Good JDate or Oxymoron?
So, I went on a JDate for the first time in a LONG time on Friday night...appropo since it was Shabbat and all...and had a very nice time. So nice, in fact, that we're having dinner again tonight!
Friday night we went to a fun pizza place, lots of hilarity ensued, including a forgotten wallet, and the night ended up being pretty great. After dinner and a drink we went to Centennial Park for a walk and ended up just sitting on a bench for a long time, talking. He took me home and came in for a cup of tea and more talking. Around 1-ish I ended the evening.
I called him this morning, and he asked if I wanted to go out again tonight. I accepted, but said I wished I could cook us dinner and then invited him over for leftovers from my sister's graduation party last night. He was very excited about that, and said that he was a big fan of the food from Kalamata's, which catered Elizabeth's bash.
Hooray! Hopefully this tall drink of recording engineer will continue to win me over.

Sweet! Datewalks in the park are the best!

Very romantic in the light of the Parthenon.

Yup, it definitely is. Trying not to get too excited, but we had another lovely date last night. We had dinner, then watched Kung Fu Hustle, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Then we talked for a long time.
He said he'd make me a mix cd and come eat more of the ice cream I bought for him (I got his fave flavors for dessert).
Of course we talked about all kind of inappropriate things for a second date, but hey, y'all know me and that's not that unusual. I told him I want to take things slowly, and he was cool with that.
No definite plans for a third date, but we both seemed inclined towards keeping this up!

Did you get some face?

Um, I know I usually kiss and tell, but I'm not telling this time...or at least not yet.

Who am I kidding?! If you call me I'll tell you.

The parthenon is luminescent? And it's in Nashville?

Yes! There is a life-scale replica of the Parthenon in Nashville.

You SO got some face! Congrats!

It's a wonder to behold in person.

tee hee

Not only is there a giant replica Parthenon (Nashville is not only the Music City, but the Athens of the South...because of all the universities and colleges), but a giant replica of Athena inside, which is kind of creepy.

Wait-- Athens of the south?
What about the other one? The one named Athens?

It had high hopes...but no dice.

Been there, too...but never on a date.
