I'm not really sure WHY I let my friends set me up?
Part of me thinks it's funny and interesting... part of me just can't say no.
So I say yes to go on a blind date with a coworkers friend.
We talked on the phone a few times before and he was pretty nice. He listened to me and after a few phone calls, asked if I'd like to go to dinner at the place I had said was my favorite place to eat. After dating a few rude guys, this seemed pretty nice to me.
So I get ready and I think I look nice. I have on a black dress and red shoes and pretty jewelry. I start walking to the metro and was crossing the entrance to a parking lot. I have the green walk person so I go...
All of a sudden a car comes out of NO WHERE... NO WHERE and swerves not to hit me.
He got so close my DRESS BLEW UP! Seriously, the people who were on the other side of the street saw my ass!
It doesn't even register what happens so I keep walking as the asshole goes into the parking lot. The people on the other side start making comments...
"OH NO HE DIDNT!"
"That F***** almost hit you!"
So then I start to get pissed... Hell yeah he did!
Then all of a sudden a cop pulls in and gives the guy a ticket. Serves his ass right!
So anyway, you would think that would show me it would be a bad start... Nope, I continue on with the night.
We are supposed to meet at 7:30 but the metro was early so I got there around 7:15. No big, wait at the bar, get a beer.
Soon it's 7:30... I think maybe his train was late....
Soon it's 7:45 and I walk to the front to look.
NO ONE.... All of a sudden is 8:00. I start calling my friends obviously asking if it's rude to leave!
WHAT! Why am I asking if it's rude to leave! For real? This guys 45 minutes late.
So I start to leave and I walk up the hill tot he metro and there is he standing on the other side of the outside of the place.
He had been there since 7:15.
Sooooo we have dinner. It's okay... I'm not attracted to him.....
But it was a funny night anyway.
I a) almost died b) waited 45 minutes and c) felt bad leaving after I thought he was late!
When will I learn?!

well... the crappy things that happened werent his fault, so I hope you dont count the marks against him for that.
You're blog is so colorful! I love it! :) I've had experiences like that before, where I thought someone was late, but I was at the wrong place, lol.
What a night! I definitely enjoyed living vicariously through your blog. I'm going to add you on my blog roll!
Atleast he didn't stand you up. I once had a guy tell me he fell asleep before our date and completely stood me up! F*CKER! Never went out with him again.
