Is this a date?

I am being taken out tomorrow night--to a gun range! I told him I have never fired a gun and he was horrified. I figured that since he's single, straight, and between the ages of 18 and 50, it warranted new clothes. Here's hoping he's not crazy...:lol:

So we still don't know if he's a quick shot or not? :biggrin:

Seriously though I hope it works out so we can all start complaining about the new sickeningly sweet over the top "in a relationship" NoHall.
Now he has to prove that he's worth the trouble, poor sap. :cool:

Not sure about the shooting yet...he mentioned it again yesterday, but I'm just answering stuff like that (and sentences that end with "when you come over to my house") with a Mona Lisa. I'm no good at these little games, but I noticed that since I'm back on crutches and giving him the stiff arm, he is much more likely to show up at my elbow every 5 minutes. Very cute.

You know what I say......a friend will help you move.....a best friend will help you move the body....:biggrin:

:funn:

In deference to Kitty and Scooty's advice, I'm still not dishing out details, but I'll give a brief update:

First, the gun range incident has been fully explained, vindicated, redeemed, etc. Just trust me on that.

Yesterday was the last day of our show (You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown) and I went back today to pick up the keyboard. He told me last night that he had a gift for me. I figured it was something to do with Peanuts--a Snoopy coffee mug, a poster from the show, or something like that. Instead, he gave me a book. He knows I like old, used books, so he got me a book of English tragedies...It's a first edition, and the date is MDCCLXXX, if you want to do the math...:biggrin:

Maybe not as romantic as jewelry, but it's a gift that tells me that somebody likes me a LOT! :blush: He's a keeper...

He had to re-teach me, too: It's 1780.

That would be 1780 I think!

Good thoughtful gift - he gets definite points for that one!

Keep giving him the Mona Lisa for a while more though, don't think he is over the divorce/completely ready for a relationship.

Dead on, but the Mona Lisa is outdated and unnecessary already. (When I pulled that, he followed me around like a puppy.) He is a spectacular friend right now, and I haven't had such a loving, unselfish, attentive guy friend in many years. I'm keeping him just for that!

Not sure when, but pretty sure we won't be calling anything a "date" for a while...:blush:

I'm going to inventory my books now that I know you have an old book fetish. My first edition Lord of the Rings better still be there.

Don't worry, dear. I don't have a fetish for stolen ones. I like the ones that came to me in their own unique ways.
