I don’t know about you but I think Rick is getting serious with Kaitlin. I mean, they’re both crazy in their own way but maybe that’s the common thread that binds them. I don’t even know how long they’ve been dating! Maybe it started off on St. Paddy’s Day in that bar. Romance, love, and attraction do crazy things to people I tell ya!
Talk about romance, Laura, Tim, Kong and I have been hanging out a lot together too. It’s usually really nice out so I take long walks, to go see Laura, or we walk Kong in the park. The weather’s perfect for BBQs too! I guess we’ll just have to transport our ‘dating scene’ online since I’ll be on the road for a couple of days… which makes me think: what is it going to be like riding around with the Rick and Kaitlin combo…
Toxic Romance
Our man Rick is not a “steady relationship” kinda guy. He dated a couple of women here and there, but he keeps hopping around and wandering off. Usually it’s the women who flock to him because of his simple Texan ways. Read more about that on the blog. The man has the looks and that “reserved, quiet, mysterious cowboy thang” going for him. But he never really gets serious with anyone. After a while, the women get bored and leave him, either that or they’re just friends like Megan and Kate. I don’t blame them, even I have my limits with Rick. I mean, he’s a great buddy but I’m glad he lives on the other side of the state line.
After the whole skinny dipping incident I decided that Rick and I had to have a little mano a mano–I asked him, “What’s up with you and Kaitlin? I mean, it’s not like I didn’t warn you about her.” Rick was quiet, I’d like to think that he was thinking seriously about what I had asked but you never know with this guy. “Well, Bob, you know I haven’t really dated anyone for what, a year?” And it’s true, he’s been really burnt and stayed away from relationships. Maybe he’s finally ready to move on. “But this Kaitlin, she has something going that I can’t put my finger on… maybe it’s because she’s as crazy as me, but I’m thinking, maybe it’s about time I got serious,” said Rick. At that point I couldn’t help smiling and I started to chuckle, “Rick man, the word ’serious’ and you DO NOT go together.” Rick smiled, he got my humor, and said, “I know, I know, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have a chance at this romance thang, right? I mean, how hard can it be if there’s a heck load of people out there who stay together for ages?” Maybe he’s finally coming to his senses, maybe Rick’s just growing up. The world must be upside down.
