Blurbs

To clarify the past posting: when I’ve gone on dates, one of two things happens. Either 1) the guy pays for me, or 2) we will split the bill down the middle to the penny. My point with the previous post was that even when a guy clearly gets more wine, more food, whatever…that in those instances where we’ve split the bill, a guy has never offered to pay what was fair.

Well, hallelujah praise the Lord, I went on a date today and the guy (gasp) paid! It was a lunch date at Ozumo’s–great restaurant, one of my favorites. The bill was pricey, I’m sure. Sparkling water, appetizers, bento boxes, and two glasses of wine. I was shocked when he grabbed the bill and took care of the whole thing. A total gentleman–I thought they’d gone extinct! I guess there are a few on the endangered list.

Anyhow, wanted to share an email that my friend Deonte sent me. It cracked me up when it came through on my blackberry. I haven’t seen him in a while and we’re trying to make some plans to get together.
