I have the candles going, dinner is on the stove, the house is smelling wonderful and I have a nice outfit on for a change. The sweats and baggy tops are taking a break and I am all ready.
Got you didn’t I? How did she get a DATE?! She’s the one who doesn’t give a “whatever” about being on a date and is now prepped and ready?
Nope, I don’t have a date. I was just kidding.
My evening will be like any other evening. It will be quiet, pleasant and relaxing. No wondering if the guy is going to like the meal, the conversation and most of all no anxieties about what is going to follow after dinner. I don’t have those worries anymore (maybe one day soon) and I’m NOT missing them either. Life is nice without the “dating niceties” and being on your best behavior.
What am I really doing this evening? Well, my date just walked in. He is wearing his usual furcoat, has the cutest smile on his face and a waddle of a walk that can capture any woman’s heart. It looks like he just had his bath.
HIM: “Ready?”
ME: “More than ready!”
HIM: “Isn’t this so much nicer than any of those losers who used to show up here? It should always be this way.”
Hmm….that is the little Pharoah talking. He thinks he was some kind of Egyptian God in a previous life and knows more than most about relationships anyway. What about Einstein? He thinks he was him too. Remember they have nine lives! God only knows what the rest are! I’ll find out soon enough if things keep going this way.
Coming back to the topic at hand, we are going to play a game of hide and seek. It is his favorite. He hides and I find him. If I do, he gets 10 kisses on his forehead each time. Either way, he wins every time!
It is going to be a wonderful evening with my best buddy in the whole wide world by my side. No ifs. ands, or buts about it! For those of you not in the know, I am talking about Chachi, the cat, my little love and my 24/7 companion who has a mouth on him but I love him to bits!
