Dewey Baby, Dewey.

This weekend I broke my Dewey Beach cherry. I have been in DC for a few years now but had never made the pilgrimage to Dewey. I've been to Fenwick, Ocean City, and all over the Jersey Shore, but had never set foot on Dewey (AKA Do-me) Beach.

I rented a house with a group of friends. We all drove up Friday morning and returned to the city last night. As I have mentioned, Kay was one of the people in on the rental.

Overall, I didn't think Dewey was that bad. I had heard it was a dump, and that it was really seedy. It was certainly seedy, but the beaches were clean and the bars were no worse than most Jersey Shore spots. I mean, no one would confuse it with the Hamptons, or Newport, RI, but it could have been worse. We also took it somewhat easy. We cooked dinner in every night, then headed out to the bars at 10, so maybe my experience was skewed based on the company and our laid back nature.

Things went fairly well with Kay this weekend. I decided to drive Kay and her roommate up to the shore instead of taking my bike up, like I had originally planned. I thought it would be good to get a little extra face time with her before we got to the house.

The one thing that I hadn't really thought about was what I would do if I met a girl at Dewey and wanted to take her home. Clearly this would not have been an option if I ever wanted Kay to go out with me. I did talk to a bunch of girls while I was there, but no one I wanted to take home. The same was true with Kay. I saw her talk to dudes but she didn't hook up. Nothing happened between the two of us, either.

One night, while waiting for dinner, Kay mentioned that she has never tried lobster. She is a fairly picky eater, so it didn't surprise me, but I told her she is missing out on one of life's great pleasures. She said she would be willing to try it so I sent her an email today offering to cook her lobster one night if she would like.

On another note, I had a second date with a chick from the Internet. We went for drinks in Chinatown, then to a movie. She is pretty average in all regards. Average looking, average body, vanilla personality. I don't think she's exceedingly smart, and I am not attracted to her at all. I think I knew most of this after the first date, but any doubts were confirmed after date number two. The date ended up on my couch drinking wine at 1am. We made out for a little while, but it was clear nothing more than a little kissing was going to happen, so I told her I had to be up early and got her out of there as soon as possible.

I also received a text from the first girl I went out with. She was also under whelming, but I think I am going to give her a second shot.

One last thing. This morning I was on match.com checking out profiles and I clicked on one. I opened the profile and clicked on a second picture. It took me a few seconds to realize that it was Kay. There really isn't a problem, but if she checks her "Who viewed me" section she will be able to see that I looked at her profile. Again, not the end of the world, but it could potentially be a little awkward.
