    A few months back I was on a first dinner date with my ex (@ the time she was my girl) at PF Changs. It was a random night, nothing special or a special reason. While we were being seated, (again randomly) I froze and my girlfriend asked me what was wrong. I laughed and said, there's a girl over there that I know, She kept pestering me because I was laughing and asked me why. Turns out that I was sitting in direct view and angle of a girl I had a huge crush in high school and never asked out. It was really awkward for the both of us. The other girl was on a big family birthday thing for one of her aunts. But she was sitting directly in my view, the whole night. It was pretty nice actually. My last gf was a pretty decent chick, but this girl put her to shame physically. And my ex was 19 and I'm 24. After a while it was gross. The reason I'm happy is because our break up was pretty nice and clean, but I pretty much look at the whole experience as being half assed. Just two days ago, in a row, I saw her at two different stores. This is was a week after my break up from my ex.

    I'm happy because I feel like I finally listened to gods simple obvious signs and asked her out.

    How's PF Chang's? I've always heard it's a sort of upscale but run-of-the-mill type Chinese restaurant, the kind of place you'd take someone who's too picky for Chinese buffet, but too frugal for a really nice restaurant.


    “For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”

    You heard right. That's exactly what it's like. Plus it's pretty hoighty toighty. Like, the cheapest meal is around $13.50, but it's still not much food. And they only give you four dumplings. I felt jipped when I left to be honest. The food is good, but I've actually had better for cheaper from other individually owned places.

    It's weird but the best place I've ever had Chinese are these two restaurants in Vernal, Utah, at the time a city of about 11,000 in northwest Utah. One was a buffet and the other a typical restaurant. Both were run by Chinese families. They had decent prices and excellent food, maybe the best Chinese restaurants I've ever been to, and I'm from Houston where there's a thousand restaurants. I've been meaning to visit that middle-of-nowhere shit town just to eat at these restaurants again.

    Well hopefully things work out with your new gf. Will you take her to a nicer restaurant than PFC's?

    Went to a sweet bbq/house party in the OC and ate way too much delicious food, swung by a rooftop party at a ritzy hotel during the fireworks in Hollywood, then enjoyed a hot cappuccino and watched kung fu panda in a jacuzzi on the roof of a very swanky house overlooking LA.

    Best 4th of July ever.

    Hopefully there were girls present, though I've had just as much fun at sausage parties as at parties with chicks.
