Two Years and Counting
Randy and I are now officially in the third year of our relationship. To celebrate, we went out to dinner last night at 33 Restaurant and Lounge in Boston. He had been there once before, but this was my first time. The space was quite cool. Located on a one-block long side street (what my friend Chris would refer to as an alley), it had exposed brick (complete with old arches and other details) and a very cool lighting scheme. In the center of the space was a stairwell that went down to a lower level, but the staircase morphed into the bar on the main level using a funky illuminated wall/railing structure.
The food was decent (nothing stellar), but being a Tuesday night the place wasn’t too crowded so we had a nice private table by a window. After dinner, Randy suggested we pop into Club Cafe (nearby gay bar), but by the time we stood up and felt how full we are, he suggested heading home instead.
Considering that by that time it had begun to rain a bit, I was perfectly fine heading home, too.
And that was our night…a far cry from our actual first date two years ago: we met at my place, had lunch at Pizzeria Regina, then walked along the North End waterfront. He then left to go see a movie with friends, and I ended up going on another date with somebody else that evening. Shhhh – don’t tell!
I can honestly say, though, that neither of us went out on a second date last night. This time it was all about us.
*Oh, and the photo above was the first ever photo of us together…taken by a stranger at Mount Auburn Cemetery almost a month after we met.
