Double Date Weekend

Details on the double date weekend.

I was able to move the youngster to Saturday, so I met the Mich Alumn for Korean BBQ (a not so "scrumptous" place for a vegetarian) on Friday after work. It got off to a rocky start, as he was delayed at work, and I spent an hour perusing Barnes & Nobles, trying to occupy my time. We finally met, and I immediately noticed this bright, shiny gold band on his left ring finger. I tried to dismiss the warning signals in my head, but finally when he mentioned his wife, I freaked out and said, "you never mentioned that you were married." His response? "oh, I didn't think it would matter. You dont' mind do you? I don't always wear my ring." DO I MIND???? YES!!! OF COURSE I MIND. I have never finished dinner so fast. The second we stepped out of the restaurant, I instantly hailed a cab and made a run for it... saying goodby through the lowered window. I hope I never see that joker again! A definite date from hell.

Although, I was a bit skeptical of the thought of dating a youngster (22 year old, when I am 24), my readers were 100% right and I was so pleasantly surprised. Not only did we have a fabulous time discovering the delights of vegetarian sushi, and having fun drinking colorful cocktails, we also had a lovely evening bonding over our European travels, family histories, and silly computer stories from our youth. It was such a fun time, he is adorable, I was sad to see him go home when the date ended, but I hope he had as much fun as me, and we get to hang out again... soon.
