so last night i had another date. it was a dinner and movie thing, which seems like the traditional date, so i wanted to do it right. what else is part of a traditional date? you get the girl flowers. only, getting a lot of flowers doesn't seem right at this point. and then what of flower symbolism? ah! it's enough to drive me crazy. but i decided to go and get something because i want to do this right. i don't want to fuck up again like i did with my ex-. thus, i opted for a single red rose with some baby's breath. it looked very nice if i do say so myself. but then i felt real awkward. maybe this is too much, coming on too strong. does this rose say "i love you"? that's not what i'm going for, sorry, not there yet. i just started to think about this too much because i'm a chick and that's what chicks do.

we went to dinner and then watched "district 9". the promotion for this movie was really strong and intriguing, which is why i wanted to see it. it was a good movie but it seemed too long. i did like all the setup but i can't help but wonder if they could've cut a lot of that out and put it as a bonus feature on the dvd. or maybe had it air as a special on tv and then one goes out to see the movie. that's the problem about painting another world, sometimes too much time is spent on the setup. this is alright in books. in fact i love it in "1984". however, sometimes it can be a real drag. *cough cough* anne rice *cough cough*

somewhere between the movie and sleep i finally got to live out my portishead fantasy, well perhaps fantasy is not the right word but i've always wanted a girl who dug portishead, as i think i've blogged before. this one likes portishead, yea! anyway, the date expanded into the next day of hanging out and we went to play miniature golf. not planned, that's just how things went. we had a real good time playing golf and games and it was just nice. too nice that i didn't want it to end, especially when i started to think about going home and trying to find parking. so that's when the niceness ended and things got weird because i had to leave, can't stay there all weekend! so i went from good to weird and now i wonder what's next. oh yeah, and i'm clumsy. fell down while playing mini golf. totally hilarious but i played it off hahahahaaa
