On dating
Anyone else having a Case of The Mondays*?

*: yes I mean hung over at work, sorry Aunt Una, I'm having so much coffee I am doing all work don't worry haha I'm great no really super super fine.

[Warded to Family/Clan]

Had the worst date last night.

Okay not worst worst, but really bad.

So mum set me up on a date last night. I really should know better at this point, but I was getting desperate with only Razor for companionship and well, I figured, what could it hurt? I guess I should have cleared with her ahead of time what her version of an appropriate date would be. She said he was announcer. I didn't realize he would be an announcer FRIEND OF DAD. He was 56, which I know it's not polite to judge someone based on age, but he was also a very overweight 56. And bald. And he fell asleep at the table during dinner. Oh, he's narcoleptic, I forgot that bit.

I tried to sneak out the bathroom during dessert and caught my heel on the window and went tumbling into the bushes, ripping my dress open. I gave Diagon an excellent view of my knickers before I could apparate home and finish a bottle of wine, which I now regret.

I don't know why I leave the house sometimes.

This is why I stop drinking earlier on Sundays. Because Monday practices with a case of the Mondays are no fun. And there is NO MERCY. Now, if you're doing hair of the dog, that's a different story. Just put some irish in your coffee and you'll be fine.

Second, WHY FOR THE LOVE OF HELGA did you let your mother set you up? Mothers are notoriously rubbish at that. I mean, sure, he might be appropriate, but appropriate is lame. Did you leave him asleep in his soup?

Were your knickers at least cute?

Come over tonight. Or I'll come over. We'll go out and make you forget all about Mister boring bald announcer.

Yeah well, I probably wouldn't have chosen a Sunday date but hey, beggers can't be choosers. Or maybe I shouldn't beg? Anyway, no more set ups from mum for me.

I woke him up because I was afraid he'd drown. I actually made it through two more courses so you should be proud of me.

Lex. Who do you think you're talking to? My life's philosophy is that you should always where cute knickers because you never know if you're going to get hit by the Knight Bus and lord knows I'm not going to Mungo's in anything other than adorable knickers.

Sounds like a plan. Do you have a lot of wine? Or a moderate amount and some firewhiskey?

	No begging. Do you want setups? Because I have a list of quidditchers I could set you up with if you tell me what you're looking for. That is a good philosophy. I've got plenty of whiskey and some beer. If you want wine you'll have to bring it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My secret theory is that Mun was trying to set him up with Aunt Una (because age compatible), and she redirected on to you. If I were awful, I’d suggest telling Aunt Una it went badly because all he wanted to talk about was her. (Reply to this) (Thread)
