I was never one to have "perfect days" but today happen to be one of them.
Let's me take you back to the day I never thought I would ever have a "perfect day again".
Had a doctor's appointment in the early afternoon so I decided to work only half a day and take a half a day vacation. The week was a slow one for us or I would have gone to work, went to see my doc and then back to work. I was feeling really crappy for about a month and I couldn't shake it. I didn't want to go to the doctor, but my best friend insisted that I go because she told me "You look like what the cat dragged in from last week's trash". She will tell you like it is and if you don't like it, she will tell you to kiss her lily white ass in Macy's window.
The past year had been a living hell for me. I lost my job and a boyfriend that I was seeing for about 8 months. One morning I woke up to find a text message on my phone tell me that he had to "explore other love options" and wouldn't be seeing me anymore. Also asked me not to text or call him for any further explanation. I was beside myself and I was confused as why he would do such a fucked up thing to me after telling me a few weeks earlier that I was the best thing that ever happened to him. I found out later on that he was coming out of the closet and decided to tell everyone about his "male lover". He was a great lover and satisfied me in ways that no man ever did. Obviously he knew how to satisfy a man just as much. I thought it would have been a very long time to get over him, but I made my mind up after just two months that I wasn't going to let anyone, or any man get me down again.
The girls and I were always going to different places for dinner and entertainment and it kept my mind off Wayne. We happen to go to a great pub just a the border of New York and New Jersey and he turned out to be one of the greatest nights I have ever had in my life. I met a guy, a black guy who was the most wonderful and understanding as well as the most loving and caring man I have ever dated. We struck up a conversation as my friends and his friends were dancing and we happen to sit that one out and watched them dance.
Jared was laughing at his best friend as he took my best friend and started to these wild dance moves that I didn't even know that she knew how to do and she admitted later on to have learned them by watching the black entertainment network and enjoyed getting off on watching how the black men make dancing look like they were having sex on the dance floor.
I was calling out to my friend to "get down and get nasty" and Jared loved my comment and we began to talk. He asked me why I wasn't out there and I said I would have been the odd one out as they all were partnered up and that he wasn't dancing either. We talked for the next two songs and the "couples" enjoyed another wild "sexy dance" number and then a slower but still wild dance. I was more the ballad and love song kind of girl and Jared said he preferred the slow dances too. Everyone finished and we combined our two tables together and made a night of being with "new friends". Jared and I became fast friends as he asked me to dance a slow dance with him and I could tell that he was going to be someone special in my life. At the end of the dance he kissed me and thanked me for dancing with him.
One of the other girls drove that night so I didn't have my car, and Jared offered me a ride home when we would be ready to leave. The others decided to head out to the local diner for a little coffee and a small bite to eat as everyone worked up an appetite except for Jared and myself but we went along anyway. We sat next to each other and he held my hand and asked me if I would consider a date with him one night soon and I said I would. He was so polite and sensitive and I could tell that I was going spend sometime with him before the night was to come to an end.
