Merry New Year

I hope everyone had a safe and fun way to ring in the New Year.

My lunch yesterday went well. I'm going to call my friend Mikey so I don't have to keep referring to him as my friend. Mikey and I had a great time together...and lunch turned into movies at my place, and movies turned into some wine, and some wine turned into take-out dinner, and that turned into ringing in 2008 together, which turned into a fantastically romantic night, and breakfast this morning. He originally had plans to be somewhere else in the city...but he said he didn't want to leave. And I am forever greatful that I didn't have to endure New Years Eve alone.

I definitely have some strong feelings there for Mikey. and it's reciprocated. Part of me wants to give this a shot...to see what we have to offer eachother romantically...because platonically it's there. I have 2 major concerns though. First..if it doesn't work, i would hate for us to lose such a strong friendship that we have both built up and relied on for so long. Second...everything between Mikey and I has been gentle, and tender. Slow and warm. I'm afraid that we would lack passion. Don't get me wrong, I love the tenderness...but I'm a passionate person...and need that in my life. I cannot ever imagine us having an arguement. Or ripping eachother's clothes off. Is passion something that's there from the start...or is it something that can build?
That my readers...is my first question of the year.

Now onto some much needed rest before I go back to the grind tomorrow.
Best wishes in 2008
