In the midst of The Horny Teen-ager madness this weekend, I also managed to go on this amazing sailing trip with this guy who I semi-dated (who know has a girlfriend) before Mr. Lawyer and a few of his friends. It was the most amazing thing I've ever done - we were out on the water for close to 6 hours - spray of the ocean, the cold wind, the thrill (I honestly never knew sailing could be so thrilling) and the group.
I was a little nervous to go along at first being that I only knew The Tall Hot Blonde (guy I dated before Mr. Lawyer) but showed up at the Pier anyway. I had finished an 18K race earlier in the day so was feeling a little tired but ready for another adventure. When I got there, it was just me and him. We chatted, caught up, and he gave me a tour of the boat which happened to be 50 years old!! Then, his friends started arriving until there were 12 of us - and two happened to be cute, single, and very eligible guys. I was a happy girl. There was also a couple on the boat, G and L, who were ridiculously nice and fun.
We sailed all around the bay together - from the Pier, around Alcatraz and back to the Piers to watch the big KFOG Kaboom concert. We didn't have an anchor so we literally just drifted around the general area where the concert was taking place, had some champagne and chatted. Then, we watched the fireworks from the water....and returned to land. By the time we got back to the docks, it was close too 11 pm and I was exhausted! One of the cute, single eligible guys, also known as The CEO, drove me home and asked for my number so he could take me out to dinner (sushi dinner to be exact). So we'll see.
The other guy, Mr. Ocean Beach is still a bit of a mystery. I wonder if I'll run into him again....or how I will run into him again....muah hahahaha muah hahahah...
I did some major retail therapy yesterday and realized break-ups can be good for one thing. I bought my very first size 24 pair of Seven jeans ever!!! I'm so excited. I know many people would wonder why the f* I care...and if you do, well just know that I'm a total girl about these things.
I had time to kill before meeting Mr. Analyst (the guy I met in NYC during my client's media dinner) and his friends frmo business school for drinks. We were meeting at the Westin on Market so I figured I'd go to Bloomie's since it was only a block away. Bad move. I spent way toooo much. But, maybe it was just what I needed.
Anyway, met up with Mr. Analyst and his buddy at the Westin bar, Ducca and had a couple of glasses of wine. Then, we went to Ozumo and had this amazing sushi dinner and sake. YUM!! We closed down the place talking....it was totally fun...and the best part was, I got out of there without spending a dime. When I glanced at the open bill (about $400), I thanked the lord that it wasn't my card going in there. :)
Tonight, I'm headed out with Mr. English boy for dinner but can't stay out late. I have a race in the morning and have to be up early and ready to run...
Tomorrow is also sailing day..we'll see how it all pans out.
