My date

I had a date with a guy at work tonight. The first date after the break up with my boyfriend. I got ready putting on make-up, nail polish, an empire style knit dress, tights, and 3 inch heeled boots. We planned a dinner and movie date. He comes and announces that his friend from another time zone came to town last night and called him right before he left to pick me up, so do I mind going to an unfamiliar place and visit with his friends there. No problem. My date's wardrobe reminded me of the photos of my Dad taken in the 1950's-60's when he had hair. Blue/white plaid shirt with white t-shirt underneath, blue jeans, black shoes and white socks. My guy has his hair and it is graying, yet short and hair gelled upwards (unlike Dad in the 50's and 60's).

This place he takes me to is an outdoor diner where a bunch of guys park their antique cars and drink beer twice a week. I had a Coke. After standing in 3 inch heels for several minutes, I had to sit down. I forgot to bring the sweater I intended to grab tossing Precious back into the apartment. Frodo hid under the bed. I wear a jacket provided by my date when it gets chilly.

After the antique car show, we go over to fancier eating place and his friends insisted they didn't want to impose any further on our date, but I said it was okay since I tolerated their presence the past few hours I can handle more. Besides, his out of state friend was kinda cute. Okay, I did have ulterior motive to saying yes his friends can tag along.

We depart and he takes me home saying he owes me a real date of dinner and a movie. He pets Precious sniffing his shoes and Frodo up on the cupboards. Yes, Frodo let him touch his head and he sniffed my date's hand. He noticed my table of family pictures and I went through who everyone was. He said good night and stepped out into the hallway. I grabbed Precious ready to sprint when the fire door gets opened and said good night with a big smile. I did have a good time. At least I met his friends and know, he is not weird. I tend to attract weirdoes so that is a concern of mine. Post later. Bye!
