Merry Christmas!!! I hope that everyone had an amazing holiday filled with holiday cheer and good people.
To me one of the best things about the holidays is getting together with old friends. My friend Elizabeth is fantastic at organizing group events. She really brings people together.
A few days before Christmas, Elizabeth organized a group reunion. Some old friends were home for the holidays and it had been awhile. They are Elizabeth's friends from way back in elementary school and I met them all in high school. They are also all male. One of the boys chose the restaurant/bar Tilted Kilt.
The Tilted Kilt is more like a breastraunt where all the servers are female and wearing a short skirt and tiny almost a shirt that is lowcut and middrift showing. A few of the servers are hot. As a chick I can appreciate that a few of the girls are gorgouse.......but others are not. The beer is pretty good.
It was great to catch up with everyone. We also talked quite a bit about dating.....such an interesting topic to me. It was great to hear their boy perspective. One of the guys openly admitted to online dating using OKCupid. He also told me he reads my blog......I LOVE IT!!!! So I think because he knows I do he felt more open to admitting it.
We shared first date stories. He shared a hilarious story that I am going to share it with you and I hope he doesn't mind. I don't think he will.
Just so you know, he is an attractive man (I think he is 1/2 japanese and 1/2 white) and athletic. He has a very friendly smile and is easy going. He has a somewhat odd schedule with work which I am sure makes dating harder. He is also multilingual. He speaks quite a few different languages. He shared a hilarious story about using the language to pick up girls. I find it quite brilliant and creative. While in a bar in a different country he would approach an attractive girl. He would tell her that his friend had taught him to say a phrase in the native language such as, "you are very beautiful" or "I would like to order a beer please". He would then say a totally different funny yet inappropriate phrase in the native language. I wish I could remember the translation. Sorry. The girls would giggle and then correct him thus breaking the ice with a cute chick. BRILLIANT.
Ohh yeah. Today my practice of never saving phone numbers in my phone bit me in the ass. I got a nice friendly text wishing me a Merry Christmas. The text even specifically used my name and it was spelled correctly. I recognized the number and past text messages. It was from August. I can remember so many details about August but I could not remember his name. Eeks.
What is that vitamin for you memory? I think I should start taking it. I hope I remember to take it.
Anyways, Merry Christmas!!!
The language thing is totally genius. Or it could just be because he's hot and girls would talk to him anyways. Lol I appreciated the enlightenment on how I should be the most popular girl in the bar since I don't like dancing.I'm going to put that one to the test in San Diego for NYE.
ReplyDeleteYou are super dumb for not saving numbers. Its always good to save them, along with username. For example, December is saved as "amish bryan." It paints the picture when you're a serial dater and can't remember who you've gone out with!
