Take A Number

I met JW at Friday's....heeheehee....on Friday. I haven't seen him in like two months and we had a lot to talk & laugh about. Friday's has gone through a renovation....for the better? I am not sure. We got there to ener the PACKED building and went up to the host desk. They asked "How Many?" I said "2" and they printed up a ticket. On this ticket was a number.....72. I look around, wondering why I had this number, and I see these red, flashy boards with numbers. Umm...is this a deli? Nope. It's their new system. No taking names. No handing you a pager/buzzer thingy. Youwatch for yoru number to pop up on the board & then proceed to the desk. Weird. And they were on #40 when we got our number.

We were seated realtively fast. 20 minutes was all it took. Not bad! JW & I shared lack of dating stories, I got yelled at since he was my cover for going out with Gameboy, and I showed him pcitures from Gettysburg & Cleveland.

He whined.......a lot......about not having a girl so I suggested he try to talk to the waitress, Jasmine, since he kept drooling over her. He did what I think was flirting, but left with me & no number.

JW did treat to dinner, which was totally unexpected. I do not hang out with him so taht he'll pay & pointed this out. He said I have to pay for coffee next time we get together. That's a fair trade for me.
