The End of the Dating Drought.

So folks. The drought has ended. I had a first date.

If there is any doubt I've changed my life let me just lay this out for you. It was a totally blind date. We went to a rock climbing gym. Rock climbing on a first date means you can't wear a cute dress. I went on a first date in pretty darn tight workout clothes. Yes, I looked cute but there was no hiding my butt. Speaking of butts...mine was in a harness, high in the air. My date was on the ground making sure I didn't plunge to my death. This meant when I slipped off the wall trying to swing my foot onto a ledge, I was hanging in a harness, high in the air, suspended by my butt, above my date's head.

I've never been rock climbing and had been wanting to go. So...why not have a first on a first? Although I had a bit of a freak out after committing to it, I went, had fun, challenged myself and didn't get annoyed/angry like I normally do when doing new things I'm concerned I won't be able to complete. It was like I actually had confidence in myself and my physical ability. It was like I was an athlete! :)

After hanging above my date in a harness and witnessing his cat-like abilities on the wall, we acquired a third leg to the date and went for dinner. Yeah, you caught that. My first date, wearing tight workout clothes when I first met the date, hanging in the air above his head, had a third person join us for dinner. Who does this happen to? Who does this happen to and they leave the date thinking it was ok?? I guess I do.

There won't be another date with that particular guy but I got the first first out of the way. And hey, I got a free rock climbing lesson out of it.

Oh new and exciting life. You bring twists and turns but I like you.
