"Beginnings..."
------------------
Okay, so, like, I got to the airport about 20 minutes before his scheduled arrival, and he was already there waitin' on me! Lol! We recognized each other quickly, honed in, and did the official International Airport Greetin' (a.k.a., "handshake"), got 'is luggage in muh car, 'n headed off to "home"!
Alex is cool---a li'l more talkative than I'd imagined, li'l taller 'n slimmer than I'd pictured (he looks a li'l differn't online than in person, lol), and a good British guy. I just need to get 'im outta his shell a li'l more, he's a li'l "shy-ish" 'bout me callin' people 'n havin' him talk to 'em or leave a message, lol.
(my sister, a friend, etc.)
We're havin' a good ol' time...we walked around my neighborhood to help stretch out his poor six-hour-plane-ridden legs 'n muscles. And so far his southern US diet has been hot chocolate (lol). But tomorrow sees the
Cheese Grits Casserole!!
If ya've seen the FR episode "A Cave of One's Own", it's remindin' me o' me and muh temporary roomie---I'm quite animated, LOVE green, always eatin', 'n Alex is laid-back, has no fav'rite "colour" (happy, Alex?), and professes to "not eat much". Heh. What a weird combo two foreigners can make! lol
He' sittin' behind me right now---lol, this is great! "Real time Muppet pals"! We need to market these!
Really!
We do!
Okay, he's lookin' at this now, so I'm gonna go---besides, my toilet's still makin' noise, I think he may have messed it up...*gulp*...
