My First Summer In My New City...Labor Day

I really thought, and now I believe, that time passes you by in a blink of an eye. I asked myself, where had this Summer went.I did none of the things I'm use to doing when I lived in The Bronx. Things like bike riding, going to free outdoor concerts. One thing stayed the same though, I worked.

Sure, I got the chance to meet new people, mostly females. But that is just the way I am. I also got the chance to visit other large cities North of New York City, like Syracuse. I spent the better part of the day in a Mall with a woman I met online and had a very nice time. We both didn't want the fun day to end, so we...well, you know. But what made her exciting and fun to be around was that she is exactly like me...in a way. Difference between her and I mainly is that she is retired and has a lot of free time on her hands which she spends trying to get reaquainted with her 2 grown daughters, which left no time for us to be really together. I was disappointed in that sense, but haven't and won't say nothing about that because family is family. She called me one day while leaving one city, going back home. Mind you its a 4 hour drive o her daughters home. She was crying because of what her daughter said to her. She said that she was a mother that made no time for her as a child, and now as an adult, she thinks she can just come back into her life and make changes, and try to rule her life as a 'Mother'. The only thing I can say after 15 minutes of straight listening without interrupting her was..'Family is Family' Oh well.

Lost track of time, really I did. Yesterday was the unofficial last day of Summer being it was Labor day. I HAD to get to the beach NOW. I don't own a car and the beach isn't that far away, I can get there by bus, but... All I wanted to do was get in the water for 15 minutes. A friend stopped what she was doing, picked me up and waiting until I was finished and then drove me back home. This friend, she is a beauty and she knows what I am about and want s to..like really see what it is about me first hand. But, she has a man, who she says she is comfortable with. Didn't say anything about marriage or love either. She says she can only be around me when other people are..not because of me, but it's her. She said she doesn't trust herself. I questioned that, but I leave it alone now.

Well, here is to what Winter brings. Good bye Summer.
