(11am) It had been a long time since I had been out drinking with a guy. (This weekend reminded me of why I prefer my women drinking buddies. (The advantages of women drinking buddies, to me, are:
1. I prefer the conversation and companionship that women provide.
2. I usually end up spending less money.
3. I am not as likely to get into trouble.
4. I don't usually get as much shit about wanting to go home and sleep when I get tired.
5. Women are far more pleasant to look at!
6. Women smell better.
7. I am not getting yelled at for not hustling women.
8. Women aren't desperate to find sex. (A woman can find it fairly easily here, and it isn’t a major undertaking for them.) (I think that is why they haven't been able to help in figuring out how to find it. (Tis always there looking for them, so it's just a matter of saying yes or no; rather than a major undertaking.))
9. I don't have to go looking for dancing partners. (I love to dance, but having to hustle dancing partners is often more work and rejection than I can handle. (I have pretty much given it up here.))
10. …
(One major draw back is that I am in lust with all my women friends. (I get horny around them; but it's nothing Rosie can't cure.))))
It did provide me with an opportunity to study what it is he does do. (I may not agree with his ways, but they are far more effective than what I do.) (The things I noticed were that:
1. He is funny and gets women to laugh.
2. Being successful with women has made him confident that women will find him desirable.
3. He talks about sex a lot. (He views the primary function of women to be sex, so that is about all he talks about with them.)
4. He is aggressive and establishes physical contact quickly.
5. His purpose in doing everything he does is aimed at getting laid (e.g., that is why we hit so many bars. (Go in, order a beer, check for unattached women, hustle any that are there, and then move on if it doesn't look promising.)))
He thought the song "All my rowdy friends have settled down" fit the weekend. (I have mellowed out a lot since the last time I partied with him.)
(Noon) Sex is one of the best parts of life, but so is the friendship and companionship of women. (Why do the two seem to be mutually exclusive?)
Maybe my feelings about Wallace have more to do with feeling sorry for myself than with guilt?
(8pm) I stopped at Flippers and bs'd with Erica again. (Nice.) (Tis also nice not having to eat my own food all the time. (Erica cooks up a great cheeseburger.))
(9pm) Samantha called and visited. (She says her and Leo are splitting the sheets again. (I wonder how long it will last this time?)) (What is it about spring that seems to lead to a lot of couples breaking up?)
