marco

another tuesday night in pelo. this time we (me and O) went to an outdoor concert for a group called gerónimo. very lovely salsa jazz. we sat on some steps that led up to a very old church. it was about mid-70´s with a slight breeze.

afterwards we ended up at another outdoor concert. samba on big hill. yes it is possible to samba on a steep hill. lol. a new friend, marco, invited us to a little restaurant with jazz. we sat out on the patio, sipped caipirinhas and listened to this group of individuals who come together every tuesday night round 10 and play their instruments. very beautifully, in fact.

marco. very cute. very friendly. diplomatic. intelligent. and in love with music. it´s always interesting when the ratio of men to women is not balanced. i think the question in the back of every person´s mind is "who will the [insert male/female] favor?" this is an inevitible reality. the lucky outnumbered male or female is always in a position to pick someone to "like" even if they don´t really like them. i don´t know why we (humans) do this. maybe it is a darwin thing. anyway. marco definately favored me. but the feelings were not mutual. i am soooooooo superficial. so. maybe he is too short (5´9 to my 5´11). married twice. two daughters. so, i made sure to facilitate a hook-up between him and O. i am a dork.

i have also caught the interest of two other men. one is this african guy with a dead eye and a horrible sense of style. "heeeeeeyyyyyyyy gul! i been looking for you!!!!" he is so persistent too. i mean how hard is it to interpret blank responses to your come-ons?

then there is george washington. that IS his name. he is an actor here in salvador. very very popular. he is also very nice. however, he puts me in the mind of my uncle cherry. only he has long locks. i love my uncle cherry, but i can not date him. lol.
