Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to Dayton, where the local time is...

As sad as it is to say - my vacation has come to an end and I have had to come back to Ohio.  I just spent the past week in Las Vegas with my family as well as two friends from high school, and a couple friends from high school who live in Las Vegas now.   To say I had a fantastic time would be selling it short.  Did I do a whole lot?  Not particularly, but its more about the company I suppose, and just not being in Ohio that makes the whole trip worth while.

We stayed at Treasure Island, which for some reason is now only referred to as "ti"... but the hotel was beautiful, our room was freshly remodeled and the location was central to everything, including the Fashion Show Mall... I saw Mystere' while we were there which was probably my favorite Cirque show to date. 

I wish I had tons of stories to share, but sadly - all I did was relax, gamble a little bit and tan.

Drew picked my mom and I up from the airport on sunday night.  It was the first time she had met him, and  it was actually my idea for him to pick us up.  Since then he's actually met both my parents and spoken to them briefly.   With him meeting my parents it just reaffirmed the fact I want to tell them that he is more than a friend.  I think they can see that but don't want to ask and like I've said before (a) Im an adult and (b) I know they want me to be happy.  I can safely say after being with him for over two months that I trust him and I know our relationship is not one of those based totally around sex.  In fact it's quite the opposite.  We have our affection but its something that we haven't rushed into and to be honest, out of the few relationships I have had - this feels like the most adult, and most serious relationship I've had.  He makes me smile today as brightly as the day I met him and I think that says something.  

So my plan for now is to continue to bring him around my parents more and more  and then hopefully by my birthday they will know.   

Anyway - this was sort of a blabber on kind of post, I have other topics I was thinking of while I was in Vegas but those will have to wait until at least tomorrow evening.  

Starting with the topic of people who take advantage of others for selfish reasons...
