Schemes and Second Dates

Do I blog too much? Yeah, probably. Do I care? Not really. Wes and I thought it would be good to get some of our life recorded and figured this was a good way to do it. So I can just record it here, print it all out and put it in a book to keep. So, I thought I would go on with the dating stories...

So, After our first date, I waited like 2 days for him to call me, but he didn't. I didn't really want to ask him out for the 2nd date, I just wanted him to ask me. So, I called him on the evening of the second day without a phone call (this is step 1 in getting a boy to ask you out). We talked about nothing for a really long time and I kept trying to give him chances to ask me out again and tried to clue him in to the fact I wanted him to ask me out. While I was on the phone with him talking about nothing, I came up with a scheme about a date night that weekend. (The schemeing in my head was a lot like JD on Scrubs...) I decided I would tell him that my friends and I had a date night set up that coming Friday and that I didn't have a date yet. So, would he maybe want to be my date?! He of course said yes. I told him I would get back to him with the details...because of course, there were no details because there was no date night...

Step 2 in my plan to get Wes to go out with me without actually asking him out explicitly...Arrange a date night...
At that time, I was in a performing choir at the LDS Institute called Encore. We met EARLY every morning to practice and/or do morningsides (like firesides, but in the morning). So, when I went to Encore early the morning after the phone call, I talked to my friends about this date night that we needed to have on Friday. No one wanted to spend a lot of money, so we decided I would make Lasagna for dinner (I was famous for this lasagna and it was something I used to bribe my friends into doing stuff for me-like going on imaginary date nights and making them a reality...), other poeple would bring bread, salad and pies. We were also able to arrange cheap tickets to a comedy troupe show that night. So, the date night plan quickly came together, and my imaginary date night became a reality...

That Friday Wes and I went on our second date. We ate good food, saw a funny show and ate some great Marie Calender's pie. The only hitch was that one of the girls that came to the date night was one Wes evidently had a little thing for because he couldn't stop talking to or about her all night...oh well, he got over that eventually...
