She emailed me back!!!
Her DSL was on the fritz, so she wasn't able to access her messages.
However, instead of a date, she wants to get together with the group again and go bowling. Is she just extremely shy or does she just not dig me? I guess I have to take things really slowly with a person like this.

She's probably seeking protection from the group. (You never know what people are expecting these days when it comes to dating.)
I'm feeling better! The drugs mixed with Mac&Cheese must be working! Time to hit the bars! Life is too short!

The blind date turned into a double date with her friends (wife, husband, child). I'm glad it worked out that way. The conversation flows a lot better with more mouths.
Here's the breakdown:
- met them at Rain Forest Cafe in Downtown Disney
- she's from Japan and has lived here for the past 14 years
- HEAVY Japanese accent (I guess she doesn't speak...

I think:
a) She is just culturally submissive.
b) you should only write, "enjoyed the day with you and..., looking forward to seeing you again. I will give you a call.
c) call, do not email to make plans
d) bring a condom.

How'd the date go?!
The blind date lady caught the flu, so the thing has been postponed until Saturday. I'm still having my doubts. What if she doesn't like me? I'm pretty corny. We are going to an Italian place to have dinner. Should I not order the pizza (single size)? Will that make me look too immature? Should I order some fancy pasta dish instead? What kind of...

You know, if you're the type that likes pizza, it's best to just get these things out of the way right off and not make any false impressions that would get in the way later on.
Blind date next Saturday! I'm really nervous. At least there will be two other couples there. What do I talk about?

Don't forget also to complain that your herpes medication is making you really drowsy.

My good friend's dog passed away today. She called me in pain and in tears. She had the little guy for fifteen years. I told her the usual, but I really wish I could have done more. No one should ever have to suffer like that! Don't you wish sometimes that you could absorb someone's pain? I called her back just now, but I think...

I gave all three of my pets the biggest hugs ever just now.

I got a nail in my tire for the second time in six months! Unbelievable! Poor little tire. I know exactly how it feels. Whenever I'm just moving along, doing my job, I get jabbed by something pointy that was meant to hold pieces of wood together. You know what I mean? It's a tough world. I need some candy.

Hi.
I could use a hug.

Have you ever felt like you didn't belong? I found this little snippet on the story, "The Ugly Duckling."
"The children declare that he is the most beautiful swan of them all, yet he is not proud, for a good heart is never proud. Because of all that he suffered he now appreciates his happiness so much more."
"Andersen was asked about whether he would...

I think the outside beauty thing is a metaphor for "being different" and the moral of the story is that difference is true beauty...
well, at least I hope that's the message or I'll have to chock the story up to another childhood disappointment (first the Runaway Pancake gets eaten in the end, then superficial propaganda hiding in duck stories: where will it end>??!!!)

I'm off for the next two weeks! Time to vegetate.
I almost didn't get all my presents out in time, but luckily my friend let me use her Amazon shipping thing.
Have a Merry Christmas, dammit!
