When I have a date, I have a date. Yes, I am just getting home. Yes, I spent last night in a hotel. No, I didn't sleep with her. That's right. I am a gentleman. We both had way too much booze in us and it wouldn't have been right. I actually want to date her not just fuck her. I did spend way too much money but I don't regret it. I am happy. I need to be VERY careful this week and luckily I will be out of town and pretty much everything is paid for already. Hotel is done, flight is done, car is done. I get paid Friday and I have two travel days. Be mellow, be good. The NICE part is this next check is ALL MINE. My company has agreed to pay one month rent for me as a bonus. That means that the $2000 I would have paid out of the next check is mine. I can put some money in the savings account, send some to the IRS, and still be on the positive. So all I have to do is make it through the next six days. Time to hide in the house? I mostly stayed in a hotel last night because I was not in any condition to drive 75 miles at midnight. A $100 hotel bill is much smarter than a night in jail and a $5000 DUI.

Back to the day. I got up in the morning and was nervous. I left around 10am and got to her place about 11:30. She told me she would be ready, but nope. I ended up having to TALK WITH HER PARENTS for a 1/2 hour. Awkward? Little bit. Luckily her parents are older so it was like talking to my parents. They are the same age as my dad which made it easier. It was still awkward though. It's always awkward meeting someone's parents. Now on the positive? At least she doesn't have to lie or hide or worry. They have met me, they know I am a nice guy, and they know I am able to be polite. We headed out for lunch around 12ish and had a three hour, two bottles of champagne lunch. That's how you have lunch baby - mac and cheese, cucumber yogurt soup, sliders, almonds, mussels, peach panna cotta, and champagne. Bam. I also gave her the gift I brought back from the park for her. Major points scored. I got her these stuffed Jack Skellington and Zero plushies. She totally squeed when I gave them her. It is so good, it's now her profile pic.

After lunch we did some wine tasting in one of the shops. I ended up bringing home a magnum of a petite verdot which was incredible. I will totally be drinking it. This is not a sit on it bottle, it's a drinker. I just need to find the right occasion. I also brought home a second bottle she liked. It's an 07 Syrah. Also drinkable, but I may let it sit for a year or two. After tasting we tried to go to a downtown concert but unfortunately it was the night before. Oh well. We ended up at another restaurant at the bar. She was starting to get a little floopy at that point so I cut her off and made her eat food. Oh dear god. Hashbrowns the size of her head. I ate something, I honestly can't remember. I know I had bread? But other than that I don't recall eating anything. I ate enough at lunch. I had a couple more drinks and that was the point where I knew I was done. I called my friend who works at Marriott and asked her to book me a room. She was like "am I your wife or kid?". I picked kid because it would look weird for me to check in with another woman if my wife had made me a reservation.

We checked into the hotel around 9ish and yeah we started going at it but I backed off. I knew it was not the right thing to do. I told her that which scored me even more points. We just chilled on the bed and sobered up enough that I could take her home. I got her home around midnight. Unfortunately her fucking parents were STILL awake. Ugh. That was more awkward than the morning. But I survived, got out of there and went back to the hotel. I slept alone and woke up this morning around 7, texted her thank you, and headed home. I have been home a little while. The kid was all smiles this morning because it turned out she had a booty call. Little brat.

There's a cast function tonight, I may go get D and bring her. Let's see how things go.
