I went to lady friend's house on Wednesday after work. She told me that she had a special drink to help celebrate some things that have happened at work. Turns out, it was my favorite beer. I think I may have mentioned the brand once or twice. She definitely pays attention!
Well tomorrow is the big night out with the lady friend.
I actually cancelled on her two days ago because, wouldn't you know it, I've had some car overheating issues. I just can't afford to have it looked at right now. So, she offered to drive.
But....
She called me last night and told me that she broke down and had to be towed. Her car is currently in the shop and they promised her that if they can't get it fixed by noon tomorrow, they will give her a loaner car. So as of right now....
It is still on.
I told her that I would put gas in the car since she is driving.
I could have almost predicted this. As soon as I DO find someone to spend time with, I have car issues....not the way I wanted it to go. I'm just glad that she was understanding.
So, right now the plan is for me to drive to her place at 4:00 tomorrow. From there, she will drive to the light festival and then we will head to dinner afterwards. We picked a nice Chinese restaurant that I went to every once in a while in the distant past. She has never been there.
It seems like we have had to jump through some serious hoops just for this one "date/non date."
Wish us luck please.....
Scared/nervous/anxious.
I will post an update.
Don't know what I'm going to do about my car....
