*post date update*

first date #19

start the night off and everything was going really well! fun conversations, dude seemed cool, i was having a really good time. talked about stuff we like, which is where the walking dead comes up, and he's all, oh i quit like two episodes in! which of course, i'm like no way! you gotta keep watching!! and he says oh, well we should watch it together! and i say yeah, prolly not tonight! so as the evening continues, he keeps doing these lil time checks and says, there's still time to watch the walking dead! just saying!

ok, then my level of beverage gets to the yeah! sure! let's go watch the walking dead! and it's time to cash out.....

and dude has a total freak out. "what, did you think i was actually going to pay for you? after all those beers? are you crazy?" and i'm like o m g, this is jacked up. mind you it was all on the same tab, his tab, which would imply that he was paying the bill. plus we're at the bar, there are other ppl all around that can hear this.

then he basically laughed in my face and told me i was nuts to think that he was going to pay for me, and maybe he would have gotten me one or two, but you know, there are limits. it was seriously embarrassing. high school embarrassing.

and i do the lil hands in the air, ok ok i got it, and i'm like dude, that's totally fine, i can take care of myself. then it's like he snapped back to non-*kitten* world and was like no, no i'm so sorry, i keep forgetting i'm not in nyc anymore and beers aren't $9. and how could you possibly know... i didn't say anything, i'm so sorry blah blah blah, massive backpedaling

and at that point i'm like No It's Ok, I Can Take Care Of Myself.
and he's like oh no no no, i'm so sorry, i didn't mean it like that, it was just a misunderstanding

and i'm like dude, no actually it wasn't, you just flipped out on me for what? thinking you were a gentleman? how dare i? you ask me out and then get all offended because i assume when you put my drinks on your tab that you're actually paying for them? wtf?

so he keeps apologizing and begging me to just let it go and we can still have a good time together and let's just go back and watch the walking dead, and he wants to play with the dogs and all this crap.
which i'm tipsy, so i'm like sigh...ok.

yes, i'm an idiot.

so we're back at my place and he's playing with the dogs and we're laughing and it's all fun again, and i put in the walking dead. watch an episode and he's all randomly kissy face here and there and i'm like dude, you're missing the show, let's refocus.

go into the second episode and he's doing the same thing, and i keep saying, dude you're missing the show, and then there's this big crazy zombie scene, and he's like yeah, see and this is when i stop watching this *kitten*. yeah not winning any points there. lol. so he keeps trying to be all kissy face, and the episode ends and i'm like alright, time to go!

and he's being all snuggly, or at least trying to be, and i'm like ok, i have to work in the morning, you gotta go. and he's like don't you want me to stay? i can totally stay. and i say dude, no you have to go, you came over, watched the walking dead and now you have to go. and he keeps going, i can stay if you want me to, don't you want me to stay?
and i'm like dude, have a good night.

get him out the front door, lock the dead bolt, then about 15 seconds later i get the following three texts from him:
you're insane.
if i could do it all over i'd pour a drink on you.
*kitten*. You.

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

so i reply: wow, ok. good luck with that.

wtf?, seriously, wtf?

NEXT.

No offense @KylerJaye make me certain my desicion to stay single is the right one. Yuck!

I confess that I'm not a big fan of fish, never have been. But it is high in protein and good fats so in the interest of being an adult I have started to eat the non-fishier tasting ones. I also am getting kinda sick of soup for lunch every day so I decided to try tuna salad on a sandwich. Just in case I couldn't choke it down, I brought some pringles with my lunch today. I was thinking a tuna salad and potato chip sandwich (I guess I'm just not that good at adulting). Well the sandwich wasn't too bad but I still ate the pringles.

Which ones are those? I am also not a fan of fish.

I like tilapia. You can sprinkle it with minced garlic and parmesan, salt & pepper, then fry it till the parmesan gets crispy. I like to add a little bit of spicy seasoning to it, too. And I fry it in garlic-infused olive oil (best thing ever). Anyhow, even though it sounds horribly calorie-dense with the frying, it's really not bad at all. I eat it with a baked potato and some cottage cheese. Tasty!

I think tilapia is pretty mild - it's a fairly inexpensive white fish. In the States, you can get a package of frozen filets for pretty reasonable prices. Might be worth a try?

Tilapia is also good with lemon juice and pepper and baked in foil with mango salsa.

I do like fish. That tilapia sounds good. I also like salmon. One of my favourite ways to cook it is baked in a foil parcel with two TBS of sweet chili sauce brushed over it. Cooks in no time and very tasty!

Just an FYI, I will be sort of MIA today because my work laptop needs a bit of tweaking. It IS a wonderful excuse to not really get anything done though.

Confession: If there had been cake in my house this morning, it would have been breakfast. And then some.

@Susieq_1994 You got your Fitbit? Hooray, did I miss this news, sorry if I did.

As of three hours ago, yes! I yelled about it all over the Fitbit thread, so you must not have been in there.

This is how I eat fish when my other half is grilling something for himself. I just have him toss my packet on the grill for 20 minutes and he's "made me dinner" even though I did all the work.

Thanks! I'm super happy for me too. I really think it will motivate me to move more, stick to my calories, and be overall more active.

I love to wear my fitbit when I mow the lawn with the zero turn. With all the bouncing around it records crazy step counts that I choose to accept as fact. And since they are "fact" I can eat back those exercise calories without guilt.

I dance hard in my car when I am driving, flailing my arms so I get some step count! I totally accept that as fact.
