LOL, Mr. Adorable and a few margaritas.....
Friday night date! Woo Hoo!! Much better than the 3o minute mall bench meeting. Hot pink sweater and high heeled boots on, hair and makeup done, babysitting by grandma secured.... all ready to go and meet Mr. Adorable. I direct him to the restaurant that my adopted Mexican son LOL's family owns. They know me. They will keep an eye on me. LOL will make me killer margaritas with Patron. I will be in my comfort zone there whether or not the date goes smoothly. Mr. Adorable arrives first and sends me a text to let me know he's there and will meet me outside. I arrive, Mr. Adorable meets me at my car with a nice hug and we make our way inside. LOL already knows I am coming. He's just as excited as I am about this date. He liked Mr. Adorable when he met him for those 5 seconds in the mall. He is waiting for us as we walk in.... We decide to start at the bar (like that was a hard decision). We both order our margaritas and with chips and salsa abound we are now ready to have our date. Having a date can be quite stressful if the chemistry isn't there. I remember this from my dinner with SAFE. It wasn't that the person himself was horrible, it was just that small element of physical attraction that was missing. With Mr. Adorable things are different. I notice immediately that his shirt is from Abercrombie and although I comment on it he appears to be unimpressed by the name (suuuuuure). He does have on his Tiffany corded necklace thing and I am not shy when I reach out and take a closer look. Margarita 2 comes along with an appetizer supplied by LOL. I know when LOL is mixing drinks I should only have 2. Ever. I make a mental note of this but didn't fail to notice that he left the shaker on the bar so I could refill my glass when it gets low. Mr. Adorable is easy to talk to. He makes sure that when he turned to talk to me his knee would touch mine and he seemed perfectly at ease to leave it there. Ahhh, nice. Margarita 3 (did I mention that I should never have more than 2?) We order a dinner to share since neither one of us is starving. I let him choose and he picks (unknowingly) my favorite dish on the menu. Happy me :) Dinner, drinks, conversation - so far a great date! We laugh like we are old friends. We talk about a frillion different topics. We are the only ones left at the bar, in the restaurant, and I look up to find the entire staff sitting at the other end of the bar waiting for us to be done so they can go home. I politely excuse myself so I can go take a peeksy in the mirror and I leave LOL and Mr. Adorable to chat. I am pleasantly surprised that after 3 margaritas I still look damn good! A slight touch up of the lip gloss and I am on my way back to Mr. Adorable. I like the way he smiles when I walk across the room. He pays the bill (I do offer to contribute but Mr. Adorable insists on paying). We walk outside and head to my car. I open the door, toss my bag and keys on the front seat and turn to say goodbye. I know he's going to kiss me. I know I am going to allow this. I have a mint in my mouth.... So the goodbye kiss(es). Ahhhh. Remember when you kissed someone for the first time? Well, that's exactly what it was like :) He dresses well. He is educated and well versed. He smells amazing. He is a great kisser. I am thinking that this online dating thing might not be so bad after all!! He is only the second guy I've met and I'm thinking I might be okay with him being the last (at least for this chapter of the blog.....) He asks me to call him when I get home so he knows I got in safely. (just to clarify, the 3rd margarita did not push me over the edge and I am not intoxicated in any way, shape or form. I am a safe mommy driver). I opt for a short and sweet text (my mom was here and she tends to be a lil nosy...) I let him know I'm in safe and sound and thank him for a wonderful evening. I get in bed, log onto my FB account and KA-POW it's LOL telling me that he saw us kiss in the parking lot (oooohhhhhh big deal!!!) and that he thinks we are very cute together. He informs me that when I was in the ladies room dabbing pink sparkly gloss on my lips that Mr. Adorable was telling him that he thinks I'm gorgeous (really?) and some other stuff that was lost on me after the gorgeous comment. I drift off smiling.....must get up early and go to work.
