June 26 2008: The Dude Person
Filed under Men
I’ve (surprisingly) actually had a few people contact me via email and the like, to question me on this new fellow in my life. Mish for instance, grilled me about him when I was at her place today (we played Singstar and made vanilla muffins with lemon icing!). I hesitate to use the b word when referring to him here, or elsewhere, for fear that I turn into one of those dreadful people, so shall stick to calling him simply my “dude person”. Or, Alex. Either one works.
I was going to write an entry describing him and explaining why we’re together…but well, to tell the truth, I didn’t think I could do the latter without simpering, tittering like a schoolgirl, or throwing a few “awww” and “*blush*” in the explanation. That’s the thing about me: I seem mature and level-headed, until I open my mouth and a twelve-year-old kid’s squeaky voice comes out, replete with teenage idiocy. So, some basic details, in list form.
- He’s 27 years old, six years older than myself. (Our birthdays are three days apart).
- He’s tall (185cmish), with a slim build and brown hair and grey/blue eyes
- He works with music (he’s currently training to be a sound engineer/masterer/person thingie, and he mixes beats in his own time)
- He’s very black. Not in skin tone, but rather in his clothing choices, mood, demeanor, humour, etc. He has a very cynical world view, and is rather sardonic, sarcastic, etc.
We’re polar opposites (I’m 21, short, ‘plump’ build, tone deaf and relentlessly optimistic), but somehow, it works. We work. And…that’s it. No more squealing. From now on, he’s nothing more than one of the many recurring characters in the soap opera of my life.
He sounds sexy :P
And you always make me laugh :D

You deal with my cold and black little soul well, so I doubt he’ll be that hard to deal with! :)
He sounds fantastic though.
And fantastic and fantastic makes… lots of fantastic.
Grats.

I feel like you stole my name. I call Josh dudeperson all the time and have for a year or two, possibly three. Not for fear of the boyfriend word but because it sounds cool. heh.
But for an on-topic reply, he sounds nice looking. Don’t think I’d go for his personality, though. I like happy, optimistic guys.
