Everwhere is walking distance if you have the time

Sigh... Message this morning from OKC (OKCupid girl). She said she had to pick her sick son up from school and she had to reschedule.

This reminded me of my December fling. We were going to go out to dinner. She messaged me that morning claiming a family thing. We were going to reschedule then she fessed up, she'd starting dating someone.

Of course, a month later she got back in touch with me, it wasn't working out with the other guy, we did go out, she turned out crazy and ...

OKC and I have rescheduled for next Thursday though so I still think the date will happen.

Still, I feel like a lot of air was let out of my balloon -- so to speak.

Here's the exchange. Do you think I sound too eager.

OKC: I hate to do this, but I just got a call from the school and my son is sick. I have to go pick him up since his dad can't. Can we reschedule??

CTH: I am disappointed, but I understand. I am usually the one who has to pick up the girls when they are sick. I hope he hasn't caught something too serious.

Definitely I'd like to reschedule. I'm really looking forward to meeting you. Do you want to just push it until next Thursday or would a day earlier in the week work better?

OKC: Sorry again, but thanks for understanding.

Next Thursday works for me. Same time and place?
