And So It Begins With A Lazy Drawl

Like I've said once before I have started on-line dating again through eharmony. Well, tomorrow evening I have my first, first date with the guy with the lazy drawl. We've been talking for a few weeks now, sometimes by voice sometimes by text due to both of our crazy schedules. He seems funny which is important to me and he has a job (another important factor - he's a former chef and now manages a chain restaurant). Plus, he's got a lazy southern drawl since he's from Missouri. For some reason a guy with an accent is sexy to me. So we were talking on Saturday and when I mentioned that I didn't have any visits today, Monday, he asked me out. So last night he called about going to opening day at Camden Yards today which I immediately said yes to (no thought to the logistical aspect, it's baseball afterall) so he was going to go and see if he could buy tickets this morning. However, the logistics of it all came to be in the middle of the night (aka how/where do you meet a stranger at the ball park on opening day when you don't have the tickets, is it safe to drive with someone you don't know, can I walk all that way from the parking lot to stadium (at least a mile) with my ankle, can I walk lot of stairs with my ankle and without a railing without looking like an ass? Then I woke up this morning and it's cold with a horrible misty rain (that picks up then goes back to mix). Not baseball weather so I called to see if he bought tickets yet. Luckily he was still lying in bed thinking about the horrible rain and the un-fun factor of going to the baseball game in it. So we reschedule for tonight going to Dave and Busters (www.daveandbusters.com) a restaurant/game place.
Wish me luck and like I said, so the dating game begins with a lazy drawl

My idea of a great first date is a sporting event...so I would have gone even if neither one of you went. I am keeping my fingers crossed..but if it doesn't work out, we can write that book together about bad dates and strange men!
