07.24.04 (10:25 am)   [edit]
Diva was supposed to have a lunch date with a new prospect today at noon, but she was out too late playing love therapist last night and has a crashing headache. She called to cancel.

He countered with dinner.

Now, normally, dinner on a first date is a no-no for me. Especially on a weekend night. You're trapped there for hours. And there's no way to say "I've got an early meeting in the morning" to make an early departure. I could say I have church in the morning, but I think I'd crack up saying it... I guess I could always use the emergency phone call technique. (You know when you have a friend call you at a certain time and you use code words to say the date is going ok or not and can feign an emergency to ditch the date...)

He seems nice. He loves his dog. (Hopefully he doesn't love his dog as much as the guy that loved his horses a little too much for my taste.) But as many of you know, I have this amazing tendency to find the SEEMINGLY most normal well-adjusted men only to discover they are something out of our nightmares.

So now, I have to rethink the wardrobe. Saturday night date requires a little bit more effort. Sometimes I'll pick out a couple of outfits, throw them up in the air and whichever one hits the ground first, I wear. I don't know what sort of mood I'm in. I think I'll wait until the headache passes so I don't think that a bright floral skirt and a striped bouse and plaid jacket look good together.

Wait. I don't have any bright floral skirts. or striped blouses. or plaid jackets.

I guess I'm relatively safe. At least fashion-wise. I still could have a date with an ax-murderer. But at least they can say I was dressed impeccably in the obituary.

Optimistic, aren't I?

i am sorry to tell you that since sofp is out of town, you are stuck with me in her stead to confer with on wardrobe!! Yikes, now that could be a problem! sofp has such marvelous taste, whereas I, the poverty stricken biatch, tend toward the plaids with checks! LOL!

Haha. I am so into the quick "drink" or "coffee" as a first date because you never have to spend more than hour. :)

But, dinner doesnt have to be too bad. Just dont go to the kind of place that drags things out. So how was the date anyways?

while the cat's away, the mice raid the closet. Depending on the quality of her closet, 2 hr drive might be worth it. LOL

Have you found that when you set out two pieces of clothing - say one black one white - that Johnx2 will gravitate to sit on the black one since he's white? Apparently cats have the ability to hone in on the location where the fur can create the most impact. Or the most expensive piece of clothing...
