O M G ! I can’t believe its ‘another day’ already…lol
Remember at the end of my last blog post I said “Til now I will have to be satisfied with lurking in various Alaska Facebook groups and chatting with AK men on dating sites 😳 did I say that? Its a story for another day…”
Well, it’s ‘another day’…
In order to satisfy my Alaska urgings + learn all I can about the different places I’m interested in, I have been chatting on FB Alaska groups, reading AK blogs, and yes I am on a couple of dating sites…where I pick the brains of Alaskan men.
- Enter Mr. X who contacted me last fall; I quickly blew him off saying we wouldn’t be a match and shortly after, I deactivated my profile for lack of internet services. Now that I have reactivated it, Mr. X has contacted me once more. Again with the ‘we aren’t a match thing’…after all, he is in Utah, not Alaska. Well, he persisted even so…and says he has a place in Alaska and if I need a place to stay, it wasn’t much but he was workin on it a lil each year.
- Yeah well, still not QUITE ready to make the trip fundwise…maybe in a month or so. He offers a free ride to Alaska if I help him drive! Whaaaat???? At this point the wheels start turning in my head…
- Still gotta make it home after I get there…he offers to get a cheapie plane ticket if I can repay. O M G ! can I do this? SHOULD I do this? I don’t even know this guy, yet somehow I have to trust him because ALASKA is calling and I must go…and then in the back of my head all the horror stories…left with this unknown man, never seen again…lol
But its ALASKA!!! I know I get there; I know I AM there; I am just waiting to catch up to me 😂
He has agreed to come to my town to meet, so I can see he is not an ax murderer…omg isn’t that how the scary movies start? they lure the victim in with the innocence, then when they get you out of the country KABAM!! 😂😂 I can see my mother shaking her head that I’m even CONSIDERING getting in a vehicle with a stranger and travelling 3500 miles through a foreign country. And then I think of the line in my fav poem “and I, I chose the road less traveled by and it has made all the difference.” I am REALLY considering this. Leave a comment to tell me how insane I am OR how the universe is handing me the very thing I’ve been asking for.
I shall let you know how it goes…in the next post…unless he turns out to be an ax murderer LOL
