Catching up with Hot IT Guy waffle (Part 1 - it got long!)

Well, things continued to build with Hot IT Guy quite rapidly through the week after my last post about him, there were long, flirty Facebook conversations pretty much daily and I drunk dialled him Friday night. Which was really nice and we ended up talking for over 2 hours over various phone calls. I tried to force him to come and see me (after I'd left Dippy Chick and new friend who I've yet to think of a name for), he kept saying he didn't want to take advantage of my drunkness - I assured him that he wouldn't be and he eventually got up and got dressed to come and see me.


Only to get locked inside his own fucking house!! Which sounds like an excuse if ever there was one doesn't it? I believe him though, from his reaction on the phone when he couldn't find his keys and that he said that he wouldn't bother making up an excuse, he would have just said no.


I told him far too much about how much I like him - I think he said something about me being on the phone to him because there were no boys out and I told him there were lots of boys out, I just didn't like any of them as much I like him.

Though, we did meet some very hot boys from Worcester on a stag do (well Dippy Chick met them, while I was outside on the phone to Hot IT Guy for 50 minutes) and one of them kissed me a bit - just a sneck really. Every single one of them was hot though! They made us go out the next day - yup made us, we took a lot of convincing obviously.

Turned out to be a very good thing for me that they... cough... made us go out on Saturday too because Hot IT Guy was out too (I had told him on the phone that I would be so I am choosing to believe that, that's why he went out). We saw him for a while in one pub we were in and we had a few drinks with him and his friends but then we moved on and they stayed there, but we arranged to meet up again later on.

I was quite proud of our self restraint, we lasted all of, oooh, 3 minutes after he got to the club before kissing. His friend (who I'm going to call Gingerbeard) was wasted though so he had to take care of him quite a bit. I went to chat to his mate at one point - he works upstairs as well, so I know him too* - and Hot IT Guy came over so I got a bit distracted. Then got, "I know you really like Hot IT Guy!" Bless him, he seemed to think that was a major feat of deduction, everyone knows I really like Hot IT Guy.

I got a bit of a "talk" then though. He told me that it may seem like Hot IT Guy was avoiding me - so he hadn't seen the kissing then - but he's just been through a messy break up and his head is fucked - which is information I already knew, though I didn't think the break up was that messy - and he's not ready for a heavy relationship. I don't want a heavy relationship either! Heavy sounds very scary! I told Hot IT Guy about getting the talk and he said apparently he was getting told to go for it! Ooh Gingerbeard called AC a, "very strange girl," said that he's known her for years but still thinks she's very strange. I liked hearing that.

Gingerbeard kept catching me and Hot IT Guy kissing after that though and I felt like we were going to get into trouble because Hot IT Guy didn't tell me that Gingerbeard had been telling him to go for it until later. We had some verrry nice kissing but he had to leave early to take Gingerbeard home.

I stayed for about another hour or so after that but I'd had a bit of a stomach ache and I was bored then so I made my excuses and went to catch a taxi home, even though I was supposed to be staying with Dippy Chick. I phoned Hot IT Guy when I left but he was still sorting out Gingerbeard and asked if he could call me back in about 20 minutes. I toyed with the idea of hanging around a bit longer but then a drunk person started talking to me so I jumped in a taxi and headed home**.

Only for him to phone me and invite me round to his place when I was about 5-10 minutes from home. Bugger! Really made me wish I hadn't left so early. I told him off for not telling me to wait in town, he thought he had by telling me he'd call back in 20 minutes. Errrm, no! He told me he'd, "almost forgotten what an amazing kisser [I am]." Which made me grin like an idiot.

Though I think my favourite part of the conversation was him saying, "I really like you NG." Of course, he chose the precise moment when the taxi driver had to ask me which road to take so my response to Hot IT Guy was, "top road please." And then my signal went so we got cut off! He phoned straight back and acted all indignant and accused me of hanging up on him. I told him I hadn't but also murmured something about getting in there before the but, but he either didn't hear that or chose to ignore it.

We ended up chatting on the phone until half 4 in the morning. It was lovely. He kept telling me to come back and I really wished I could, we talked a bit naughty and I was sooo horny and turned on. He said some really nice things about me and we chatted quite a lot about the chemistry between us. He told me I have a sexy voice, which I really don't, so I said I don't and that I sound about 6 on the phone. He laughed and said, "oh, please never say that again!" Which made me giggle. I've since heard myself on a recording and I don't sound 6, but I do sound quite butch!

The subject of getting up to no good at work came up over the course of this conversation and I told him that I'd thought about dragging him into the lift several times and he told me I should. I actually have a thing about lifts and don't really like going in them, which I've told him before so when I said that to him I think he felt special because I'd, "face [my] phobia for [him.]" We basically agreed that on Monday it would happen. But we also talked about meeting up on Sunday when I went to collect my car from Dippy Chick's and that didn't happen.

Giddy!

I just kissed Hot IT Guy in the lift at work!

Loooong post about Hot IT Guy

Disclaimer: This got very long and will be interesting to no one but me. Sorry!

The lack of mojo seems to have continued, which is annoying because there are lots of things that have been happening that I wish I'd talked about at the time. I'll write about the Hot IT Guy related stuff first as that's what's occupying the most head space. It feels like a lot has happened in a short space of time but it probably hasn't, think I'll break my waffle up into days though.

Last Monday
I saw him outside the office when I was leaving work and we chatted for quite a while in a semi-flirty way. He asked me if I was going to re-add him on Facebook or if he was going to stay defriended forever. I told him I'd been considering it and he demanded that I do.


I had flats on, which is a rarity for me, and he came and stood really close to me to tower over me. That has no relevance to anything and isn't particularly interesting but I just like remembering it.

He showed me that he's been given a security fob and we joked about trust and abusing the fob, he said he's a good boy now. Which is one of the reasons I was a little miffed when Dippy Chick told me that he was single now. Why call himself a good boy if there's no reason to be good anymore? He asked me if I was out on Friday though and it all just felt flirty and made me all smiley.


It was that night that Dippy Chick spoke to him on Facebook and found out that he's now single. She text me first of all telling me that she had goss and somehow I knew it was going to be about Hot IT Guy. Probably because of a combination of the flirty feel to our chats lately and just how he's seemed lately, I wasn't completely surprised to find out things were over with AC*.


Tuesday
I saw him outside the office again and he mentioned me adding him on Facebook again and I told him I wouldn't, that he should add me if he wanted to be my friend because I added him last time. He said he'd been online waiting for me to add him the night before. Then he said that he'd had a nice chat with Dippy Chick and he gave me a sort of almost expectant look, knowing full well that she would have told me instantly that he was now single. I just acted innocent, as if she hadn't even mentioned it.

Thursday
The Facebook thing had become a bit of a battle of wills, but I cheated a little bit. I got Monkey (the office stuffed toy, that is on Facebook) to suggest to him that he add me as a friend. He did, with the little comment, "Very clever." Which amused me. So now we're friends and I can Facebook stalk to my little heart's content.

Thursday night, I got a text from Dippy Chick asking me if I was awake because she had good goss, the she called me. It turned out that she'd been talking to AC on Facebook chat to get more information on what was going on with her and Hot IT Guy. AC confirmed that she had indeed broken up with Hot IT Guy, because they were arguing a lot and she's going to University in September. She said that she's left the Facebook relationship status as it is because she's not ready for all the questions she'll get when people see.

Friday
I was very lucky with my timing and got to see him to chat to three times. The first time he tried to get me to touch his hair! But I didn't for some reason. A man I adore gives me an opportunity to run my fingers through his hair and I don't?! Why?! Oh well.

He was supposed to be going out that night but his plans changed and he driving up to visit his mum straight after work instead. I was disappointed but the flirtation still made me grin like an idiot all day.

He greeted me and Dippy Chick as Legs and Arse in the middle of town, that was embarrassing - I feel very uncomfortable with the Arse thing, because I really don't think my bum is anything special. Don't get me wrong, I am one of those rare females who like their bum but I just don't think it's particularly remarkable. Dippy Chick's legs are remarkable because they're slim and very long. My bum's just a decent bum, not a special bum.

We chatted about how Dippy Chick and I keep drunkenly harassing Camp Straight Friend and Hot IT Guy requested a drunk phone call. He'd already mentioned texting him a couple of times recently, saying, "you've got my number" and I'd told him each time that I'd deleted it. Dippy Chick made me dig it out from my online phone records though so we didn't call or text Camp Straight Friend again - as if she needed to twist my arm. Though, I did notice he's added his mobile number to Facebook and I couldn't help but wonder if that was for my benefit.

The 5 o'clock chat was my favourite. It was really rather flirty and I made him blush! He looked adorable with a pink flush to his cheeks. He made a naughty comment about getting up to no good in lifts, which, if the ideas weren't already there, would have put some rather smutty thoughts in my head. I invited him to join us in our office for pre-night out drinks in future and he said that sounded good. I toddled back off to Laugh Bitch, with a big smile.

The night out was more than a tad messed up. I called Hot IT Guy fairly early on, as soon as I was drunk really, but his signal was shite so we didn't get to chat much because the connection kept going. I did get an explanation text with a x on the end though, which made me smile because I'm 12.

I then spent a chunk of the night drinking with his ex-girlfriend! Which was very weird! What was probably weirder was that I had a really good time and Dippy Chick had to force me to leave and go to a different pub. I really liked her friends though and have complete girl crush on one of them. I didn't think AC really liked me and a couple of times and Laugh Bitch caught my eye with a worried look on his face, scared I was going to blow up and say something I think. I didn't though, and she added me as a friend on Facebook the next day so she can't have hated me.

When Dippy Chick forced me to move on I called Hot IT Guy again and we chatted for about half an hour. He was sober and I just yammered and yammered, he kept chuckling away at me and said he wished I was texting some of the things I was saying so he'd have the evidence. I can't really remember all that much of what I said to him, which is probably for the best. Oh I did keep using a pet name I've given him though! *Cringe* It amused him. I didn't want to finish the phone call when I did but Dippy Chick shouted at me until I hung up - I'd been sat outside the pub chatting to him. I tried to get away to call him back but by the time I managed it, he'd gone to sleep.

Weekend
After I confirmed him as a Facebook friend, he started a poke war, which led to a few flirty texts - I went bowling with Dippy Chick and the Blonde Chick from this post (yep, we're friends now, weird I know!) and got a bit tipsy, which makes me brave and naughty. He told me that "Naughty Neurotic Girl is the best kind!" and that if he drunk dialled me** I'd "regret answering those calls" and when I said said that I'm quite open minded so he'd probably have to try quite hard to freak me out with naughtiness he said, "Ooh a challenge... fun!" So I might be getting a smutty drunk phone call at some point. Though I doubt it, he's just a tease.


Monday
I was expecting him to try and embarrass me when I saw him, but he didn't. I did get a lovely cheeky smile though. And in the evening we had a bit of a Facebook chat on Facebook - while he was talking to Dippy Chick as well and she fished about me and him. He told her that he likes me but it's complicated and then changed the subject to her and a boy upstairs, who I will have to think of a name for.

He wasn't really that talkative to me at first and I couldn't really think of what to say because I was overthinking everything. I did get some good stuff out of the chat in the end though. Like a whole load of innuendo about blow jobs because I said something was a mouthful. Then when I alluded to enjoying them he said I was, "every mans perfect woman." And apparently the liking to give was just, "one reason amongst many." I said I wouldn't be tacky and ask what they were (really dieing to obviously) and he asked, "do you not have a mirror in your house or something?"


Tuesday
I had a bit of a stupid strop for no actual reason, getting all huffy about the "it's complicated" part of what he'd said to Dippy Chick. Completely failing to see what might be complicated about getting dumped by your girlfriend of 4 or 5 years and how your head just might be a tad messy when it came to women and liking someone else. As far as I could see it, it was less complicated than it's ever been. I was being a prat basically.

I also noticed he has clown feet! They turn out! I text him to tell him this of course and mused that I'm lucky to have escaped being alone with him without getting skinned alive.


Wednesday
I bought my Mum Take That tickets for Christmas and we went to see them on Wednesday night. On the train on the way home, I checked Facebook because I'm addicted at the moment and had a message from Dippy Chick telling me that I needed to be on there because Hot IT Guy was tipsy and chatting. She said he was asking loads about me and had said he liked me about 4 times.

I text her straight away asking what he'd been asking about me and she said he'd been saying he liked me quite a lot and he kept asking what I say about him but she wouldn't tell him. She told him to drunk dial me and he'd thought it was a good idea but then chickened out and said, "You do it!" to her. When she said, "Why would I do that?" He apparently said, "Why wouldn't you? She's gorgeous!" Which unsurprisingly turned me into the bloody Cheshire Cat all the way home from Cardiff.

I've pumped her for more information since and she said that he likes me but his head is a bit too messed up to be thinking about women at the moment. Though he made it very, very clear that I'm his favourite.

The daft thing is, if he asked me what I say about him or what I think of him, I'd tell him. I probably already have!


Thursday
Dippy Chick went out and I didn't go with her because I thought it was just going to be a couple of drinks with a friend of hers and by the time I got there it would have been time for me to catch the train home, but it turned out to be a proper night out, so it would have been a taxi thing anyway. I regretted my decision when she text me to say that Nigel #2*** and Alan were out wearing suits. But that was nothing compared to how I felt when she text to say that she'd just seen Hot IT Guy!

Friday
I was a complete spanner all day. I must have tried about 4 times to time leaving the office to bump into him! I'm obsessed! It's not healthy. I did see him when I left work in the end and we had a nice chat. He told me he'd been gutted I wasn't with out with Dippy Chick Thursday night and before I left checked exactly when I'm next planning to be out. Won't be for another 2 weeks because I'm skint, so it looks like we're going to carry on dancing around each other until then. When I'm pretty certain there will be kissing and he'll try and get me into bed. It's blatantly obvious how I feel about the damn boy though so I think sex would be a huuuuge mistake.

My head is really rather messy about the whole thing. It's clear I want more than sex from him, even though I really don't think we'd work out. I would have serious trust problems with him and I think I'd just screw it up anyway, because of having had the stupid crush on him for so long. I'd overthink things too much because I want him to like me, which is a surefire route to failure.

* I feel mean calling her Anaemic Chick but I can't think of another name for her so I'm just shortening it. I feel really rather shit about the whole Hot IT Guy thing in general now to be honest. She's become a real person to me now and it makes me feel really lousy even though they've broken up and she actually seems happy to be single.

** He'd said something about me kicking myself after drunk texting him and I said perhaps I wouldn't if I ever got any back.

*** Dippy Chick told Nigel#2 that he didn't need to worry, I wasn't out, so he was safe from harassment and he told her that he quite liked it, thought it was sweet!

NEWSFLASH!

Hot IT Guy is apparently back on the market!

He told Dippy Chick that he "got dumped." His Facebook profile still says, "In a relationship with Anaemic Chick" though and his profile picture is still one of them together so I really don't know what to make of it. Dippy Chick did say that he said he'd been holding out hope that it was a mistake - which would explain the leaving things as they were - but that now he wasn't that bothered - which doesn't.

She text and then rang me almost straight away after talking to him (on Facebook chat) and I just felt really weird. I don't know why. Sort of unsettled and unsure of how to feel. I suppose I should be pleased; I've wished he was single for months. But I didn't want him to be the dumpee, I wanted him to dump her because he realised their relationship wasn't right if he was cheating on her all the bloody time!

Here's Johnny!

I seem to have a fixed amount of mojo to cover every aspect of my life and at the moment most of it seems to be directed at fitness because I'm training for a triathlon at the end of August. Well sort of. I've been putting an awful lot more effort into running than either of the other disciplines, purely because that's the one I enjoy most*.

Anyway, that's my explanation for my absence. There have been lots of posts I've thought about writing, there have been scribbled notes of things to blog about and even a few started and aborted drafts but I just haven't had the right head on. Even when I've had things I've really wanted to waffle on about.

Like what happened with Nigel #2 and how things have been since (strained for a bit, but gradually back to normal and slightly flirty and teasy again - although I may have broken that again now). There have been nights out to talk about, there's been flirting with boys, falling in and out of lust with Hot IT Guy (or at least trying to fall out of lust with the damn boy) repeatedly, there's been funny conversations and angsty moments but I just haven't been able to find the words to write about it all.

I may or may not do some catch up posts I can't decide, but I am hoping to divert some mojo to the blog and actually write something!

*My enjoyment of swimming wasn't improved on discovery that a boy I knew (read: kissed) in college, who keeps "poking" me on Facebook is a lifeguard at the pool I need to go to.

The best hangover cure

Two ibuprofen?

No.

Guzzling pints of water?

Nah.

A sachet of resolve? (YUCK!)

Nope.

Two self administered orgasms?

Hell yeah!

Well that was embarrassing...

I made a pass at Nigel #2 on Friday night.

It didn't go so well.

Well, it wasn't a complete failure as I did get a snog out of it but I also made a bit of a tit of myself. So I wasn't exactly relishing the idea of going back to Favourite Pub, convinced that I would in fact drop dead of embarrassment as soon as I walked through the door.

I faced my fear lunchtime because I knew if I didn't get it over with, I'd just stew on it and it would become this huge thing. Seeing as I like that pub and go in a couple of times a week, I didn't want that to happen.

Me and Dippy Chick lingered outside for a while, peering in the window to try and see if he was in there while I worked up some bottle. Bottle was not forthcoming so we went for a wander around the shops and then went back to try again. This time we hovered across the other side of the street until Dippy Chick forced me to go in.

As soon as I walked through the door, "It's the girl that snogged Nigel #2!*"

"Oh fuck!" I said very loudly but it didn't make the words stop. It was a man that's in there most lunchtimes and he's managed to embarrass me a few times before** but this time was definitely the worst. He made comments about Nigel #2 hiding and asked me what I did to him.

"So much for helping with the Awkward." I said to Dippy Chick as Alan, Nigel #2's brother***, was serving me - refusing to get roped in by Humiliation Man, which did a lot to endear me to him. She found it quite funny.

Nigel #2 finished waiting on tables then and appeared by the edge of the bar, he looked over to me and said hello. I said hi back and called over that I was trying to get the awkward out of the way but I'm not certain he heard as he was heading back into the kitchen at the time.

Even when we'd sat down Humiliation Man just wouldn't leave me alone, he kept calling over to me telling me to come over and say hello to Nigel #2. I couldn't look at Nigel #2, I was so embarrassed. So it hasn't really got anything out of the way.

*Or words to that effect anyway, I was too busy cringing to pay that much attention.

**Wolf whistling at me as I walked up the stairs to the loos and making a comment about the length of my skirt to Nigel #2.

***Who is also seriously cute. Dippy Chick, Avon Lady and I went to lunch in Favourite Pub one day last week and as Alan was walking passed Avon Lady said, "NG, eyes, above the waist young lady!" quite audibly. I'm going to get a reputation. (But the boy does have a mighty fine arse!)
