Sweet Disposition

The Song:
Sweet Disposition by The Temper Trap
"Hey, wanna hear some good tunes?  Download Temper Trap's new album Conditions"  was a facebook IM I received from a friend one day and thus my love for The Temper Trap was born.  Great harmonies, with a male on lead vocals who DOESN'T sound like he just got slamed in the lower parts when he tries to hit the high notes.  Dougy Mandagi's got a rich sound in his voice, with just a hint of that hipster weirdo-ness we all have come to love.


The Date:
Sweet Disposition
This is actually a date I had a really good time on!  I went through a stint of online dating.  It wasn't working, then it was working... then I was bored.  I met a guy, whose name will be kept anonymous  but lets say it rhymes with, Clark.  


Our first date was at Duffer's on 352, and we were there for HOURS.  We talked and laughed and he just had such a sweet and warm disposition.  I couldn't pin point it but I knew he was going to be someone special in my life.  I didn't let him kiss me that night... and he never let me forget it.  We kept talking and hanging out, we actually decided that we didn't want to be exclusive.  We had both been in relationSHITs prior to this and wanted to see what was out there for a while.  We kept in touch through the beginning of the fall.  


I was out  having a girls night at a friends house, we were drinking a ton of wine and some how that turned in to doing line dances in the living room... but I digress. We were having a girls night and all the sudden I got a text from "Clark".  It was rather cryptic, "Are you around?".  I went outside and called and he picked up after the first ring... "Meg, do you think you could come over?  I had a really awful night and I just wanted to talk.  If not that's ok I don't want to interrupt your night."  I said give me an hour or so and I'll be over.  I apologized to the girls, but he had sounded rather troubled.  I know I'd do the same for any friend.


I went over and we sat in his living room.  He poured me a drink and he had a beer.  I asked what had happened.  He was at a Happy Hour with some people from high school.  A few girls were there that had pretty much made his life miserable in earlier years.  True to Mean Girl form, they didn't let a little thing like maturity stop them from making fun of him again.  His feelings were a bit bruised but it was more the fact that he didn't understand how two people over the age of 25, who had college degrees and jobs could act they way they did.  All I could say was, "It's not all people, it's Mean Girls, and they never change.  It has nothing to do with you."  He said "well I guess I never thought about it that way, they're just picking on the so called 'weakest link' to make themselves feel better about their lives in which they clearly aren't happy about".... I said "umm sure ok yea that's what i meant".  We laughed and just kept talking.


Then came the awkward part, it was getting on to be about 2am and I was either getting laid or going home.  But it was different this time, I didn't think of it so Down and Dirty... I kinda cared about him.  So I asked him if he'd mind if I stayed here cause it was pretty late.  Of course he jumped on the opportunity... "Oh no no that's fine" but then this.... "I can sleep on the couch".  I laughed and said.... "Not necessary...."


Hands Down... best sex I've ever had.  I guess it goes to show you that it's not always the wild and crazy sex thats that hottest... sometimes its the sweet sex that makes all the waiting worth while.
