Well, Friday's date went okay, but I wouldn't be sad if I didn't go out with him again. He's actually very nice, very funny, very gentlemanly (big thumbs up), and quite cute. We met up for dinner (it took me half an hour to find parking, and I was extremely late, and I felt really bad :(). After dinner, we went and saw The Delicate Art of Parking. It was a great movie. It's a comedy about these people making a documentary on parking patrol people. Then we parted ways after the date. He had asked me if I wanted to go somewhere else after, but I declined.
Now...I liked that we had dietary things in common, as for likes and dislikes (aside from spicy...I don't care for spicy). When we had dinner, he ordered only a main...no drink, no appie, no dessert. I wasn't sure if he was worried about the cost or if he just didn't want anything else. He was sooo polite to the staff. I *really* liked that.
I can't say there are sparks, and I told Wayne about the date, too. I was hoping that wouldn't come up. But it did. And then I felt bad telling him about it. I did get some Waynage in yesterday and today though :D
So last night was the reunion. Man, going to it just brought me right back for some reason. Perhaps it was because 10 years wasn't long enough for people to grow up. All the cliques pretty much stuck to themselves. Sad. But I won a door prize!! And I am still glad to say I went. They showed the hockey game during the reunion. It would have been great, but the game went into triple over time. They didn't start the music for dancing until that ended. By then, most people had left. Most people looked the same. Lots of people were freshly married. Lots of teachers. And lots of people I didn't really know at all.
Today I went fabric shopping with my best friend, Tara. I think we may have nailed the colour scheme. The bridesmaids will probably have all different coloured dresses in oranges and red (very fall-like). I can't wait to see what styles we end up with!
Tonight, I'm meeting up with some friends for gelato. I hope I don't break K's neck. Right from the get-go when we were talking about getting together, he had something to complain about after each point of planning:
-no, not this city. I hate the drivers. -no, not bubble tea. I'm sick of bubble tea. -no, gotta be earlier because I'm working the next day (like all of us) -why didn't we have it earlier so we could see the sunset?
If he had so many beefs, he should have planned it. Now it's all, "oh, I might go."

I won this basket full of skin care stuff and cosmetics :D I have yet to remove the cellophane to see the goods!!
I love bubble tea...usually. It's just red or green tea flavouried with syrups or powders. It's more popular cold than warm. And you have little chewy things in it. For some, the chewy things are an acquired taste.
