Just a bit more detail about Joe

Ok...like I said last night, he likes to argue with me, give me advice and is such a cuddly bear!! But I realized that I didn't really describe him very well at all.

Yes Joe is a tall, dark and brooding person. He really surprised me when I first met him last June. I remember helping my mom pack up while she was at work. Mom was moving to Maine and I was moving in with Scott and Tom. Joe called me or I called him, but either way we talked a bit on the phone. I had a hard time understanding him cuz he has that voice that mumbles and is kinda low, LOL! I guess he felt like something was wrong, so he went to his parent's house (which is the ONLY place he goes to get online) and got online to ask me if I was ok.

I blabbed about how I felt like I was not understanding him very well, he understood and talked a bit...wanting to take me out with him to a bar with his friends. I wasn't really feeling very "party" like. I really don't like crowds all the time, I really prefer being by myself or being with someone I really trust if I have to be in a crowd. I cried when Joe offered to take me out with him to the bar but I laughed when he suggested going out to McDonalds for lunch/dinner.

That was the first time we met. He came up from South St. Paul and drove up to Roseville (which is northern St. Paul) and picked me up at my place. First thing I thought when I saw his car was...GEEZ!!! That's black! It's a VW Jetta, a real nice one! A bit umm...dent up, LOL! If I remember correctly, someone had broke one of his side mirrors and he didn't want to pay an extra 300-400 bucks to replace it.

I get in the car and Joe is overwhelming. His presence is actually comforting, but kinda dark, LOL! He has that short hair from the 50's...slick and short, which I actually liked on him! He was dressed up in a button up shirt, jeans, boots. The button up shirt was kinda 50's like that showed off his tattoos very nicely. Again...he is a big person...I like that kind of bigness, it's SO hard to explain!!

Anyways...he drove me over to McDonalds which was only half a mile from my place at the time. We ordered our food and he actually paid for it which I thought was such a sweet gesture. Sat down and started chowing down. He mentioned to me either online or that very day that he had dated someone who was deaf. He never learned sign language (which I am RELIEVED he did not). But he did say that his former girlfriend would hit him if he turned away from her when talking. I warned him that I wouldn't do that but I would be just as annoying if I didn't get what he said at all, LOL!

We talked a bit at McDonalds. I really liked sitting there talking to him. I admit that I was a bit sad having to leave. I did regret not going with him to the party that he wanted to go to with his friends. I was just SO nervous back then. I never really put myself out there to go partying, bar-hopping, anything like that.

Joe eventually took me home and I thanked him, gave him a hug and ran back inside the house. I think I heard from him later in the day or the next day. But anyways...

During the summer, Joe kept asking me to go out with him and his friends and I kept saying that I didn't feel comfortable going with him. When I told Joe about Thor (my first sex partner), he flipped out. I mean, REALLY flipped out. He asked me exactly what did he do to me...if I was ok, how did I feel about what he did to me, did he protect me? Ay vey, we talked LONG about that!!

Then when I met Troy...Joe started to not talk to me very much but when he did, it always ended with me crying because he was NOT happy with me dating Troy...actually Troy and I never really dated, I think we were just fuck buddies. Yuck. Anyways...the end of July or the very beginning of August was the last time I talked to Joe for a bit. Around the end of August, Joe e-mails me and asks me a bunch of things like...is Troy still around (my response...NO), got a boyfriend and so on...

I was kinda surprised he did that out of the ordinary. So I asked him the same questions, got that girfriend? Want one? LOL! He finally invited me over to his place to watch a movie with him. It was MY first time ever to be at his place. I got there alright...he's in the basement...eh not really. It's the basement, but it looks like the first floor. Anyways...I get there, he's there by the door, hugs me before I come in. Asks me if I want a drink and I said I was fine. Then we sat down to watch the movie.

What was kinda weird about this was...I sat SO far away from him in the corner of the couch, he was on the other end. Then he eventually stretched out on the couch and I rested on his legs. At a funny or scary part ( I really don't remember the movie), he would move his feet and scare me, LOL! He has HUGE feet by the way, hehe!!

After two or three more nights like that, I finally slept over. WOW, did I ever feel so...sexy, LOL! I was REALLY nervous at first but eventually over a few more nights, I relaxed and cuddled up with him. But I was still kinda restrained. I wasn't really sure what to do. So I started imitating what he did to me or did some things to him that I wanted him to do to me. But what I really wanted was...REAL sex with him. I mean the man turned me on So much that I just wanted to climb on top of him and say, "TAKE me big man!!"

In October, he got his puppy, Daisy. She's adorable, very energetic and such. Joe started getting very busy at work and that when I texted him to ask him if he wanted me over, he would say he was busy, even if it was his night off. So I stopped talking to him.

Until January, which was when I e-mailed him asking him about that tattoo parlor. Didn't talk to him after that...then I think I e-mailed him and a bunch of other people a few months later telling them all something about me moving and such, but then it didn't work out. But then at the end of last may, I e-mailed everyone letting them know that I wouldn't be online for a few days cuz of moving and getting the internet hooked up and such. Joe actually e-mailed me and said good luck and mentioned that he was moving on the 25th to his own place. I was SHOCKED...he e-mailed me back and he's moving in to his own palce!!

He's 26 years old and...getting a house! It made me think, "Oh no...he's getting married!" I felt So sad and played it up by teasing him back in a response by saying...a house must mean that you're getting married or something, omg!!! LOL! He never responded to that at all, but he did want me to text him, talk to him. I was a bit nervous, I wasn't really sure what was going on. What did he want from me? I want to be MORE than his friend. But a few times I offered that and he denied it claiming that work was keeping him busy.

See, lemme explain his job. He's a piercing artist, yes. But the real job is the hours. For a week or a certain amount of days, he'd work from 7 am to 3 pm, then the next week, 3 PM to 11 PM and then 11 PM to 7 AM. And then after all those sets of weeks, he gets either 3 days to a whole week off. The only time I could see him was if it was a day off or the 7 to 3 shift.

He's really letting his job run his life. But I suppose he likes the company, the amount of money he makes and such. Ah, I don't know. But he seems to like his job eventhough he doesn't talk about it very much.

Another thing...he's SO in love with what I LOVE so much...classic cars!!! Yes, I LOVE classic cars, I may not know much about cars, but I probably can tell you what year the car is from and what major company produced it. Ah, lovely cars!! But Joe's favorite is the hot rods. I like them too, but ONLY if they are done correctly and are NOT that fricking outrangeous.

Plus when I'm over at his place and there's no movie, we'd watch shows on Discovery channel like American Choppers (Orange County Choppers), Jessie Jame's Monster Garage and a show about making classics from scratch. I actually ENJOY those shows, they don't bore me or make me wanna say to him...change the GOD DAMNED CHANNEL!! I would actually say....waittttt, I wanna seeeeee!!!

I think I'm gonna try and see if there's perhaps any chance that I could spend time with him at his new place. Ah, I don't know...I REALLY like him, but it's been a long time since I ever saw him in person. Ya know, the last time I saw him, he buzz cut his hair...he LOOKED SO HANDSOME! OMG....drooooooool!!! I loved it like that, just made him even more handsome! *sighhhh*

Ay vey, I sure devoted the whole thing to Joe!!

Ok...off to the post office to mail da package for Evie!!!! And get some books from the library, EEK! *runs off to the shower and skips out the door*
