Analog-Theater 2.0

I would like to apologize for my last post. As you can see by the time stamp, it was around 1:30 in the morning when I wrote it. I realize, that that is still no excuse. My good friend Eric brought my post to my attention. I fixed some of it, but I realized it’s already been a full 24 hours and in internet time, its a lot longer.

My date with Jeanne was by no means a bad date. It was rather enjoyable, except for a few awkward silences. While my brother’s advice does drastically limit what I can talk about, I did work around it. And while I was told that I should be myself, I disagree. I should never be myself on a date, it’s a good way ruin any chances I might have of having her ever talk to me again. I ask this question to my friends, would any of you actually want to go out with me?

As for my comment about note going on another date for another three years, it’s for two reasons (neither of which have anything to do with Jeanne, she should actually feel complimented by this). First, I get very nervous before going out, or around women in general. Women don’t general like me as anything more than a friend. I also have a long history of screwing things up with women, just ask Nancy. I’ll admit that at least half of it was my fault. I was so nervous Friday that I was throwing up. I don’t like going through that very often. The second reason is priorities. My brother disagrees with me very strongly on this one. My priorities are first God, second work, third video games, and fourth women. In some aspects, video games are superior to women. You get save points, you can turn them off, they don’t get mad at you when you buy a new game, they don’t talk back (usually).

Sometimes I do get bored of video games and seek some real life interaction. And sometimes my dungeons and dragons group isn’t enough. That’s why once ever couple years I find some nice girl like Jeanne and ask her out. And about one in ten times, they say yes.

In short, Jeanne was a wonderful date, and I think we had a good time together. I even considered asking her out for a second date. Three seconds later, I decided that it was for the best that I don’t.
