Ok so on Sunday a.m. P. and I were passed out--well, I was, P. had woken up at 8am due to his internal alarm clock. But I was woken up by my mom calling me and then ANOTHER text message from that trumpet player saying, "U R Hot!" Oh, that's real suave and mature. I ignored it, of course. P. wanted to hang out and go to IHOP but I couldn't b/c I just had too much shit to do and I also needed some major Adela time since I had had NONE in I don't even know how long! DA was scheduled to come by around 2pm so he could help me get the 2nd bedroom and dining room in order for J.'s return on Monday to continue the painting, etc. I had to do my nails, laundry, hang up clothes, read my mail, tidy up downstairs, get the latest pic's off my camera, etc. Etc. ETC.!!!!!!!!!!! And try to read my book if I had time, which of course I didn't. I didn't even have time to do my damn nails.
Anyway, DA came over later and we ran to the grocery store to get trash bags and chocolate so we could get through the project. He was being really funny all day long; he is totally the quiet type but he has a great sense of humor just under the surface. We got a lot done although it was difficult for me at first to be spending all that time in the room, but DA's emotional support and humor made it all right. We filled 4 garbage bags of trash (things I was sure S's daughter would not use/miss) and I also gave DA a couple of S's nicer button-down shirts since S was stupid enough to leave them behind. We didn't have a lot of time b/c we were to meet Tito J at 6pm for Thai dinner, but we got most of the room taken care of. We went to Thai dinner and it was deeeee-licious! We ordered a ton of food and had leftovers, of course.
Back at my house after dinner the trumpet player kept texting me and I still was not responding! DA was getting annoyed and we took a nasty X-rated picture to send back to him which I ended up not having the balls to send, but it was a hilarious thought! DA ended up going home that night late but we made plans to do our Monday night Three Stooges viewing. I realized I hadn't had pizza in months and so DA said we should have that on Monday. Meanwhile Stefano had also called me but I couldn't call him back as I was busy w/DA. (Glad I was in the bathroom when the "Let's Get It On" ringtone came on so DA didn't hear it!) I felt a little bad about not being able to call Stefano back, but oh well! (I texted him 1st thing Monday a.m.)
So now it's time to get ready for New Year's! I am, as always, swamped until this weekend. I am so glad I decided to bring in the New Year w/Stefano, although it would've been DA until DA found out he had to work! DA spent the night last night and we were sad thinking it was gonna be our last time to see each other until 2010. But today we decided to hang out at his house tomorrow afternoon after I get done w/Job #2 and before he has to go to work. Tonight is dinner w/J.Fu so we can catch up, and then tomorrow night Stefano wanted to hang out. Today we were Facebook chatting and I said I wanted to go out to see the kickass klassic kuntry band I had seen before Thanksgiving w/Rozzy, and Stefano agreed! I am so happy!!! Then Thursday is the big day of fun and merriment! Stefano has to be at the private party at 6 in order to setup to play from 7-11 but I don't think I want to be there that early so I'll probably meet him there. It's a little weird thinking that we'll be very close to DA since the party is in the same nearby town/Houston suburb that DA lives/works in! But DA and I also made plans to go see a matinee on Saturday before he has to go to work. So no matter what I'll still have plenty of time for my fun menfolks!

Whew!!!
What can I say, but... GOOD TIMES, MANE. It has been a whirlwind of nonstop activity these past few days and it has all been fun... fun... FUN! Well, except for getting PO'd at DA on Thursday b/c he is basically only 24 and makes the kind of unsophisticated immature mistakes that 24-yo's tend to make. Lucky for him I am trying to be more laid back and appreciative of the fact that he is so young. But things are going really great w/me and DA and also me and Stefano and today I decided to bring in the New Year w/Stefano. It was going to be DA but DA just got hired on full-time at the restaurant where he waits on the weekends, so the good news is that he will now be making mo' $ but the bad news is that he has to work New Year's Eve. And although I will miss him I know I am going to be having a KICKASS time w/Stefano at his friends' private party where there will be tons of booze, food, great music, and lots and lots and LOTS of kisses and hugs from Stefano the whole night long!!!
So where the hell did I leave off? Oh, Wednesday me and DA went to the House of Blues and I had to give DA a quick lesson in two-stepping before we left the house. The drinks were incredibly overpriced there but we had drank egg nog before leaving and then I had 2 Southern Comforts on the rocks and I was feeling pretty, pretty, pretty good! The bands were great but we didn't stay long b/c we wanted to get home and drink some more and have sexy time with each other. But unfortunately when we got home I began drinking coconut rum and drunk dialing my cousin and breaking the bottom off my crystal wine glass and eventually passing out. Gotta love the holidays!!!
The next morning we slept in and tried the warming Astroglide and then I had to get ready for patrol. I got mad at DA b/c I told him not to read my text messages when he was playing w/my phone b/c "You will not like what you see." He read them anyway and saw sexy hot mushy stuff from Stefano and what pissed me off more than anything was that I had TRUSTED DA to honor my request and not read my fucking text messages. We left on a bad note and I didn't even hug him or kiss him b/c he also did not apologize like I kept waiting for. But after he left he did call me and left messages saying he was sorry and that he doesn't know what he was thinking and he was really just curious to see what Stefano said to me. DA had invited me to his house on Saturday to meet his family and I had accepted and even wanted to go but now I wasn't even sure I wanted to keep seeing DA due to my hypersensitivity to trust issues. Anyway, patrol was busy but mostly bullshit calls all day, and I decided to accept DA's apology after awhile and lots of texts on the subject and discussing the situation w/Brandone and just decided to get over it--as long as it doesn't happen again.
Meanwhile--my ex M. kept calling me all day wanting me to go to Christmas service with him that night at our old church, and then he just came out and told me he's not completely over me yet and is jealous that I'm seeing Stefano and that he was also jealous when I married someone else! OMG. I couldn't believe the conversation we were having and I felt nothing when he was telling me all that. Ain't it funny how time slips away... Like I told our mutual friend, my drummer George when he told me a couple weeks ago M. was not over me: "When you take bitches for granted, bitches pack up their shit and leave." Snap!
So after patrol I raced home, changed and showered and got to Stefano's house toot suite where he greeted me with Scotch and chocolate! Then he gave me a back massage w/warmed up baby oil and I returned the favor and then we took a bubble bath together! See, now that's a sophisticated gent! And I just LOVE and ADORE sleeping with him b/c he holds me tight and constantly kisses me and doesn't ever seem to stop and we all know what an affection/attention junkie I am. I hated to leave so early on Friday but I had to get home and make my 2 batches of sausage balls and wrap presents still.
Friday morning was so cold and I was moving real slow and running late as always but I picked up li'l bro and we headed down to see the fam. Fortunately it was a slow casual kind of day anyway and actually pretty pleasant. I was just glad li'l bro was w/me and I wasn't alone like I was on Thanksgiving. (Incidentally--LDB has a new girlfriend which is why he did not contact me about sneaking away for drinks again. Good for him! He needs someone to love and I'm glad he got it.) I had brought my flask and me and li'l bro spiked our drinks; later my uncle brought out the Crown Royal which we also enjoyed. Before heading back to Houston we stopped by and saw our mom and grandfather.
After dropping off li'l bro I raced home to change out of my slacks into a cute girly outfit and got to Stefano's house again (oh man--it's so fucking awesome driving only 90 seconds to see him!) and we got in his Lexus and drove to the sushi restaurant. I was so NOT hungry but we got large hot sakes and I tried 2 pieces of sushi and we just talked and talked and had a great time. He later said I looked so good we almost didn't make it to the restaurant. He lays it on pretty thick all the time but I am just hoping it's sincere and if it truly is, then I love it! Back at his place we broke out the scotch and tried to watch a movie but that didn't really happen. The next morning he let me sleep in a little and before I left made me a bagel w/lox and cream cheese and a cup of tea which is what I always drink in the mornings at his house. What a man!
I raced home (see how my life goes?) to change clothes and get to the park to meet Tito J for our run we had planned on doing to pay penance for eating too much on Christmas. He wasn't even awake when I was on my way so I did 3 laps before he even got there. We did a few more laps and then I had to split to get to DA's house in time. I raced to the store to get 2 bottles of wine to bring and then raced home to shower and change into an appropriate "Meet Your Boyfriend's Family for the 1st Time" outfit. You know, cute but not sexy, classy but fun since they also know I'm 13 years older than DA and I also wanted to look as young as possible! I wore a black scoopneck velvet top, tight dark blue jeans, cowboy boots, and I had blow-dried my hair very straight. DA lives in a very nice house on a cul-de-sac w/his dad, stepmom and stepbrother and his parents were really, really friendly and nice to me! We hung out in DA's room while his dad was frying the turkey and then I suggested to DA that we not be so antisocial and get out there and mingle a little. We got some drinks and soon people started showing up: their family friend--a drunk, funny desperate Housewife type--and DA's stepsister, her husband, and then his grandparents. His grandmother is actually Mexican and she very clearly adored me and kept saying how pretty I was and later pulled DA to the side and said that of all his girlfriends I was her favorite one she's ever met!
The turkey and everything was delicious and I also had to sample all 4 desserts, forcing DA to help me w/that project. Then everyone opened Christmas presents and DA had some for me and even his parents had got me a couple of things, which was SOOOOO sweet!!! DA got me 2 books and I got him 2 books but he forgot to inscribe my books and I made him do it right then and there. He wrote in one, "To Adela, the love of my life!" He said that his whole family really liked me and I was like, "Of course they do! Everyone likes me!" Later DA's teenage stepbrother showed up too and he was pretty amusing. The whole day was really fun and enjoyable and I had a great time. DA had to leave eventually to go to work and I gave everyone hugs goodbye and they said they hope I come back and I said I will come back anytime they invite me to.
So I headed down south to pick up my mom for the Ruben Ramos concert which I was so excited about! And even P. had said he'd probably swing by, too! Unfortunately my mom and I got there 2 1/2 hours before the damn band was scheduled to play at 11pm! Holy shit. But I could not get any advance information from the club on what time the damn band played, so whatever. I spent the time chatting w/my mom, drinking Crown and Diet Coke, and downloading ringtones for my 2 men so I can ID them when they call me: DA got "Play that Funky Music White Boy" and Stefano got "Let's Get it On." I also called the trumpet player for Ruben Ramos since he's a Facebook friend and he had sent me a message awhile back saying he wanted to meet me. But the phone call was kind of strange and abrupt and I was like, whatever. But then he sent me a text saying he was with his girlfriend! Like I care!
Incredibly, I ran into my girlfriend from years ago, Diana who I have totally lost track of and she was THERE!!!!!!!!!!! Unbelievable. And I showed her the # I had for her in my cell phone and it's still good! So who knew! Then P. showed up like he said he would and we danced a couple of songs and then I just wanted to watch the band, and they were KILLER! Awesome fucking band! And I felt so ethnic being around my people! After the band took a break my mom got picked up by my stepdad and I decided to go say a quick hi to the trumpet player, who had been dancing w/his girlfriend, so I did, just a quick one. Then P. and I decided to leave and he wanted to go to my place since he lives in BFE and his wife is out of town, so we did and I made him listen to the Holmes Brothers and we had a couple drinks and smoked cigars and watched the Rhythm Country and Blues video and then I put in Y Tu Mama Tambien and then I passed out in the chair and he passed out on the couch. Gotta love the holidays!!!
More later, I gotta get to the Target. Job #1 is totally dead. There were like 3 cars in my parking lot this morning. Love it!
So where the hell did I leave off? Oh, Wednesday me and DA went to the House of Blues and I had to give DA a quick lesson in two-stepping before we left the house.

What a Great Week
This has been the funnest week and it's only Wednesday! Thanks to my 2 menfolks who I adore. On Monday my headache didn't go away for a long time and then I just all of a sudden felt fatigued and drained. So DA suggested he come over with his Three Stooges DVD set and we just chill and cuddle, which we did and it was sooooo great. I was a little embarrassed b/c I was laughing so hard but goddamn, I fucking LOVE the Stooges! Then we went to bed and tried to watch the 2nd Harold and Kumar movie but of course we got distracted by each other. Fun times, baby!
Yesterday I got ALL my Xmas shopping done in an hour and a half on my lunch break. I went to 1/2 Price Books which is next door to Spec's Liquor. DA had told me he always gets people books for Xmas and I was inspired. So I got my uncle, aunt, cousin's baby and my dad books. I got my cousin some note cards w/her last name initial on them. And I got DA 2 books as well. Then next door at Spec's I got myself some egg nog and my dad's girlfriend a tiny Mexican liquor cake in a cute tin. Hey--it's the thought that counts and I put plenty thought into all this stuff.
Last night after Job #2 I picked up li'l bro and we met the cousins for a holiday cousin tea at the tea house we'd met at a few months ago. It was so nice to catch up with them, though I have been seeing my cousin Townes a lot these past few months. After tea it was time for me to head downtown to see Stefano's band open up for the blues jam that my friend A. usually heads up. When I got there there was pretty much nobody there, maybe just 5 other people, for real! But it was nice to see Stefano play/sing since it's been months and months since I've seen him do either. In fact the last time was in February when he and I played together at a benefit at the Big Easy. He was so glad to see me and we hugged and kissed and he bought me a drink, etc. And a couple of his friends showed up and I got introduced to them and one of them stayed near me all night and we chatted it up. Stefano had to get back up to play guitar another time or 2 and A. showed up and it was nice to see him too.
Unfortunately at one point I almost got into a bar fight with this asshole who was getting in the face of my new friend, a guy who was kind of running the jam and had to pull this drunk girl off the stage when she got up there for some stupid reason. The couple had wandered into the bar from the Rockets game after it let out down the street and I had actually danced with the drunk girl just to be cute and silly. But when my friend tried to help her off the stage she stumbled and fell and although my friend tried to help her up the drunk bitch's boyfriend got all up in my friend's face and I had already had 2 drinks and I was having none of that. I got in between them and started yelling at the guy and I had a candy cane in my mouth and it fell out; meanwhile poor Stefano was up onstage playing and he was having to watch all this craziness. He later told me he thought he was going to have to jump off and come get involved! I remember saying to the guy, "You wanna fight someone, fight me!" (Hilarious! But I meant it at the time.) My friend and Stefano's bandmate pulled me away and made me go outside to calm down. Later the guy apologized to my friend and the drunk bitch apologized for her boyfriend.
When Stefano came offstage I apologized for his having to see my temper flare up; but he knew I was just trying to keep the peace and I reminded him I *am* a Texas peace officer! Then he pulled me to the back of the club onto a couch and we made out furiously. Stefano said he is attracted to tough, strong women b/c his mom and sister are like that. I asked if they were ballbreakers like me and he said yes! We made out so long his friend said he was glad to see us finally come up for air when we did after awhile. Stefano was really sexy up onstage playing his big guitar; I couldn't help it.
We made big plans! We're gonna go see my beloved Keb Mo in February at the House of Blues, and also Stefano's gonna take me to the symphony in January! Also we're gonna hang out this Thursday night after I get off patrol and he's also going to take me out for sushi on Friday night after I'm done with Xmas festivities at my aunt's house.
Meanwhile I am taking DA to the House of Blues tonight, as my friend gave me free tickets to see Two Tons of Steel. And DA said we should make the Three Stooges viewing a regular Monday night event, to which I agreed. His DVD set has 25 DVD's, so this project should take us several months! I am soooo looking forward to sleeping in with him tomorrow, though I will have to start getting ready to go on patrol at noon-ish. I adore my menfolks!

Ow My Achin Head
Have I already titled a blog post that before? Can't remember, don't care anyway. So this weekend was wild but no one should be surprised about that. I don't even remember some of it. I do know I had rehearsal w/the guys on Thursday night and we went back to the icehouse and drank beers and all danced with the same chick. Leo was trying to have a serious conversation w/me and kept making me look him in the eye and later when we left and he hugged me goodbye he rubbed my ass, the wise guy. I went over to Stefano's house on Friday night and I knew I had to have the talk with him first thing about how I am not being exclusive and am "seeing" other people during this transitional period of my life. He was quite understanding and cool about it and said that he agreed w/me when I said I wanted to keep spending time with him, that he feels the same way about me. I was soooo relieved! So we drank 15-year old scotch and I ate several kinds of chocolate he'd gotten me and we listened to Tom Waits and played strip poker and then had sex like crazed weasels. In the morning he made breakfast for me (scrambled egg whites/sausage) and he'd also bought me my own toothbrush to keep at his place and he is really, really scoring MAJOR adoration and affection points with me!
I had to run myself out of town and got a late start due to the morning w/Stefano but head out I did finally and it was a long drive to Ft. Worth. But it was relaxing and Stefano had lent me a Gram Parsons CD and I got addicted to the song "She" and listened to it about 50 times in a row, at least. Boof's bday party was at her parents house, who I had not seen in YEARS and it was a wonderful festive event with all kinds of ridiculously delicious food and I was actually starving for once and I grubbed seriously. Then we started drinking champagne and the football game came on and I amused myself by taking lots of pictures. Also texting Stefano and DA repeatedly!
We had discussed going out on the town after the party but in the end that didn't work out for a variety of reasons and truthfully I was exhausted anyway from the week and not getting any sleep hardly and also that long ass drive so Boof, T. and I just went back to their place and crashed. We'd made plans in the a.m. to go eat at Waffle House but 1. I couldn't wake up early enough to do it and 2. I was not even hungry in the slightest due to eating all that food at the party! I headed back to Houston an hour off schedule but drove 80mph and got to the studio only a little bit late.
Recording went mostly well. I have FINALLY learned Stevie Ray Vaughan's "Rude Mood", one of the trickiest songs ever! I am actually pretty proud of myself. I think we mostly laid down everything we needed to. It has been years since I've been in a recording studio and it was fun. Even if I was tired and sleep-deprived, and Leo was hungover.
Last night when I got home DA came over and we commenced with the drinking and hanging out and making out and having sex like crazed weasels. Unfortunately today I have a highly unusual coconut rum headache, which has never happened, I don't think. Tonight DA and I will go to an anarchist bookstore event (li'l bro said last night he was so proud of me for going to this event!) and then home to my house to play Scrabble, probably!

Pick Up Artist?
L. said that I should research how to be a pick up artist for tips on juggling several men at once. I did google the term and everything seems to relate to men's perspectives! My only other real influence is Samantha on SATC. But I'll keep looking. So far things are working out. Spent time w/DA on Sunday, Monday, and last nite and Stefano will be tomorrow night when DA is working at his waiter job. DA keeps telling me he loves me and everytime he does my heart melts, though I am still not willing to say it back yet. Cuz truthfully while I am very fond of him I don't love him currently. We had a good time last night tho'; he came over after I got home from Job#2 and he wanted to take me out to eat before we went to see the Mighty Orq play but I of course was having none of that since I am still working on being as thin as possible and all these holiday parties with all this food is wreaking havoc with my "slimagineering" to quote Tito J. So he made mac and cheese at my house and I settled in with a glass of coconut rum in my new tumblers I won at Job #1's White Elephant gift party yesterday. We then headed out to the Orq and Stefano had told me about these frozen drinks they have at this particular venue, but I couldn't remember which drink he recommended so I had a frozen Cuba Libre! DA paid for it which was a good thing b/c I kept joking around that although he's low on funds these days (and is looking for a better-paying waiter job) that if I had to pay for my own drinks he would not be getting laid later!
Speaking of which, I guess I'm being a little reckless in that regard. DA didn't use a condom last nite and Stefano has never used one with me (then again, I'm not sure they make condoms that big). My friends are scolding me about this crazy behavior and Tito J. even gave me a bunch of condoms and lube (but the condoms he gave me are too small for both my guys!). Then again JR and I never used them, and I didn't use them with anyone else I've brought home recently either. CRAZY!!! I know.
Rehearsal tonite, the last one before we record the CD on Sunday. Jesus, I really wish I had time to practice some cool bass lines on my own but I simply do NOT. Not with all this dating and rehearsing w/the band and work and then I'm headed to DFW on Saturday for Boof's 40th birthday party celebration. It's gonna suck having to get up early on Sunday in order to get back to Houston by 1pm to meet the guys at the studio. DA says he wants to come over on Sunday night which I said was fine. I invited him to come to this anarchist bookstore thing with me on Monday night, which is one of the things I love about him, that he's into books/reading. Hell, he's an English major at UH, which is awesome! Also that he's available to come to these things w/me during the week so I don't have to go alone! Tuesday night will be a holiday cousin tea, with my li'l bro and our 2 cousins. Wednesday night DA has said he'll come over and cook for me and he'll bring some boxes and we can tackle the 2nd bedroom so that J. can continue work asap. This was actually his idea even though it's something I've been meaning to do, and I told him I will totally appreciate the help but more importantly, the emotional support. S's baby mama actually called me on Tues. morning to ask for an update on my divorce situation, but I told her I had none. She asked me to please not throw any of her daughter's stuff out and I said I would never, ever do that. I asked about her daughter, how she was doing in school and everything, and she said that she's still not paying attention in class and is still in counseling. SIGH. I still care... obviously, huh? Shit.
Honestly though, I have been the happiest lately that I've been in years. My 2 men are constantly after me to spend time with them and are both constantly telling/texting me how "hot" and "gorgeous" and "amazing" I look/am and this is music to my ears since S never told me that--literally. They both say they're great cooks and both want to cook for me, again something I haven't had in years! Stefano will be first on Saturday morning before I leave town, and DA of course will be next Wednesday! I am having so much fun with the attention and the cherishing, and they are both sooo awesome to sleep (slumber) with, as they both are into holding me all night long, kissing my face, hair, shoulders, etc. And of course all of this incredible sex is some of the best exercise I could ask for, as well as being the only exercise that fits into my schedule! There is nothing stressful about dating either of them, we're all just having fun and letting the good times roll. I am also totally enjoying playing in the band and it's so much fun being a rock star again, having people fawn over you and want to meet you, etc. I am enjoying not thinking about the future and taking a break from being Super Extreme Planner Adela. That was a concept Brandone suggested to me, to not make ANY PLANS until an arbitrary date, say, March 1, and though it was a mind-blowing concept I decided it was just what I needed to try and he was so right.

One Guy+Another Guy=Happy Adela
Not at the same time, however! Anyway, so last nite I took DA to the holiday party w/me and we had a nice time. However I had to drink 3 whiskey/Diet Cokes in order to loosen up a little. It was kinda embarrassing since we are both sporting hiccy's too. I took a couple of cute pic's of us, including one of us kissing. I guess I'll put them both up on Facebook although it's a gamble since Stefano might see it and he probably doesn't know yet that I'm seeing someone else. He hasn't asked me outright and I haven't brought it up, so I'll just cross that bridge when it comes a'askin'.
After the party DA and I went back to my place and drank some more and smoked a little and decided to get in bed and watch Fargo since the lad had never seen it. But so far we cannot get through any movies we attempt to watch. After a couple of hours DA told me that he loves me. I was so touched, although he said he wanted to tell me last week when I met him for lunch and also he was afraid telling me would make me mad! (Where do people get this shit?) Anyway, I told him that while I cannot say it back yet, I do really really like him and I care for him and there's things I love about him. He was fine with all that. And although he has been saying he's not the jealous type he did say last night that he's starting to get a little jealous of Stefano. He says the worst part is thinking of someone else kissing on me.
Speaking of Stefano, I was really hoping he'd ask me to hang out on Friday night and today he did Facebook chat me to ask, yay!!! He invited me over for wine, chocolate, and all the hugs and kisses I can stand and also promised to cook breakfast for me on Saturday before I leave for DFW. See--Stefano really pampers me and takes care of me, whereas DA is not in the position to do so. In fact, I shared my "8 Dateable Items" list with Stefano on Sunday morning and Stefano has all but ONE of them! (He's a musician, of course.) Of those items DA has all but TWO of them. But combined they've got all EIGHT, heh heh! Which is why I keep both of them around!!! And combined they are both making me really happy and I am totally having an awesome time with both of them.

Blooz, Booze, and Sexy Time
Lotta that going on in Adela land! So here was my weekend, in a nutshell: 1 Brave Combo concert, 2 gigs, 3 hot and heavy dates with 2 men, and 1 patrol shift. Adds up to lotsa good God almighty times!
I guess I have officially become a player. At the gig on Friday was my 48yo boyfriend, S.G., or as I call him "Stefano". He got to meet lots of my friends and my li'l bro, as li'l bro and I arrived at the gig fresh from The Dosey Doe in The Woodlands where we went to spend a little time with Brave Combo and our mother since it was her birthday weekend. Earlier that day my little boyfriend, the 24yo, D.A., had driven all the way near my Job #1 to meet me for lunch as he was dying to see me, the poor lad! So I had him meet me at La Mad and while there I bought my mom a small tart as she loves that shit. D.A. has grown a cute little goatee per my request as I think it makes him look a little older and it makes him look like the writer that he is. I do think he's adorable, and told me on Friday that he is starting to fall for me--his words.
I wasn't sure how to act around Stefano at my gig but he was very attentive and clearly wanted me to be aware he was there for me, so that helped gauge my attention and interest. To be honest I was nervous due to 2 of my most incredible bass playing friends there, including Rozzy and my other dear friend, Q. And Stefano sat right up front to watch us play which also made me nervous. I played mostly ok except I did make a couple obvious mistakes. But I think everyone knew I was nervous, and afterwards got lots of compliments, as always, but men are never 100% honest with me so that's to be expected. Even my ex, M. was there and I actually DID call him on the way home from the gig b/c I was confident he would be mostly truthful with me since he has no agenda with me and never will again! He did in fact tell me lots of nice things about my playing. I had so many people there to see me, it was awesome! L. came and brought her new man, also R. and T. However my dad didn't show and I had even put him on the door... damn him.
I met Stefano at my place so he could help me unload my amp and we had a drink of the scotch that D.A. had brought over, but I didn't want to hang out at my place b/c the bed was unmade, the house was a little untidy, and there were D.A.'s condoms all over the place! So we went to Stefano's house which is literally a 90-second drive away, and commenced with getting to know one another much better. He really is very sexy and cute and gentlemanly and apparently really really really likes me.
Of course he had to drive me back home at a somewhat decent hour the next morning b/c I had to go on patrol by 1400 hrs. Patrol was mostly uneventful except the Sgt. paired me with an FTO who I'd never ridden with before and he was very funny and we had a good time yukking it up all day. But it was drizzly and cold which meant the turds stayed indoors to smoke their crack. I got off around 2130 and went home to change and go to Stefano's house. We listened to music, drank wine, I smoked a cigar, and then yadda yadda yadda. The next morning he got up early to listen to our local blues radio programs and read the NY Times--what a nice change of pace to be dating a cultured, informed, intelligent man for once! I stayed in bed to sleep some more, but he came and very affectionately woke me later. He took me to breakfast at a very cool, very delicious local bagel shop and I am starting to feel more relaxed around him though to be honest I am still pretty shy around both my guys, not sure why. Back at his place he even gave me the Times and his Esquire magazine to take home with me--love it!!!
When I got home I told D.A. to meet me at my place so we could go to my 4pm gig at some biker place together. He came over and I immediately put him to work as my roadie, heh heh. The biker gig was outside in the cold which I was afraid of, but Leo had given me no specifics. There were several musician friends I saw there. This was D.A.'s 1st time to see me play, and he said we did great. I kinda wanted to hang out after we played to see my other friends' bands play but it was cold, I was tired, and I wanted to go home and cuddle, which is what we did. Also I'd had 2 beers at the gig b/c that's all there was to drink there and back home we shared some nachos and I drank some passion fruit rum, delish! D.A. later made himself a whiskey and coke before yadda yadda yadda. (Which I have only done one time before--sexy time with 2 guys in the same day!). The subject of Stefano came up and I told D.A. that Stefano has nothing to do with D.A. or how I feel about him, which is so true. D.A. told me he's been telling his dad how much he cares about me and that his dad said we should all do dinner someday, and I am totally fine with that!
So tonight is the annual holiday party for the High-spanic Health Coalition and I invited D.A. to come with me. We'll hang out tonight and then on Weds. we'll go see our friend play a gig. I'll have Tues. and Thurs. to myself since those are rehearsal nights, and Thurs. my band mates want to go out drinking again, which we did last Thurs. and I got so incredibly wasted but it was way fun. Friday and Saturday is when D.A. has his waiter job so I am hoping Stefano wants to hang out again on Friday (I'll be in Dallas on Saturday). Stefano gets up very early during the week so he can go to the gym and work early so workweek hanging with him is probably not realistic due to my crazy ass schedule. Thus, so far it seems this scheduling time with my menfolk thing will work out since they both have different schedules and hopefully there won't be too many conflicts where I'll have to choose between them!

Good Times, Mane
Last night was a hoot. DA came over and brought me the bottle of Johnny Walker Red he'd promised me, since he'd gone to the casino in Lake Charles w/his dad on Sunday and won $200. We had time for one drink and to relax a little before meeting Tito J at Karoake. It was later than planned b/c Tito J was delayed getting out of San Antonio; consequently our other boring librarian girlfriends did not show--big fuckin' surprise. But later Janel came and that was awesome since I hadn't seen her in forever. Tito J and I sang a couple and so did DA! Yay for him. It was a late night and after DA and I got back to my place and drank a little more it was an even later night for us. Ya know, he's only 24 but he's got some skills, I tell ya! (Including #5 on my infamous list!)
This morning he was saying he couldn't believe he won't be able to see me until Monday and sent me a text today saying he misses me. Awwww. I like the kid; I'm not gaga though. He's cute and even Tito J said so a couple of times. I love that he's an English major and reads. It's been soooo long since I dated someone who actually reads!!! He says he loves my honesty, that it's refreshing. Yeah, I bet! B/c I was telling him how I have a date this weekend w/SG and DA said that's fine b/c he knows I am going through a transitional phase right now and deserve to have as much fun as I want; also he's not the jealous kind. He says he just enjoys hanging out w/me, that he admires me and I inspire him and motivate him to do better in life. I told him I like hanging out w/him too and we can continue to do so. He's so sweet; he kisses me while I'm sleeping, holds me all the time, caresses, all that wonderful stuff.
Rehearsal tonight and I apparently have so many friends/music peeps coming to the gig tomorrow I am kinda nervous. Esp. having to play in front of Rozz and SG, who keeps saying he knows what a rockin' bass player I am and not to worry so much. He Facebook chatted today to tell me he can't wait to see me tomorrow and I can't wait to see him either. We have date plans on Sat. night after I get done w/my patrol shift but I'm hoping he wants to hang after the gig tomorrow too! I really want to get some SG action if you know what I mean. I didn't get any this past weekend when he was over b/c Aunt Flo was visiting but SG has some incredible qualities, or at least one BIG ONE in particular that I can't wait to familiarize myself with! Thank God my mother is no longer reading this blog!!!

He says he just enjoys hanging out w/me, that he admires me and I inspire him and motivate him to do better in life. I told him I like hanging out w/him too and we can continue to do so. He's so sweet; he kisses me while I'm sleeping, holds me all the time, caresses, all that wonderful stuff.
Rehearsal tonight and I apparently have so many friends/music peeps coming to the gig tomorrow I am kinda nervous. Esp. having to play in front of Rozz and SG, who keeps saying he knows what a rockin' bass player I am and not to worry so much. He Facebook chatted today to tell me he can't wait to see me tomorrow and I can't wait to see him either. We have date plans on Sat. night after I get done w/my patrol shift but I'm hoping he wants to hang after the gig tomorrow too! I really want to get some SG action if you know what I mean. I didn't get any this past weekend when he was over b/c Aunt Flo was visiting but SG has some incredible qualities, or at least one BIG ONE in particular that I can't wait to familiarize myself with! Thank God my mother is no longer reading this blog!!!

It's Raining Men
At least, it feels like that a little bit! D.A. stayed over last night and we had a rockin' good time. We watched the old horror movie "The Fog", ate popcorn, drank a bunch of booze, and then... Today we're both covered in hiccy's. He wanted to come over again tonight but I have rehearsal this evening and after that I kinda want to enjoy some Adela time with myself. Besides he'll be over again tomorrow, as we'll join Tito J for some Karoake good times. Tito J is interviewing at my library on Thursday for a job! I need Tito J back home and yes, I am being totally selfish about that.
So then I heard from S.G. today and he asked me to hang out on Saturday night. He's also coming to the gig on Friday night and D.A. told me last night he could not get off work for my gig, to my actual relief! B/c I really want to get some S.G. action this weekend! I just hope the hiccy's wear off by Friday b/c I don't want S.G. to think I'm some kind of fast girl. Which I am! But he doesn't need to know that. I still would like to be treated like a lady by these gentlemen callers. Which is a tough balancing act, b/c D.A. said he hoped he has a future with me and that he hopes I don't have sex with anyone else ("I can't promise that," I told him--100% honesty!) and Jesus, I hope he doesn't fall for me but I kinda think he is already. But if I tell him look, I just want to be fuck-buddies and pals then will he act differently, treat me not so tenderly, not care about me anymore? Should I even not worry/care about this?
JR texted me yesterday "Hey!:)" and I immediately texted back "I thought you told me to quit texting you so how is it I keep hearing from you?" and he responded "I just wanted to see how you were doing Adela, that's all!:)" and I did not respond at all to that. Sounds suspiciously manipulative and I don't trust him. If only he knew how many new dudes I've hung out with after him!
I am beginning to think my eating habits are perhaps altered forever. I actually ate a damn SALAD today--from McDonald's. I rarely eat salads and never salads from McDonald's. But I still don't have any real consistent interest in eating, I just knew I had to eat something so I'd have energy for Job #2 and rehearsal this evening. Yesterday I ate a frozen bagel at work and then on the way to Job #2 I got a $1 double cheeseburger from Burger King and ate it with only 1/2 the bun. Then last night I ate just a tiny bit of popcorn and drank a bunch of box wine. And that is a typical day of eating for me--seriously. I was actually pretty hungry this morning so I got an Egg McMuffin from McD's and then ate the salad this afternoon, and that's all I'll eat today! The other typical thing I'll do is get the 3-strip meal from KFC that comes w/potato wedges and a biscuit--and it'll take me the entire day to eat it and that's all I'll eat that day. This has been going on since August. My only concern, since I am enjoying the weight staying off, is that I do need to eat more fruits/vegetables. Just not sure when/where I can sneak them in.
I do want to start running again and have decided to do Memorial Park as soon as I have the time, which I don't anytime soon. But that means at least I will be forced to eat bananas on days I run. I just have no patience for eating anymore. I'd rather be doing other stuff--hanging out w/gentlemen callers, listening to and playing music, planning my next road trips, going out and drinking, etc.

Well Obviously the Good Times Is Rollin'
I have been way busy these past few days w/my gentlemen callers! Thurs. night is when D.A. came over and we got seriously drunk and he spent the night. He came back over Friday night so he could accompany me to the Continental Club for Big Sam's Funky Nation which was KILLER as always! He left on Saturday early afternoon to go watch football w/his dad and I got ready for my "date" that evening with my guitarist friend/neighbor, S.G. (Which D.A. knew about, since I am all about 100% honesty and everyone knows it!) S.G. took me to a local neighborhood dive bar and we drank several Crown and Cokes, after which time I invited him to come with me to Dan's to see Tommy Castro. The place was packed and M.B. was there, back reunited w/his girlfriend, and A. was there of course. Rozzy's band was opening up too--bonus! S.G. and I watched the show from right in front of the stage and he brought me a couple glasses of wine and soon he went in for the kiss and we were making out on the dance floor. The band was incredible, and S.C. texted me while I was there telling me I would totally dig the bass player which I totally did!
So when the show was over we headed back to our neighborhood and S.G. lives maybe 1/2 mile from me so he wanted to show me his house, which was really nice and clean and decorated nice and everything! We made out awhile there and then I said I wanted to show him my place so we hopped over here and made out a lot more and then passed out. He stayed the night and this morning he took me out for breakfast. I've known S.G. for years and always thought he was cute although he is a guitarist so is probably a bit of a player, but at least I'm aware of that! What's funny is that I never thought the evening would end like that b/c I never gave him much thought before, but he really is cute and sweet and fun and seems to enjoy taking care of me, so who knows?
So D.A. went out of town overnight w/his dad and keeps texting/calling me. He wants to come over tomorrow night, wants to come make me dinner later on in the week, wants me to come see his house in Sugar Land, wants to come to my gig on Friday night! And S.G. said he'd come to my gig on Friday night as well!!! Holy sheep shit, I am not sure how to handle this!!! I think I won't worry about it for the time being b/c I just can't deal with it. I'm trying to have a sense of humor about it though.
Tonight B.B. invited me to the Bach society concert which was a wonderful thing to go to and it was beautiful and classy and just such a nice change of pace from all the crazy things I usually do. Afterwards he had a gift card to Pappadeux so we went there and had a very nice meal, including wine and dessert. I hadn't been eating hardly anything all weekend (b/c I've been lounging around in bed with menfolk and drinking a lot) and dropped another couple pounds but tonight I ate a whole lot. I have to admit, I'm having fun and that's what I need to be doing. Although I ran into my neighbor this evening in the courtyard and he told me that J.R. had called him last week to ask if I was dating anyone new!!! Oh good lord!

Crazy Holiday Times Cont.
Whoo, before I get back into my tales of the weekend I should give a shout out to last night which was indeed crazy large! I didn't even get home until almost 5am today and subsequently am running on fumes with just over 2 hrs. sleep. I still have Job #2 this evening and rehearsal after that. I am out of my damn mind, but I think we established that a long time ago. But after rehearsal I think I will have no choice but to get my crazy ass home and seriously collapse and will try to force myself to go to sleep waaaaay earlier than usual tonight. I just hope I'm able.
But anyway, so last night I'd made previous plans w/my little drummer cop friend M.B. (the one I played with in a band c. 10 yrs. ago when he was 15 years old) to go see our friend's killer band at the Big Easy. Actually this is the same band that I just opened up for at my gig a couple weeks ago. Monday is "Tequila Mondays" at the Big E and M.B. was all depressed b/c his girlfriend just moved out yesterday! I thought I was going to be depressed b/c I had the monthly sheriff meeting last night and was in no mood to be in the same room as S, however S did not show and Mudflap said he didn't know where he was. So after we all went to eat dinner (I just had chips/queso but then our secretary forced me to eat one of her tacos) I ran out to meet M.B. and he was bummed b/c the scene was dead. Well duh, it was a Monday night after all! I wasn't surprised but he was hoping to find some women, heh heh.
We started drinking tequila immediately and M.B. had a friend there with him, another 24-year old friend of his that he's known since high school, D.A. He was kinda quiet but kinda cute and the 3 of us just hung together all night long. I tried to coax them to come with me to see LDB's other band play at the Continental but M.B. really wanted to see our friend's band play, so we just stayed there. I danced with both the boys. Nice slow dance w/D.A.! He said he wanted to hang out with me more which I thought was sweet! M.B. kept flirting with me and then D.A. started doing the same and I told them both they were drunk. I had 4 tequila shots which I barely felt b/c they were spread out over 3 hours and I'd eaten a good amount that evening and my alcohol tolerance is admittedly kinda high these days! I had a small amount of beer later but I was fine. M.B. had like 8 tequila shots and D.A. had one but stuck w/the beer all night.
We decided to go to the House of Guys and M.B. called his fellow officer friend, the one we had gone to eat with the last time M.B. and I went out. D.A. started laying it on a little thick, asking if I'd remember him today, putting his arm around my back, trying to share his hamburger with me, asking if he could call me today, etc. It was really quite funny and when D.A. left to smoke a cig the other guys were cracking up over it. M.B. forced me to share my "8 Dateable Qualities" list with him and he was pointing out all the items he had on the list and insisting that I should date him. Wise ass! Anyway, I am actually hoping D.A. calls/texts me today. He says he plays a little guitar and I told him he MUST see The Last Waltz! Meaning, he needs to come to my house to see it!
Ok so picking up on the holiday weekend where I left off. So I left town on Friday evening around 6:30 for the drive to Burnet, TX. (BTW, JR texted me 3 times that morning! Aaargh! Now under the guise of looking for a pair of his jeans, also to offer to give me my sheriff belt buckle back! OMG. Aggravated sigh.) I took my time on the drive, blasted my tunes, enjoyed the Texas countryside and my freedom--it was awesome. G. and B. met me down the country road from G.'s house and guided me in since it was late by then and dark. G. lives in a nice house on the lake w/his mom and aunt and it was really pretty great, with their big wooden deck out back that overlooks the lake. We drank--a lot--out there and smoked (them cigs, me cigars) and stayed up late and G. and I got so giddy his mom had to come out and ask us to keep it down! There was also a humongous Rottweiler in the house named Duke that was scaring me until he was finally let out of his cage and forced to become friends with me. Later on Duke and I danced to Los Lobos out on the deck. For real!
I slept in G.'s room on his fabulous comfy bed. I tried to get him to sleep w/me (we've shared many a bed together on many a road trip over the years) but I passed out drunk and he split soon after I'm sure. I slept until almost noon on Sat. morning and really, really needed to! B. had made a delicious breakfast and soon after we got ready to head to Austin for the day. We went in B.'s big comfy pickup truck and the drive took about an hour but we were in no hurry. B. had promised me nothing but R&R that weekend and that is what I got! In Austin I had to find a Spec's so I could buy some sweet-tea flavored vodka and we finally found one on the damn freeway. We also drove a little bit around the city which was a great feeling, as I have always adored Austin except for the traffic and the yuppies. G. had never visited the Stevie Ray Vaughan statue on the lake so we did that and took pic's. Then we went to the Continental Club to have a drink before going next door to the tattoo parlor for G.
I had decided to tattoo 2 blue eighth-notes on the inside of my right ring finger. I thought that would be unobtrusive enough to not get noticed very often, esp. while on duty by any Sgt. or higher-up! G. wanted a spider web on his elbow (at first I had joked that I would get the spider on my elbow!) There was an awesome band playing at the CC and I had Southern Comfort on the rocks for a change of pace. Finally we went next door. But they said my idea wouldn't work!!! Apparently you have to use a thick-ass needle for the palm of the hand area due to the skin type and tiny delicate eighth-notes would not be possible on a finger. Damn! I tried to think of alternate areas to place them while G. was getting worked on and even discussed the situation long-distance w/Tito J. I came very close to the behind the ear area but B. made me go to the Continental to drink with him and then I was just over it. Glad now!!!
After G. was done we headed back to the house and G. had to drive b/c B. was drunk by then. I sat in the back of the truck and began drinking my sweet tea vodka and was feeling pretty groovy by the time we got home! SC even texted me at one point and said he was drinking "devil rum" wherever the hell he was. G.'s mom had made ribs for us so we ate and drank some more and then settled in to watch movies. I made G. lie on the big chair next to me but passed out pretty soon, at which point B. and G. made me go to bed!
Sunday I slept late again... bliss... and their mom made us a killer country breakfast! I ate a lot, which was probably a good thing for me to do, but B. ended up tossing his up outside near our cars! Crazy bitch can't hold his liquor! We watched a little football but then I had to head out around 2 in order to make it to the Horn to see the Houston Funk Factory play that night at 7:30. We made plans to visit again for New Year's, perhaps do the Marfa trip at that time too. I miss G. so much sometimes!!!
The drive home was a little frustrating, with lots of traffic and rain and bleh. I blasted my tunes though and enjoyed myself regardless. Got home barely in time to throw on a cute outfit, do my face/makeup and meet my girlfriend K. at the Horn! (Rozz had flaked, damn him.) The joint was really really nice and it was great to see it renovated, as I used to play the jams there and also a gig or 2. While I was waiting for K. to show up I UNBELIEVABLY got a text from the state trooper that said "So when do I see you again"!!! Is he FOR REAL??? After his manners??? When K. showed up I caught her up to speed on that and she was like, "Uh-UH!" I began drinking my Rieslings on an empty stomach and after an hour I actually did text back, "I am out all the time! I'm out right now!" and he texted back, "Cool. Well u have my number if u need anything." I can't think of anything I could possibly need from him. He blew it, man.
The band was KILLER!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy shit! My friend from high school on trombone killed it--actually he used to play and tour with many jazz legends so no surprise there. K. and I noticed how cute the sax player is, and I had heard his name before and I also decided I had to meet him. Another musician I know showed up to watch the show and it was nice to see him. K. left during the 2nd set and I stayed to finish it out. Then I introduced myself to the bass player who I have been seeing play since I was a teenager (he's also an alum of my high school) and then the cute sax player and they were both so incredibly nice! I told K. we MUST return next week and I texted Rozz that he also MUST join me next week. Last night I told M.B. about it too and he agreed to accompany me as well!
