mango chicken from Kassie’s rave review of it and we got some Epinadas (sp?) which were really really good, I would have ordered a whole entrée of those if I could have. The conversation was great and we both learned a lot about each other and that he has a gf, which was a relief because I didn’t want to feel that pressure of anything happening, and has traveled extensively and all sorts of other things, like our somewhat shared stance on children. Then I told him about B a little bit and about Andy and Cowgirls Inc, and surprisingly he’s heard of it and that him and his friends had wanted to go there, so I’m thinking perfect opportunity but that they’re not open on Mondays, but asked if he’d like to go the next night. He did, but was worried about showing up with the girl that gets grope-y hugs from the bouncer. Then he said he would say I’m his sister and like, “Dude, isn’t she hot, look at that body, I’m telling you she can suck the chrome right off a trailer hitch” which had me in stitches. So that got me very excited thinking that I was going to get to see Andy the next night, but hope he doesn’t think I’m a stalker (Andy, I don’t care what Buck thinks). We finally left and drove around for a little bit and decided that we would both call it an early night so that we could live it up the next evening so I dropped him off on the corner and thanked him for dinner. I drove home and took it easy in my room for the remaining hour and a half of the night.
