That’s right I’m off to the Big Apple yet I’m still blogging. I have a lot to catch you all up on like my follow up date with the GeoGeek/Pizza Guy. Yeah, he sucks. It was the longest 2 hour dinner of my life. Let me take you back…
Saturday was my show and then afterwards was a birthday party my friends and family were all in cahoots about. It was a big surprise for me but I wanted it that way. In fact every time someone asked me what I was doing for my birthday I told them I don’t know, my girl friends are taking me out, if you know anything don’t tell me. I didn’t want the surprise to be ruined. Where’s the fun in that?
So, after the party they all put together successfully for me we went to the bar. I ended up closing the bar with two of my sisters. They are not used to hitting up the town…any tow…so this was a big treat for them. They were not ready to go home until someone made them. Before the lights came on and we were forced to leave my sisters did manage to get me to willingly give my number to a couple guys as well as take down numbers of other eligible men. In hindsight I think we were drinking too much to make good decisions but it was never-the-less impressive.
Sunday came quickly. Both my sisters left my place pretty early after sleeping off the night before. I stayed in bed for a long time waiting for the illness that luckily didn’t come. I finally crawled out of bed and headed up towards my parent’s house.
I got a phone call from GeoGeek. He asked me to dinner and I agreed. He asked if I had a favorite restaurant. I told him I didn’t and that I was leaving the restaurant up to him. **I figured I chose the first restaurant for lunch on Thursday…it’s his turn.** I hurried and got everything together so I could head back home in time to get ready for my dinner date.
The time came, he was outside. I went downstairs to meet him at his car. Where the F is he? No, seriously. Where the FUCK is he? I called him. “Where are you?” He could hardly tell me where he was but he didn’t think it would be right since he was outside a dorm.
**Then don’t tell me you’re here f-er.** “Well, which corner are you on?” I knew he was at the right intersection just not the right corner. He couldn’t explain it to me. After about 15 minutes of back and forth trying to figure out where the F he was he finally got to my place.
I got in the car. “So, I’m not that good with picking out restaurants. I wrote a few down. Here they are.”
He tells me which ones.
“Never been. NO. Never been.”
We drove past one of the places. Closed. I don’t remember why but the 3rd place was also ruled out. Ok, now we need to find another place. Easy. Right? It’s a pretty big city. He continues to drive with no destination in mind. I know I was snotty but I said, “Um, why don’t we just pull over and figure out where we’re going instead of driving in circles.” I was irritated though…with good cause. He had one simple thing to do…find a place to eat. Why didn’t he go online or call about hours or something. C’mon.
We settled on a sort of mexican fusion like place. I had never been but had heard good things from a friend in the past. It was ok. Not great. Even the date wasn’t absolutely horrible until the bill was delivered and the man wouldn’t stop talking. It was so bad that our waitress actually came to our table to asked us to pay our bill because we were the last of her tables for the evening and they were getting ready to close. Honestly, the bill sat on the table for over an hour. It was the longest hour of my life.
I knew he was going to try to kiss me when he dropped me off. I wish I could have walked home to have avoided that situation. He leaned in…I kissed him quick. Just a peck a split second long. He pulled back. Smiled a little then leaned in again. I did the same then said, “thanks for dinner. I need to get home.” He said something about doing it again. I looked him in the eye and said email me. He hasn’t. I hope he realized that date sucked and there most definitely will not be another. UGH!
