I was invited by my cousin to a BBQ on Friday. It was a "singles" gig. And I dragged my friend Lisa with me. We get there, and it is just a small little "get-together". No biggie. But there was a guy there, that was charming. I found myself intrigued with him. His name is Dave, and he last name will remain nameless to protect the guilty. (ah! you see where this post is going now, huh!?)
He was funny and could keep up with conversation. He wasn't bad looking and put his heart and soul into the serious game of Rock Band. So when my cousin said that Dave wanted my number, I got a little excited on the inside. "Of course give him my number!" I had visions of going to see the Pink Floyd light show and laughing and the absurdity of it.
So when I got the call from Dave, I answered with a smile. He was charming, and nice and lovely. And the conversation went like this
Dave: So, I really liked meeting you the other night. I had a good time chatting with you.
Me: Yeah, it isn't every day that someone can keep up with the junk I can throw at them. And you handled it like a champ!
*insert slightly cheeky comment here*
Dave: So I want to get to the point of me calling you
(this is where I thought he was going to ask me out... hahah... yeah.)
Dave: I am a part of a company called NuSkin. Have you heard of it?

chapter 15 in the dating book that I am currently writing. A pyramid scheme. Charming. I like those kind of dates.

Seriously? Seriously. Wow. WOW. Someone needs to be super punched.....
Could be worse- it could have been Mary Kay or Avon?
Oh wow! That's a pretty funny story. I want to hear the part where you had to turn his pyramid scheme offer down. I bet it's golden.
Oh Tara! You could seriously write a book and it would be a best seller. What was he thinking?
And your trip to the California coast...I'm a little biased but I think it's one of the greatest places on the planet. ;) And what's with this tattoo?
Thanks for the birthday wishes! I was thinking of you yesterday since it marked 16 years since my mom passed away. I only have a few friends that share that common bond of experiencing the loss of a mother.
Okay, my sides hurt, oh please. please write a book! It can be titled: People are funny cuz their stupid.
You make me laugh girl!
