Beach, Bathing Suit, Boy
Beach: totally spent the afternoon at the beach. It was warm but not too warm, which is good since I HATE the heat. It was super pretty too. The beach got quite crowded fairly quickly, which was a bit of a bummer, but we stayed hunkered down on our blanket, plugged in to some tunes and soaked up the rays.
Speaking of rays: I'm burned. Worse than I thought I was. And through sunscreen. Apparently SPF60 isn't enough. Ugh.
Bathing Suit: My friend and I stopped on our way home from the beach to look for new bathing suits. I only have two and wanted another one just to have some variety. She wanted one because her and her bf are going to Jamaica in a few weeks. In cruising the store I noticed they had bikinis (not tankinis) in plus sizes. In thinking outloud I wondered if there really were plus size girls that were comfortable enough to wear an actual bikini. I mean, I have one one piece and a tankini. Today I wore the tankini. Its cute, and pretty comfortable. And it covers. My friend told me I should get a bikini. I'm like "yeah, no way dude." She seems to think I'm not as big as I think I am and should try. After much deliberation, and her suggesting a sheer cover up to wear over it, I bought the darn thing. Its cute. I like the suit I just don't know if I'll ever wear it unless its under a jogging suit! Her argument is that the sheer cover up thing will ease me into it. She also said that it shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks about how I look in whatever I'm wearing, if I'm comfortable then go for it. So I bought it. And now we'll see.
Boy: Oh boy. One of the maintenance guys have a flirty thing going on at work. Its fun. I enjoy it.
Here's a little background so what I'm about to tell you will make more sense:
I had to call him at 11:30 one night last week as the elevators crapped out on us. He came in and did whatever he needed to do. The next day I saw him he told me not to call him again because it was his day off this time (he was kidding, if I needed him I could call him). I didn't have to call him, so he got to enjoy his day off. I joked to the person I was working with that I should call him and just say "whatchya doing?", just to bug him. But I didn't.
Today my phone rings as I'm walking out the door to go to the beach. I vaguely recognize the number but didn't answer it (I don't answer unless I know the number) I check the message and all I hear is "whatchya doin?". I knew immediately who it was.
So we go to the beach and do our thing. I text a few of the people I work with to see who gave out my number. He had to get it from work since we don't know any of the same people outside of work. So far no one has fessed up to giving it out. I'm not mad that he has it, I just want to know who gave it to him.
I get home and the phone rings again. I didn't make it to the phone since it was upstairs and I was down. I go check the message and its him. The message said: "hey, its me. Hope you got the joke earlier. It was the only thing that brought a smile to my face today. I had a really bad day."
I did totally get the joke. It kinda made me laugh when I heard it.
I just don't know where he's going with this. He's called me at work before to check on something and we've chatted a bit, but he's never called me at home before. The flirty thing at work is fun. But I don't quite know where its going now.
#1- he's attached
#2- he's at least 15 years my senior
I guess I'll see what he says when I see him at work tomorrow.
