Babe…?
Yes?
What if… I can’t actually be there for that long, this trip?
That’s okay… I had a feeling…
Oh?
Sigh… let me guess… you can only be here for a few days… then you gotta bounce.
Well… we need to do our fittings for the Met Gala…
I KNEW IT!!!
(LOLOLOLOL)… I’m sorry! I didn’t expect you to remember me towards the end of last year! I thought it would take longer! I thought maybe we wouldn’t have these conversations until 2026?! I was bracing myself to still chase you well into our 40s!
LOLOLOL… omg… what a torture…
Indeed…
So you’re only here for a few days — and I basically have zero free days — so we’re just gonna have time for a quick dinner. A quick breakfast. That’s about it?
(Nodding)…
What if I say that… I think we shouldn’t jump into bed this trip…
Did I just write that in another post recently?
I think you glossed over it, you didn’t really elaborate…
Okay…
I want it to be your decision as well.
HAHAHHAHHAAHA…
Do you see where I’m coming from with this decision?
I do…
I get it…
You’re adulting…
I am…
I don’t want to be that foolish 18 year old boy.
I want us to pace ourselves.
I want to meet your dog! I want to meet your parents! Or, at least, your Mum…
Well Mum is probably not back yet…
Which is why… not this trip… we’re not jumping into bed…
LOL… that’s okay…
It is?!
Yes — it’s all so sudden, anyway…
I can’t just suddenly have you here and then the next day be your fiancé?!
Oh no, you’re definitely my fiancé.
URGH?!?!!?
Yes, that’s 100% — I just wanna take our time with the physical stuff this time…
Okay…
Are you afraid that I’m gonna fall pregnant?!
LOL… actually I’m not worried about that…
You’re not?!
No!!! I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT PART.
I just don’t want to overwhelm you.
I have a feeling if I rush this, you’re going to feel overwhelmed… I don’t want you to feel overwhelmed in any way.
That’s also why I welcome the dog.
I think your dog is like your little Guardian — he’s going to warn you if the energies are “off” — even if you don’t say it to my face.
Oh… I see…
The dog is the barometer for how our dates are going…
LOL… maybe?!?!?!?!!
But he doesn’t know you…
But he knows you… and I want to see if the dog is reactive to me… that means that you’re still nervous about me…
(LOLOLOL) — He’s not always that accurate with my energies. I don’t even believe it.
I do…
I think dogs are a reflection of their owners…
What?!?! So because I have an insecure little dog then I’M insecure?!?!?!
LOL… it’s not like that!
He’s barking incessantly right now and I’m perfectly fine at home typing on this computer! He has a mind of his own! We are not connected like typical dog owners. He’s just a little rascal!!!
LOLOLOLOLOL… that’s okay, I wanna see it for myself!
I wanna meet him. I wanna hang out with you both, together.
What if my bros don’t bother showing up this trip? None of them can be bothered. They’re exhausted. They want to rest. It’s only me that wants to fly over for a few days.
Okay… yeah… I see what you mean…
Sure… so then we bring the dog to every date…
Yes…
Where can we go for dinner, then?! If there’s no restaurants? You can’t hang out at my place, it’s too messy.
You can bring the dog to my place for dinner.
Are you SURE?! He’s gonna pee EVERYWHERE.
That’s fine, I don’t care.
No like, he seriously can’t control his bladder, he’s an OLD DOG.
There’s gotta be dog friendly night time places we can go…
Okay yeah, I just did a quick google… some places… closes 10 pm… yeah, dinner and dog friendly…
(Chuckles)…
So no matter how busy you are, I’ll be able to see you at least once a day that I’m there. Whether breakfast or dinner.
Mmm… seems to be that way…
If there’s more time in between I’ll let you know…
More time?
Like if classes finish early? We got an early mark? Would you wanna come pick me up early?
Oh yes! Of course!
Yeah okay… so… just a few days…
Can you… rank the dog restaurants…?
You know what? Harbourtown — as a default — those restaurants open til late as well. Breakfast, lunch or dinner — dog friendly shopping centre…
LOL… okay… but any others?
Hmmm…
I do not feel like going into Surfers Paradise…
Okay… we can avoid it…
Here’s my ranking of other dog friendly options:
- Café Catalina (6:45 am — 10 pm)
- Double Barrel Kitchen and Bar (6:30 am — 2 pm)
- The Henchman (10 am — 10 pm/12 am on weekends)
- Dog and Parrot Tavern (10 am — 4 am)
- Ground n Sound (6 am — 2 pm/10 pm Fri, Sat)
That’s about it, my love…
Okay…
I don’t wanna drive down to Palm Beach or Burleigh… not if you’re only here for a few days.
(Nodding)…
Are you making notes?
Yes…. (smirk)…
And then there’s Harbour Town…
I know…
Are we really like, just going to hold hands and kiss? That’s it?!?!?!!
(Sigh)… I know it will be hard… but… I’d like to pace ourselves that way, yes…
(Hysterical giggling)… !!!!
Why is this funny?
It’s SO funny…………………………..
WHY!?!?!?!?!?!
Because — I have memories of TRAIN WRECK — and for you to just turn around and be like, “I wanna pace ourselves this time” — IT’S VERY, VERY FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ^0^
I’m not Trainwreck anymore.
I know…
I’m a mature man.
You are…!!! ^___^ ❤ ❤ ❤
