once I got all hot and sweaty, pulled my jumper off over my head, and my hair stuck straight up from the sweatiness.
once I invited a boy upstairs for a cup of tea and put couscous in his tea instead of sugar and it expanded and took over half the cup and he drank it without saying anything.
once I got all excited about something and accidentally did a spit while I was talking and it landed on the boy’s nose.
in addition, the following happen with regularity:
- food falling off fork and hitting plate with loud, wet sound
- clinking glass against oversized front teeth
- hitting fork against oversized front teeth
- lemon – or cherry tomato - squirting into date’s eye
- peas shooting off plate and landing in date’s lap
- cutlery falling on floor
- self falling on floor
- sounds like 'uregth' and 'lort' coming out of mouth because real words cannot be formed due to nervousness
in a movie, this would be endearing. in real life, it’s not.
however, a couple of weeks ago, I was trumped by the boy I went out with.
a couple of hours into the evening, I asked him how old he was and he said 47. I said I was quite surprised because he looks like late 30s. I told him I was 34 and he said he was quite surprised because I look like 38-40.
I don't feel so bad about 'lort' anymore.
