Dating Update
Tuesday, 2005 June 7 - 10:44 pm
Need... more... alcohol...

So I met ImprovGirl tonight.

If chemistry were height, tonight's date would have been Gary Coleman. I mean, we talked for about two hours and managed to find out just about nothing interesting about each other. I'm not the sparkliest conversationalist in the world, so if I'm the one who carries a conversation for two hours, there's something really wrong. You see, she advertised herself as being energetic and talkative. To that I say, "Whatchu talkin' 'bout, Willis?"

She had one glass of wine. I had two, and could have used about four more. We talked about our jobs, hobbies, movies, music... all very safe and very bland. It occurred to me afterwards that, with nothing to lose, I should have just asked about kinky sexual habits or something. ANYTHING to make the evening more interesting.

Upon getting back into my 'hood, I stopped by the store and bought a six-pack of Sierra Nevada and four-pack of Guinness. Much will be consumed tonight, I think.

So sorry. No truth in advertising there.
Next time, if the date is doomed, do engage in some shenanigans. Think of the entertainnment value!

The worst thing about those dates is when the other person actually thought it was a good time, and tries to schedule you for round two of "How was your day today? Did you have a good day today or a bad day today? Well, what kind of day was it? Well, I don't know. How about you? How was your day?"

My guess is, ImprovGirl found the evening just as dull as I did... especially at the end, where we were reduced to silently smiling and nodding at each other, then looking around the room while toying with our dreadfully empty wine glasses.
