I don't know how I got tricked into being a part of this "project". I think most of the credit goes to H because of her reading habits. Then on to J and K for entertaining the idea further. I just happened to be the closest person they could pull in.
That aside, if this was a competition... so far I'm winning
Date 1 of 22
I went to an institute dance a few weeks ago out of lack for something to do. It was super awkward at first... there was about 20 people and I knew that 10 of those people were married couples. After about an hour it had picked up to be a lot more fun. Date number one was a friend of a friend, I think we danced one on one once.
Fast forward a week, the mutual friend told me that his friend wanted my number. I gave him a blank stare. He repeated the name and I continued to stare at him "I'm sorry, I honestly don't remember him. But sure, you can give him my number. That's fine."
The following week I got a phone call that ultimately ended in Voicemail (I think the last four dates I've been on have been asked through voicemail... usually it results in a long game of phone tag) In the voicemail I still couldn't understand the guy's first name (the last name could be heard loud and clear... from there Facebook was a dear friend in solving the rest)
For our date we went to the Latter Day Voices Christmas Choir Concert. The concert was sooo good! When we got there my date got asked to say the closing prayer. Poor guy was probably a nervous wreck the rest of the concert!
After the choir we had 30 minutes of time until I had to be to my next activity for the night (don't worry. it was just another date... with my sister... as we watched our cousin perform). In that amount of time we went to Starbucks for hot chocolate. I didn't know you could add all sorts of flavors to it! I got hazelnut and it was divine. We talked a bit and then left. There wasn't much time to get to know him well, but the date was short and sweet and I enjoyed it.
Success for date 1 of 22.
