It was the most uncomfortable night of my life.
Oh...The first day back is always the toughest Harry.
We only had one date. How do you know it's not going to get worse?
How much worse can it get than finishing dinner having him reaching over pull a hair out of my head and starts flossing with it at the table?
We're talking dream dates compared to my horror. It started out fine, she's a very nice person, and we're sitting and we're talking at this Ethiopian restaurant that she wanted to go to. And I was making jokes, you know like, "Hey I didn't know that they had food in Ethiopia? This will be a quick meal. I'll order two empty plates and we can leave."
[Sally laughs]
Yeah, nothing from her not even a smile. So I down shift into small talk, and I asked her where she went to school and she said. "Michigan State", and this reminds me of Helen. All of a sudden I'm in the middle of this mess of an anxiety attack, my heart is beating like a wild man and I start sweating like a pig.
Helen went to Michigan State?
No she went to Northwestern, but they're both Big-Ten schools. I got so upset I had to leave the restaurant.
Harry I think this takes a long time. It might be months before we're actually able to enjoy going out with someone new.
Yah...
And maybe longer, before we're actually able to go to bed with someone new.
Oh I went to bed with her.
You went to bed with her?
Sure.
Oh.
