{late poster…there’s never any cake left either…}
I’m glad the OP called. When two people hit it off at first, its often the timbre of each others voices that sets the tone of attraction (yes there are 4 other senses, but old-fogey that I am, I’m assuming taste and touch are for later dates). You think about what you want to say. You make notes of restaurants that are nice that you’d like to show her (and what days they are open/closed). You map out 10 or 12 fun things to do as possible suggestions that are in season and in your price range…and you have your notes writen on a note pad in front of you. Yes, you do your homework…and you do it because your heart tells you that she’s worth it.
Finally, the time arrives. She’s not at work, not at dinner, its less than 72 hours after you got the number, but more than 24. The window of opportunity is here, and the D.I. in your head says “We’re over the target zone. Jump, Jump, Jump!”
You grit your teeth, you face your fears, you beg Og not to be humiliated/ rejected…and you dial her number.
And then you hear her voice.
And suddenly, you remember why you risked ulcers and humiliation to make this phone call…
