Montclair Calling

This random guy on Nerve piqued my bored ass’s interest one night a week or so ago. Pretty straight-seeming single dad, hotlisted me, hadn’t noticed him for a while but he seemed attractive enough and me, being me, seized on the “Mostly Reformed” (MR) tagline under his profile photo. I emailed him asking for the dirty deets of his former bad boy ways. Didn’t get much or shall I say, anything, but a request for my phone number. After a bit of phone tag, we talked.

I told him about growing up in a strange land on the city’s outer boundaries, MR told me what I already knew about Montclair. His 13-year-old son called in the middle of the convo and we hung up after agreeing to meet, maybe for lunch Tuesday.

He texted me after telling me I seemed great and Tuesday was good. The story, or lunch, better be good.
