yeah. um, prof. eric made me jealous. so i had to take my girlfriend out to dinner and a movie. uh huh. let me tell you what really happened...
originally, i was supposed to attend a birthday party for my ex. she turned 30 on thursday. but i made no reply to the evite i was sent for said party, so i was still debating about whether or not to go. jozjozjoz let me know as she was walking out the door thursday morning that she had the evening free and was looking forward to spending some time together. like an ass, i said i was going to my ex's birthday party, but would be home relatively early.
i went to work and told a co-worker about the party and that i was in a quandry about what to do--go to the party to help an ex celebrate a significant birthday, or spend the evening with joz? he looked at me, thumped me on the head, and said, "yo, dumbass, your girlfriend wants to spend time with you? what do you owe your ex? you're not with her anymore for a reason, right? what are you thinking?" i paraphrase, of course, my friend is a much more learned man than to start a sentence with "yo."
suffice it to say, i felt rather sheepish at my lack of judgement, and i called jozjozjoz to ask her to spend a lovely evening with me. hence, the date.
i got off work a little late, so we had to postpone dinner til after the movie. since i asked her out, she got to choose the movie and the location of dinner. we saw calendar girls (which was surprisingly good) and had dinner at a diner in little tokyo called suehiro.
uneventful, yes, but really, there was no jealousy involved. sorry to disappoint.

Ok, now look Shannon... lets not go there. i think we all know that my services are as cracked up as they appear to be. There is nothing, un-cracked-up about it! i would go there or you just might lose your plase on my list... hmmm.
