I met him at the Walmart in Prince Frederick at about 10 (I was half hour late! PF is FAR!). I was kind of expecting a gift! We then proceeded to go to the Calvert Maritime Museum. Today was their reopening day and it was free plus there were tons of different activities and things going on there. The otters were my highlight! He's also a walking encyclopedia. He knows EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING! Sometimes I just want to look at a picture of an old dude and not hear the history or the thingamajig he's holding! I'm cool with calling it a thingamajig! I'm also cool with silence. There doesn't have to be conversation every minute. I know some people get nervous when it's quiet but I don't mind it (I know this might be surprising coming from me!). However, he's definitely a good sport. When I noticed a cut out, pirate, photo-op I said "Oooo.... go get behind there and let me take a pic." He said "ok." I like when people say OK after I tell them to do something! Some might call that "bossy".... I prefer "decisive"! :) Around 12:30 we decided to go to Solomon's Island to grab lunch. We both wanted crabs but they didn't have any in yet so I settled for Cream of Lacking in Crab Soup and Salad. HE PAID! :) WOOP! WOOP! We then walked around the town and went into the Oyster Museum- it's better than it sounds! We then drove around the Island just to look at the scenery and hate on the people that live lavish lives. He then said he didn't know what else we could do but rattled off about 3 ideas. I was up for whatever. I was getting sleepy though so I told him I needed to probably leave the area around 4 or so to get back to Molly, which was true. My girl needed her dinner! He said something about me not sticking around for dinner. Apparently, when he said we would make a day of it, he meant the WHOLE day. I told him that I would gladly stay but my dog needs food and to go potty. Really, I was looking forward to seeing the inside of my eyelids in my bed! Not that I was having a terrible time, because I wasn't! I was just tired.
So he took me to his Aunt and Uncle's beach house at Cove Point. He said "I'm sure you're not anticipating meeting my family on the second date and this might be a bit awkward, but I feel like I have to say hi to them if I stop at their house to park my car." I didn't have a problem with it especially after meeting his Aunt and Uncle. She's awesome. She told him she would have "beat the shit out of him" if he had parked and not stopped to say hi. I knew right then that I liked her! :) We walked down to the beach where we looked for about an hour and half for shark's teeth. He found 7 and I found bupkis! I did find 1 piece of sea glass and several pretty shells so I will take it. I found some teeth but they weren't sharks teeth or at least I don't think they are... they are gray and less triangular. Whatever, it was fun regardless. After that, he brought me back to my car and I travelled home. It was an enjoyable day and definitely the longest date I've ever been on. I'd like to see a third date happen but we shall see.... I put it out there and I haven't gotten a response. We shall see! New learned fact of the day: His ex and I share the same first name! She must be the evil Melissa because I'm clearly the awesome one!
