Once again

Yep. You guessed it. I played golf again today with my friend John. It was largely good and I shot about what I normally do. I didn't make any huge mistakes, nor did I make any spectacular shots. Just kind of run of the mill, safe golf.

The one annoyance that I did face was having a single golfer teamed up with us. That wouldn't be a bad thing, normally, but I got the distinct feeling that this guy was taking WAY too much interest in me, if you know what I mean. It really didn't help my concentration when he kept making sure that he stood nearby me whenever he could, and whilst I was walking he drove his cart right beside me and tried to make personal converstion and kept probing for details about me. He ignored my friend John and the other guy that joined us on the back nine. He kept asking personal questions and scoffed when I gave vague answers. "Oh, so you don't want me to know anything about you?" He said.

Granted, I'm cute, (OK, really cute) but I'm not gay. Nor do I have any problem with gay people, I just didn't like the attention. I finally made a point (when he was trying to find out where I lived) that my wife (now ex-wife, but I didn't mention that part) and I had moved to this area when there was no construction and now things are really booming.

He did leave me alone after that, and I appreciated that he respected/recognized my sexual orientation (or he just gave up). It just took to long for me to get the point across, I guess. Probably wasn't his fault, he was just trolling.

But, I did shoot much better when he stopped paying attention to me. Maybe next time I won't dress so nicely. Maybe the ballerina costume was kind of misleading, although I do tend to putt better when I'm dressed for "Swan Lake."

JUST KIDDING!!

That must have been an extremely uncomfortable situation. At least he finally moved on.
