Coffee with the other Angelo (+ Whaxteroo...)

What I thought would be a gimik-less Thursday night turned out to be quite interesting.

Since I knew today would be a holiday and Thursday was so good, I was really psyched for a night-out. I didn't want to miss the Reagan's dance class, so I just asked the usual suspects at the office to message me where to meet up later in the evening.

An hour of spinning and another hour of dancing later, I got myself a surprise when I got messages that no plans would materialize. I guess not everyone was as psyched to party as I was. Hehe.

All of a sudden I was gimik-less. It was amusing.

I was already at the bus stop and ready to accept defeat, when Multiply friend Angelo responded to a text reply. I was asking him where he got his piercing, and his reply included a coffee get-together.

Gave him a call and after finding out that his building was just a couple of streets away from mine, we agreed to meet up at a nearby Starbucks. Whoopppee! Angelo gave Whaxter a call to ask where he was. A couple of minutes after he hung up, Whaxter was already approaching our table. Another whoopppee!

It's been so long since the last time I met another Angelos. But here's an amusing piece of info with this guy. We were born on the same date - October 22 - but different year. Through grade school, HS and college, I've always met one friend whose birthday is also Oct. 22. What's up with that date?

Anyway, the three of us just hung out and chatted for about an hour, talking about people, relationships (or the lack of it, for me and Whaxter... haha!), Daniel Craig and Pierce Brosnan, among others.

By the time I was done with my Apple Berry Freeze (my new fave), Angelo had to go back to the office. Whaxter and I stayed on a bit and talked some more about damatans stuff. Hehe!

A bit of a gist of our topic. Whaxter and I are somewhat on the same boat. I was telling him, "Whaxter, I've a feeling that I'm not meeting anyone because somewhere in the deepest recesses of my mind, I know that I'm just fine on my own. I have no issues watching movie alone, or eating out by myself. Neither do I feel vulnerable when I'm doing my solo paseo at the mall." He said that's exactly how it is for him, too. I won't delve much into this. Thoughts on this topic are reserved for another blog post. Hehe!

Half past midnight, Whaxter and I called it a night. We got up, gave each other our usual tight hug and bid each other goodbye.

I'm really glad the get-together happened. Angelo, thank you for the saving. Hehe! Whaxter, always happy to see you.

Alonzo, on your absence, I've this to say, "Zannen desu ne!!!" =( Next time definitely.

Happy Thursday night.
