This is my future husband.

Love is in the air...

Ok this is going to be a long story...but it's totally worth it.

So Saturday my roommates and I did this thing called Santa Monica Challenge, kind of Amazing Race-esque. Afterwards we were at a bar having some beers celebrating our victory and this cute guy comes up with a backpack and is telling our neighboring table his story. I overhear he's hitchhiking down the coast and I'm intrigued. So I motion for him to come over because I'm just drunk enough to have some balls. Liquid Courage. So he fills us in that he's backpacked a lot and he's from CO. We talk quite a bit. And I am sold! So we had to go in for our costume challenge and I see he's thinking about leaving so I run out and he's already writing down his information so I say "Oh good. I was going to tell you I wanted your information....because...I need a partner for Amazing Race and you'd be perfect!" (I'm sorry Eric...you're still my number one pick...I was just under pressure and needed an excuse)

CUT TO: We start texting just back and forth getting to know each other stuff. So here's some of the conversations.

him: I wish we got to spend some time other on this trip, u seem like a really fun girl
me: Yeah I was really surprised how much we have in common! You seem like a lot of fun too. But  between both our travels I have a feeling it'll happen.
him: very true! This was my first trip to Cali and as far as I can tell it won't be my last.
me: Good! I wouldn't mind seeing Colorado either. I was supposed to go to Denver on my way out but plans changed so I still really want to go.
him: Anytime!

So...naturally I sent that to my roommates so they can enjoy with me.

Then later this conversation happens:

him:Otherwise I would have certainly made my way back to hollywood and tried to get a date with a movie star;)
me: Haha I haven't met any movie stars yet but I'll keep my eye out for on good for you ;)

So...naturally I sent that to my roommate.

Apple Nerd moment: pre-iOs5 when you forwarded text messages it would switch to the person you were forwarding the conversation to and start a different conversation. Now, when you forward something from one conversation it stays in that conversation.

So I forward this last text conversation to my roommates then said "love is in the air..."...to the hitchhiker.

INSTANTLY I'M LIKE ABORT ABORT ABORT!!!!

so I think quick on my feet and this is how the conversation ended:

me: haha omg that was not meant for you.
me: lol my roommate is on a first date.
him: (TOTALLY CALLING MY BLUFF) haha sure sure lea.
him: I'm flattered though;)
him: that was actually really funny. I'm on a greyhound bus, i needed that!!
me: haha I am absolutely dying laughing. Lol glad you enjoyed that.
him: glad your enjoying it too. This is great I'm already laughing out loud to myself and like 15 hrs left. These people think I'm nuts.
him: Phones gonna die now though. Glad you got that off your chest. must have been a burden. lol
me: haha you suck. ok have a good trip. text me when you're charged. or not. since we're not in love. lol
him: Thanks babe, love you! ;)
me: :)

GAY-borhood

Ok, so I live in WeHo which we like to refer to as the Gayborhood. Let me just say, there is no point in getting ready for the day here if I intend on not leaving WeHo. I have never gotten less male attention at bars. If I don't go to a straight bar soon, I'm going to be begging for a closeted boy to find out he's gay with me. Dear Chastity.
