Merfolk and Alligator Noises

So okay! This weekend, wow.
So Saturday I drove down to Surfside, Texas. It felt so good to be at the beach. The weather was amazing, the waves were amazing. The beach, generally amazing. We played beer pong on our sand-built beer pong table (pictures to come!) and generally had a blast. Also, I came out to Margarita. . .and since I was really not sure about where she stood on the subject, like at all, I was basically freaking out about it. It took me like 20 minutes of listening to her trying to guess things to finally work up the courage. But hey, I did it! And it went just fine haha. She basically said this: "Really. Really?! You got me all worked up and that was it?! You had me scared! Good lord. No this is awesome! Why would I care? Now we can gossip about hot girls!" Haha, life is good. Coming out to Margarita, in turn, now allowed me to come out to her friends (one in particular who has been showing interest in me. . .) Unfortunately I didn't subtlety work it into the conversation until After he bought he dinner (and Yes I did ask for a separate check but the waitress thought it would be cute to ignore me). But anyways, it all turned out okay. Frazier took it well and didn't seem too butthurt, just maybe a little disappointed. But recovered quickly and is still being one cool dude, if not cooler honestly now that he's not concerned about flirting. Needless to say, our adventures together consisted of almost getting swallowed by the ocean's riptide, making sand bunnies followed by our own sand interpretation of the Sistine Chapel's "Creation of Adam", which of course got destroyed by rowdy beach goers, then at dinner we shared a kids menu and drew another version of it, high-five style. Once again, pictures to come! All in all, the day was filled with watermelon, moose drool, swimming and tanning. I'd call it a success. Then the time came to clean up. . .turns out Frazier had the brilliant idea to bring a single key to the beach. A single key!! Who does that!! So of course it got lost. So then I took him back to his house in house to get his spare, and then we drove back to Surfside to get his car. As it was 1 AM by this point, I decided to do the only logical thing and camp out on the beach under the stars. He decided to stay too and so we pitched my tent and stayed up talking until about 5. Bet you didn't think I could stay awake that long huh? Haha, that's okay me neither. When we woke up in the morning we packed up and then got breakfast at IHOP, which was delicious. We then parted ways and I went to my mom's house to get cleaned up before heading over to my cousin's place.
