Date

Today has been so great. It's been "toasty" out as Meg would put it. I spent most of the day talking to friends and laying out on the lawn. The senior illustration show was good and after that Meghan and I went on a fantastic date tonight. I wore the one good shirt I have and she wore a warm white dress with a cool dark jacket.We took a cab from a very friendly Indian cab driver who barely spoke a word of English to West Hartford Center. There we wandered around trying to find a restaurant to go to. We stumbled across Arugulas where James, a senior painting major, who was a waiter there waved to me. Meg and I decided to give the place a try. It was packed so we had to wait a long time so we wandered down to Barns and Noble where I started to read a passage out loud from Best Erotica of 2007, well I did until I realized an older woman and her little boy were on the same isle as us. On our way back to the restaurant I accidentally punched a girl in the butt while flailing my arms around telling Meg a story. It was pretty funny. We kept moving along like it didn't happen. When we finally did eat we had delicious Mediterranean food. James was a great waiter. Conversation was great too. Meg was smiling so much. She had a joy on her face I hadn't seen for a long time. It was a great night.
We both really needed it.
