I've told y'all about how I met Joyce in the store, and about how she asked for my number in the most awkward way I've ever been asked for it. She called a few days later. And straight out asked me out to dinner. I thought "why not?", and said "I'd like to". We agreed … Continue reading Dinner with Joyce (Why not?)

Joyce
As Monica has no time for social media other than her own, and she doesn’t even know that I’ve started this blog, I reckon I’m pretty safe writing about things you ordinarily wouldn’t want your girlfriend to know about. Like Joyce. It’s just a fact of life that I get hit on a lot at … Continue reading Joyce
The Valentine’s Day Massacre Part 5 (and last)

The Valentine’s Day Massacre Part 3
I promised that the evening would get even worse. Here's how it did. We finally got a table, and at least Monica didn’t get pissed off about where it was. She’s done that. I don’t know who she tries to impress, but having to change tables makes me want to crawl under one. It’s a … Continue reading The Valentine’s Day Massacre Part 3

The Valentine’s Day Massacre: Part 1
Ok, so it’s Valentine’s Day. The worst day of the year for any dude with a girlfriend. I remember I broke up with one of my girlfriends in college because I didn’t do enough for her on February 14. It was all my fault, of course. Past couple of years haven’t been so bad – … Continue reading The Valentine’s Day Massacre: Part 1
