Question the First:
\nthe other day at work, someone I went to school with shows up. I don’t recognize his name at first, but we chat and it’s light-hearted and I tease his kids, find out he’s a single dad, just moved back home and in the end – hand off my number so we can catch up sometime.<\/p>\n
Text mom – and say ??? Do we know this dude? Realize who it is. Oh. dear. Not a fan in jr high\/high school. But it was 20 years ago, so who knows. Did do a quick background check (thanks to mom working where she does) and there are a couple red flags. But…all I said was “gimme a call sometime, we’ll catch up.” He’ll never call.<\/p>\n
He called. <\/p>\n
I didn’t recognize the number, so didn’t answer, and listened to the message. Apologized for waiting a couple days, said to call back. Nothing big, or anything. <\/p>\n
So – do I call him back, and do the old (not)friend catchup thing or not? <\/p>\n
~~~~~~~~
\nQuestion the 2nd:<\/p>\n
On a scale of 1-10, how desperate does one have to be to sign up for a dating site? Is it really acceptable in today’s society? especially as someone [we wont say who] tends to type better than talk anyway? As frightening as that is when one considers her lack of spelling and grammar skills? <\/p>\n
~~~~~~~~~~
\nAnswer:
\nNo, I will not delve into the reasons behind the previous post. Let’s just say: It’s been 6 years, what’s another decade or two? The end.<\/p>\n
~~~~~~~~
\nQuestion the 3rd:
\nHello? Does anyone still even check this thing since I tend to forget it too?<\/p>\n
