I wanna dance with somebody

ah those days... the 80s.. the teens. when this song, and her version of 'saving all my love for you' had such an influence on that phase of your life. you were waiting for the one and only. want to do all the stuff only with the one you love. full and final deal. I remember when xb would ask me why I wouldn't give it up to him, I used to reply, cheesily, 'I am already loyal to my future husband'.

cut to yesterday. I wanted to go hiking. son bailed out this time. xh got pulled in. Atleast once per season I am able to drag one or all of them. then they start looking away whenever I ask. Daughter's turn is next, although she refused RIGHT AWAY this season.

I have decided I won't go hiking alone like I did last year. It may or may not have anything to do with me turning around when I saw a HUGE deer on the trail right ahead of me, looking at me.

so anyway, we got late heading out. while going, XH goes, 'we will do just 30 minutes, and then go watch some movie'. I was like, 'we are not going that far just for 30 minutes'. So he was like, how much is the longest trail. I didn't want to say miles, so I said 50 minutes or so. He now began questioning the whole idea lol.

So we went. I am a slow walker, he was even slower. I tried to adjust a lot, so that we could walk together. Once I looked behind, he was iphone browsing. that's when I took off. Whenever he fell behind by 40-50 feet, he would run to catch up. And then slow down again.

I made up my mind eventually. Yes, having someone who enjoyed it would be good. But today, I am in my moment, enjoying my day, getting my rush, and I am "safe". If I fall and break something, I know he will find me in probably 3 minutes. If a bear shows up, I know he will hear my scream.

forget about wanna this with somebody, wanna that with something. do what you want regardless.

When it ended, I congratulated him for surviving it. Then I was hungry, so we went to a desi place. Had chaat and ras malai. Packed food. Did groceries, and came home.

I guess overall things are fine. Although, I need to find a hiking buddy pronto. I mean someone who doesn't try to get in my pants.

trust me, that wouldn't be a problem. even a 70+ year old doesn't think much about your looks.

-2 or -3's shouldn't worry about people getting into their pants.

I wanna hike with somebody..... tongue

wrt the last sentence, find a woman partner. You won't have such issues :-). You'll have other issues like reliability. Can't count on women until they actually make it. They can drop out in the very last minute on some excuse or the other.

I will be starting my hikathons from this weekend onwards. Thankfully, hubby is as enthusiastic about hikes as i am. My hiking buddy!

older was asking us just now, 'so, did you two bond over hiking y'day?' she always mocks our relationship weirdness. Rolling Eyes

xh got so defensive lol. said he enjoyed it more than he had originally thought. in a way, yeah, the last one mile or so he did walk in pace with me. that was also coz we were back on the paved road and needed to figure out where the exit was. that also prevented me from shooting ahead in a way.

then she's like, 'well, did you atleast bond over your dinner'. yeah, that's never been a problem, heh. eating together is something we've always done well.
