Life, life

I am done with being a freshmen. I'm home in NYC where the food is good. I just told my sister that I was not returning to college. Now to tell so many others. . .
I don't want to go.

[Marvin D.]

The masses demand details

[Shennifer]

awwwww AE went on a date

that's cute

and yes, we demand details!

[Amethystic]

*chants* AE's got a girlfriend, AE's got a girlfriend! (Unless this is another one of your fake internet girlfriends. )

[American Eagle]

No one is my girlfriend until we become Facebook official.

Details... we mutually decided to 'hang out' saturday night... but then I said I'd pick her up... and she wanted me to meet her parents... and I gave her a pink flower. It ended up being a date. We went bowling and then to a fancy restaurant, where we stayed and talked until closing time. Then I drove her home. It was a classy as a date could be.

I don't know, guys... it was definitely more fun than any internet girlfriend.

[Whitty Whit]

*gasp* Gah, JJ actually had a date in real life? I thought he was only into the internet girls. Already meeting her parents, flowers, bowling... man, sounds like a true love story to me.

AE, you smooth talking hunk

[Marvin D.]

AE, you smooth talking hunk

Say that again, and I'll spill my drink on this laptop

And AE gets to call Shennifer boring and groups her as "any Internet girlfriend," and she aww's pays him a compliment?

This world has no justice.

well I was sorta being sarcastic.

and when did he call me boring??

[American Eagle]

I never called you boring, Shen.

...but if this one works out, darling, we may have to break up.

[Shennifer]

I believe you, AE. Marvin is just trying to stir up trouble

I suppose I'll survive, somehow
maybe I'll find me a real life boyfriend, then.

[Amethystic]

You do realize, AE, that if this thing pans out into a full-out relationship, you're going to have to bring her on here to show the rest of us. If she can survive our crazy shenanigans, then you'll know for sure that she's a keeper.

He said she's more fun than any Internet girlfriend Somehow he gets to get away with everything he says. Pffft.

Hey, who ever said we were crazy?

This morning I checked my email, and I had an interesting message in my inbox--Gmail's filters decided it was for keeps, apparently. Here's part of it

Greeting from Las Vegas ,
I thought you sounded like some one I would very much like to get to know, and perhaps becomes very good friends with, or???

I do know that is a very common practice for "ex-boy friends", to post their ex-girl friends name on the internet, and sometimes class mates and friends like to play cruel jokes on people, so if you are the victim of some one Else's cruel sense of humor and are not interested in getting making a new friend, then I will perfectly understand, and all you have to do in order to insure that I will not disturb you again is to simply not reply to this e-mail.

On the other hand, if you feel that a friendship and/or other type of relationship is something you would welcome and be open to then allow Me to introduce My self and tell you a little bit about Me.

I am a 48 year old, Caucasian American Male, living and working in Las Vegas , Nevada ( U.S.A. )
I am well educated and well traveled.
I am a widower, with two fully grown Filipino/American Sons who I am very proud of.
I lost their mother(s) to a drunk driver in a car crash, a few years, ago.
I loved them and miss them both very much, but I have grieved for more than a reasonable period, and with the blessings of my sons decided it is time to region the real world and see if I can find someone I can spend the rest of my life with..., Which is why I am sending this introduction to you now. In the hopes that we might become good and long lasting friends, or???

I don't smoke tobacco products, or drink hard liquor, but I will have a cold beer or two in a social environment such as a party or get together with friends and family.

I don't use drugs, and have no interest in associating with people who do, however I will admit that I don't consider marijuana to be a "dangerous drug".

While I live in a city that is world famous for gambling, I don't gamble Myself.
I have always been very close to my family, and to my wife's family, and I am very close to my own sons, who someday I hope will have families of their own???
I love kids and do not consider them a "Deal Breaker". and I am comfortable around animals as well. I fact I have a couple of small dogs myself as pets...

As I am getting to the point in My life where there are fewer days ahead of Me than behind Me, I am starting to think more about the possibility of settling down and enjoying My golden years listening to sound of healthy and happy children at play.

The nature of My business requires that I have a lot of social contact, and also that I travel more than I would prefer, but the truth of the matter is that I prefer to spend My time at home.
I very much enjoy Cooking, Gardening, Wine Making, Photography, and playing guitar.

I am also very handy with tools and get a lot of pleasure and personal satisfaction out of repairing things around the house.

I enjoy golf, billiards, bowling, dancing.

I also enjoy competition shooting with small fire arms, riding motorcycles, flying small aircraft,and Martial Arts.

But My absolute most favorite recreational activity has got to be white water rafting.

Having said all of that I will close this short introduction by hoping first that you and your family are happy & well, and secondly that W/we will become very good and long term friends, and/or???

Looking forward to hearing from you soon and often.

Kisses & Hugs,
Leo [Last Name Taken Out]

Advice, people????

I suppose a real life person to hang out with would be more fun than an "internet girlfriend". He gets away with it because he's more physically mature than you are

You do realize, AE, that if this thing pans out into a full-out relationship, you're going to have to bring her on here to show the rest of us. If she can survive our crazy shenanigans, then you'll know for sure that she's a keeper.

Hey, who ever said we were crazy?

Technically, she said our shenanigans were crazy, not us personally. Then again, maybe we are.
All the more reason for AE to bring her here eventually

*applies ice to his burn* Thanks a lot, Shen

sorry.

not sorry

[IrishTiger]

Finished my first two college classes today!!! I don't know my final grade yet, but I'm just happy I survived.

[radgeek]

I had my first shift at Abuela's today. She is refusing to eat and had to be forced to speak English after noon. I know she will speak nothing but Spanish soon but we are trying to keep her speaking and understanding English as long as we can.
Now I have to stay healthy enough to keep being able to work with her. . .
