I'm Not Even a Betting Woman Yet, Here I Am

Yeah, I lost another friendly wager. Well, this post is about my best date. I won't post the name of who it was with. If you guess right or wrong, the answer is No. I don't like my future thinking they have compete with the past. Also, I just don't want to say who it was with.

So, one Friday night a guy I was friendly with called while some friends & I were taking turns reading aloud a Zane book. He said he wanted to take me out the next afternoon. I was available, so I said yes. I asked where were we going for outfit purposes. He told me to dress casual. He arrived on time the next day. That was big because he was a tardy person. We arrived at a popular, at the time chain bookstore. So, we looked at through the shelves. I picked out a book and sat down. He came over with the same book.

We took turns reading the first two chapters to one another. Then he took my book, went back to the shelf to return one copy. He paid for the other copy, handed me the bag and said "Pick a place for lunch".

I chose Jason's Deli. We ordered and sat down. Before the food arrived he went back the car to get the book. During lunch, we read a couple more chapters of the book.

And that was My best date as of this day of me typing this post. It was creatively simple & sweet. It's no secret I Love reading. But it's not just the act of buying a book. Anyone can buy me a book. Other people have bought me books before. I love that. But this showed he paid attention to something I enjoyed. And I really found that book interesting. He also saw about working on a friendship foundation also by doing something I did with some friends. Weirdly enough, after that Zane book was read, my friends & I didn't read aloud with each other again. I haven't had a date like that again either.

Yep, I still own that book. It's one of my favorites. (I think I mentioned that in a post before) That's how good it is to me. I haven't even bought it in e-book version. When I re-read it, it's this original book I pick up. I might buy it to put it on my Kindle, one day. But until then...
Consider this a recommendation to go read it.
