A think tank in the midst of cogitation
I overheard this conversation between two early 20-something women while hiking down Runyon Canyon and wanted to share. (Editor’s note: Though it may seem unlikely, I have neither embellished or paraphrased.)
“Some guy is taking me out tonight.”
“What’s this guy’s name?”
“I don’t know.”
“How do you, like, not know his name?”
“I totally just talk to my dates until I figure out their names and then I put them in the customer file.”
[no segue, but the same girl is speaking]
“When I, like, totally get famous, there will probably be a photo of me, like, picking my butt and I, like, totally won’t care. I’ll be like, yeah, this is totally me.”
“Totally.”
THE END (Thank God)

In my experience the flip side of said conversation is learning too too much about an individual, via dating site e-mail/IM, that you never ever want a “first meet.” Missed opportunities? Second guessing can drive ya nuts!!
