yesterday (sunday 10 may 2009) i went on a date w/ a bright, interesting, and adorable young woman. and today, i'm not sure how to write this recap...
i picked her up @ 1330 and we went down to the arena district to watch the new star trek movie. we walked to the north market and had some ice cream for desert @ a local boutique shop. from there we walked through the short north and talked. ended up going into surly girl for lunch, since we were already all the way at the north end of the short north. we talked during lunch. walked back towards the arena district. walked through the park on the way back to the car.
nearly to the car i finally got he nerve up to put an arm around her & on her back.... told her i really enjoyed spending the day w/ her and that we'll have to do it again. she said yeah... i quickly added "if you're interested, that is" to which she responded "it's worth giving it another try" (or something pretty damn close to that).
i didn't know how to take that. she said she's just slow to warm up to people. D told me not to worry about it too much and not to read too much into it... i'm trying to take that to heart.
we may go to a concert on tuesday... we may go to one of the parks to take some pictures on thursday....
her eyes are so bright and curious, searching... i wish i really knew what other people saw when they looked at me - i've never found the mirror too impressive... what does she see? what did my beautiful co-worker see? what did.... you get the point.
the date started and ended w/ a set of hugs. i guess they served as bookends for the day.
