Sleepwalking on the Cloud 9

[jack_babalon]

Dead tired. Our second date went later than expected. Took her to CSC down in Cabbage Town. We talked over red wine and an almond-honey glazed brie. Afterwards we walked around the neighborhood. I gave her the two dollar tour of all the old homes and eccentric gardens. Streams of Christmas lights hung like vines from driveways. Red bulbs lit up quiet windows. Toy dolls and silverware rose from the soil side by side with roses and gardenias. Morning Glorys grew wild around a 'No Parking' sign. The scent of Jasmine and Honeysuckle hung in the still air. She took my hand. She smiled at my nervous smile.

yayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyay!!!

You most certainly deserve some Cloud 9 walking, Dearest!

This almost beckons me out of hiding... just so I can get some details! Maybe this coming week? What does your calendar look like, DateMan? I am saying that I will venture forth some this weekend and I may need to retreat under my covers Monday, so how's your week shaping up?

Karis burned the cd and I need to get your original back... if my venturing heads me in your direction on Sunday, I'll drop it by if that's okay? I LOVE the cd!!! Actually, been a bit therapeutic... light-hearted and nostalgic!

Miss you.

Beautiful. I second ordering up a date like that!

I'm busy tomorrow night that's for sure. I'm trying to see when Magpie will be free so I can work on this script a bit more but outside of that i'm fairly open. When you're feeling a bit better give me a call and we'll try and hammer out logistics:)

Glad you're digging the CD, if John, Paul, George & Ringo can't put a smile on your face then the rest of us are truly screwed:)

Thank you ma'am. I don't know about tonight, but when you come back to the ATl to visit from Milwaukee, you and your Mr.G should definetly try and take a stroll through Cabbagetown at night. There's a lot of character to the neighborhood that's somehow survived the Gentrification onslaught and it really comes out at night for some reason.

Appreciate that Hon:)

Well it's really because i'm one part goofball romantic and two parts broke, so cafes and long walks through the park are about all I can budget.

Thanks D.
