He called last night. I was almost certain he wouldn’t. I am so cynical. We are meeting Saturday night in Doylestown for dinner. It has been so long since I last went on a date.
Was my last date the one where the guy had gimpy, truncated legs and then he told me he found me unattractive?
Was it my 10 year high school reunion?
Was it the time I met that fellow in Princeton and at the end of the date he just shrugged and walked away without a goodbye or anything?
I can’t remember. They all stand out as reasons why I stopped dating. It is time to get back, especially if I have no desire to be an old woman, living alone in the Donna Villa, smelling faintly of urine, surrounded by cats wearing matching jumpers that I knitted them. I WILL STAY POSITIVE. Bob seems like a nice guy. I am sure he won’t act like a total ass. Of course the real question is, will I?
I am going to wear a black skirt and my new black, naugahyde boots and a pink shirt since men like pink. Maybe I will coat my body in vanilla and cinnamon scent. And I will try desperately not to fall into my old defensive measure of acting like an asshole.

Like I said, just enjoy yourself and be happy. I I bet if they knew you like we do, he’d fall down at your feet worship and your bits and bytes! LOL!
Anyways just let the topic of conservation go where it will and if you feel yourself becoming sliding back, just smile. Anyways take it easy and have a great weekend!

Congrats! Keep us posted š
I know it’ll be a great time!
Just have a couple drinks to loosen up and everything will be OK, or at least you won’t care and will enjoy yourself, it’s a win-win situation.
I don’t know if drinks are a good idea. I am a notoriously mean drunk. The thing is I go through stages… loose and good, flirty, superheroine, and then homicidal. Not good.
Yeah, but what a way to die. š
I said i thought your luck was going to change,and i still think that is true.Dont expect to much and you wont be disappointed.All these guys are right,just have fun.Be polite and nice.Then if things dont go well it must of been him.Alright i am starting to sound like my mom.Time to say bye.
Given that this is a first meeting/date, I suggest placing a certain amunt of emphasis on avoiding the last conversational topic in your list. š
Dammit, Donna! You are not a boring person. So why the boring, played-out, rehearsed conversation topics?! I think you sould talk about Peter “dork” Tork (why you think he’s a dork, I’m not sure, but it would make for an interesting conversation). Don’t hide your interests, hobbies, etc. If you do, he may end up thinking you’re just another cookie-cutter beauty with NOTHING on her mind but: cell phones, laptops, recipes … BLLEAAAHGGH!
Although I do agree with the above poster, maybe you should skip the genital mutilation part. Other than that, I’d switch the titles on your conversation list.
Oh, and by the by … does he know about your little site here? If this guy knows how popular you are (your recent “hit report”), he may find you all the more interesting!
Most of all, have fun.
Smelling faintly of urine?
ew.

If bob can’t see the forest through the trees thats his loss.Nathan is right,it sounds like you are the farthest thing from a boring person.I just hope he is a good listener.Because you have cool ,and interesting things to say.Be your self ,and ” I’m going to sound redundent now but” HAVE FUN.
