Saturday Night Date

Alright so, I got my first official date. Ok, yeah, sure I went to preference with Neil, but I asked, so I don't really count that one. Ok, this one was a little iffy too, but I count it anyway. My roommate, Clarissa, has this guy best friend (everyone thinks they are dating, but they aren't attracted to each other at all) who I've been getting to know better recently. His name is Tim. Anyway, Tim and Clarissa hang out like 24/7 usually, but Clarissa had a second date with Andy from our FHE group on Saturday night, so Tim wanted to hang out with me. We decided to go to the dollar theater to see City of Ember, which I saw the night before for free at the Varsity theater, but I went again to spend time with Tim. Plus, it's a way good movie (I definitely recommend you go rent it when it comes out- but if you've read the book, prepare to be disappointed, like usual).

I wasn't sure if he was planning on paying or not, so I asked if this was a "date," and he said he was planning on paying so why not? We left at like 7:15 and walked to the theater. We got there just in time for the movie, and had to sit up front in like the 3rd row, but it wasn't bad. Tim bought us popcorn, too. Yum! Afterward we just walked straight home, almost killing ourselves on the black ice several times, but we survived. :)

We got back, and were planning on meeting up with Clarissa and Andy to watch a movie that Clarissa and some friends had made in high school. While we were waiting for them, we popped in The Princess Bride, which I didn't know Tim hadn't seen before (it's a sin!), but Clarissa and Andy got back before it was too far in the movie, so we decided watching it would be our second date. LOL.

We watched the movie at Andy and Neil's apartment with them, and then we headed home pretty soon after. I didn't realize Tim was going to his apartment, so I didn't have a chance to give him a hug for the date, but whatever. He knows I had a good time. :)
