A Second Date with the Jamacian I haven't really wanted to even date. Cry A River, Build A Bridge, Get Over It. After two disasterous relationships, I am not willing to get over it again. I don't want my heart stomped on again. I met the Jamacian at Wal-Mart when he was buying plantains. We were discussing the different ways to cook plantains. When I worked in Produce at Sam's Club, I learned that plantains are popular among the African Community. That night before going home from work, the Jamcacian brought a plate full of cooked plantains along with some mystery meat. I really really do not want to date but he kept asking. Finally, We went Geocaching on the Greenbrier River Trail for the first date. I have a hearing disability and he has an accent. It was not easy understanding what he was saying. I really didn't want a second date. He kept showing up at the store and asking. So this week we went to Bath County, Virginia to the Homestead. I remember laughing when they declared English the official language of West Virginia. English is also the official language of Jamacia but they definately don't speak the Queen's English. I was listening to him converse with some of his Jamacian Friends. I have no idea what they were saying. Afterwards we went Geocaching at Humpback Bridge in Virginia. This Sunday is a Twelve Step Picnic at the Greenbrier State Forest. He coming along and he's cooking.  Abracadabra  |

Hi Star: It's not easy to take a risk with a new man after a few failed relationships, so good for you. It sounds like you two are having a good time so far. You're right about the Jamaican patois being impossible for non-Jamaicans to understand. Have fun. My favourite food on earth is Jamaican curried goat.

You had fun and enjoyed yourself. Just enjoy the here and now, your time together and learning and sharing. If anything develops so much the better - if not you are enjoying something new and different in your life. We never know when something great might happen from ordinary stuff. Spiritwoman ^i^
