Saturdays

Went by for about 15 minutes this morning... Wore normal clothes, wore my hear down and wore make up... all for nothing! The dude was not there, so we know that his Saturday routine does not include going to the dog park at 11:30 AM. I did run into Bobby's friend Todd and his dog Rocky, cutest boxer ever! And Elaine got her wish, there was a pug there, Guiness, and I'm surprised she didn't steal it... how come it took me 2 seconds to learn the pug's name, but I still after various attempts have no idea what "mini-Moby without a tail's" name is. That will be his name in future updates until the true name is finally revealed. Tomorrow is book club, so my Sunday night visit might not work... GRRR! I guess until Monday it is.

Postponed

As I was getting ready to take a shower and make myself presentable for the dog park, but not too much, mind you, since our first conversation involved me saying I was covered in dirt from playing with the dogs and the dude telling me that he learned quick not to wear nice clothes... (needless to say, I'm not gonna be that girl that wears a dress to the dog park), ANYWAY, Jeff called to ask if I wanted to play tennis... this was a tough decision... I had already jogged my insane 20 minutes just an hour earlier, and this would get in the way of the dog park visit, but I still decided to go... good thing too, it started to pour around 6:20 (which is about when I would've gone to spot the man) so all's well that ends well. Thinking about going tomorrow morning, but I don't know his Saturday schedule so it might be a waste of time. (Crap, it's supposed to be about Moby right? Oh well... I guess I'm going.)

Day 2

Couldn't get back to the dog park til Sunday night, didn't see his red car there. I guess he doesn't come every day. Since it technically should be about Moby, I still went in. What do you know, he's there... maybe all my memories from day 1 were off cuz he now drives a grey car, or maybe he has more than one. Elaine told me to check for a ring, I didn't... oops! I talked to him and said hi to his dog, Jack. Strike 2, his dog is not Jack, it's something else and he said it twice and I still have no idea what his name is. He left soon after, so I still know nothing about this guy. For all I know, he could be gay.

Goals for next time:

1) Learn dog's name.

2) Check for ring.

3) Actually talk about more than dogs...

Day 1

Hadn't walked Moby in a while and I felt guilty, so I took him to the dog park. Normally he would run to the entrance and try to get out, but not this day. This day he wanted to play (not lots, but more than ever). And suddenly it occurs to me, wait a minute, this would be a great place to meet a dude. I see this one guy, pretty good looking, dressed nicely from work... Must have a good job, I thought. And then, he lights up. Cross him off the list. Then this other guy shows up, he's talking to everyone, knows all the dogs, he's trying to get his dog to play tug of war with other dogs. I like him. Must come back...
