I just saw Iron Man and I really liked the movie. Robert Downey Jr. looks better than I thought. And he looks really good in suits. Anyway, I’m getting off topic. I saw the movie today, alone, and there were two seats empty next to me. This guy named “George” sat next to me and I quickly noticed the tattoos on his hands.

Something told me he was part of a gang but I didnt want to prejudge him because he had tattoos on his hands. He was really nice. He offered me Starburst and asked why I was sitting by myself. Before I could answer he asked, “if I was trying to get away from everything?” And I told him, “Yeah!”.

I asked him the same question and he said he was on the work release program and he just got off work. For those who dont know, work release programs are often afforded to people who spent time in prison. It’s a way for them to get back to society and earn a living. I guess I was right that he “may” have been part of a gang but it didnt matter to me. He was very nice and respectful.

Anyways, I said all this to say that even though I had a nice guy sitting next to me, I felt very uncomfortable. It’s been a while since I sat at a theatre alone and with him next to me I couldnt do things that I would normally do with someone I was “involved” with.

Usually if I’m restless sitting in a chair, I would lean on my “man” or put my leg on “him” to get comfortable. But with “George” I couldnt do that, because I just met him. LOL! I was moving around in my seat and he kept looking at me to see if I was ok, but I tried to get comfortable.

The movie was done and I quickly left the theatre because I was far from the door and I didnt want to stand behind anyone scratching their ass.  I didnt bother to look back at “George” because I was just not ready for anymore small talk.

I drove home… alone, and went into my apt…alone and it was tough. However, I’ve come to the realization that this is something I have to deal with for now because I am less stressed now than before.

Right now IM LONELY but hopefully it wont be long. I am not too eager to meet new people yet but whatever happens, happens.

P.S. I wore the red Payless shows to the movies. See shoes below.
