I went on a date tonight and I actually enjoyed it. He was pretty cute and fun to be around. We met for coffee and talked for about 3 hours and then decided to grab some dinner and go to a movie. We held hands throughout most of the movie. He was really comfortable and sweet. I am planning on seeing him again, although maybe not until next week. I guess we’ll see where that goes.

I woke up this morning at 5:30 am after sleeping for about 3 hours. I rode my exercise bike and then went to a meditation center I’d never been to before. I had a strange experience while there. I was quite tired and sort of nodding off during the meditation when all of a sudden I see this figure in my mind’s eye. I instinctively knew it was a she before she turned around. When she did I got a look at her face, but it was completely devoid of any facial features – no nose, eyes, or mouth, just a blank slate. She was wearing a red and gold silk patterned dress of some sort and turned to me, extending her hand as if to say “welcome.” It all happened very quickly and was over before I knew it. I’ve never had something like that happen to me before. It was kind of cool, but a bit unsettling, too. I take it as a sign I should probably go back to that center and find out more about what’s going on there. A welcome like that would be foolish to discount.
