Tuesday was fun! Gramps,Mae, Sid, Me and John all went to the circus! Oh we had so much fun! John pulled in just as we did and walked inside with us.

Of course you know when you go to the circus the first thing you see is all the overpriced crap that kids just HAVE TO HAVE! Well John tried to buy the girls stuff, but since it was 2 kids, i paid for the first round of junk.

Then it was onto the cotton candy and sodas, i was good i let him pay for those. Off to find our seats. We had pretty decent seats for the show they put on. It wasnt the biggest show but it was nice.

They offered pony rides with pictures for 8 bucks, yea we did that. Funniest thing about the pony rides is the guy yells SHOVEL! and i stopped dead in my tracks one foot up. He goes Maam not you, the pony. Now i may not have been born or lived on a farm but if im near any animal and i hear SHOVEL...im dead stopping and cuz i dont want poo on my shoes.

Next Sid Mae and I took an elephant ride! Oh My GOD....the girls loved being on that elephant. I on the other hand figured out im soo not as flexible as i once was. As soon as i got on it was instacramp in my upper thigh....If i cant straddle an elephant roflmao how am i supposed to hang with John...Hes like six three and is a BIG guy! John tried to use my pos camera to get pictures of us on the elephant. But the cam sucks so the pics arent real good. Thank god for memories.

Back in the stands John bought me and the girls sno cones and then tried to buy Mae a 10 dollar elephant on a stick(when shes done with that thing im sooo keepin the "cane" inside lol). It was hard for me to let him buy her that. I dont know what my deal is but i always feel like i have to pay my own way.

Finally i relented and leaned over and told him that if he wanted to he could. He hopped off to the atm and mae had her elephant.

It was rather weird to be out and about with Mae and a guy who wasnt just a friend or her dad. Because John is so big i think that intimidates her, but when i wanted her to sit down next to me, nope she plopped her butt next to John.

I think he will be ok with her, its just strange for me. Mae is around all my friends but they are friends. Its just strange lol.

We had such a good time that after it was over John was like we should go to Adventureland this summer. Its our theme park about 2 hours from here. He said they have a circus there year round and we should go.

Wow....things are moving along. Hell i even blasted the net about it. I figure its time to let part of the cat out of the bag. Im living life and why shouldnt i be able to share at least part of it? Im done being scared, now to actually stop, of what kind of reaction ill get, but i waited a month for him to meet Mae and i have my moms approval for her to be around. Thats good enough for me!

Girls who make bad choices need their girlfriends and moms validation sometimes lol and between my mom and friends ill be helped making good choices.
