Please note: His name isn't Ted. And acme bar isn't actually the name of the bar, instead it is a bar in DC with dancing and overpriced drinks with a line outside - so not my scene. But as it turns out, 13 hours of overindulgence in bad decision juice can result is lot of out of character fun.
So I get this text from Ted and the foggy memories flow slowy back. I write back the not so clever, "Hi Ted from Acme Bar." To which he responds, "Wats going on?" Really? In this day and age of texting why can't people spell and punctuate correctly? I find it kind of annoying. And I am crap when it comes to grammar so it is kind of the pot calling the kettle black... but I'm okay with it. If you are asking a girl, a guy or a monkey out over text, shouldn't you at least put your best textual foot forward?
Oh balls. I just had a thought, maybe he is 24 years old and grew up texting, not like me, the tech dinosaur (who had a pager that nobody ever called) in high school. Please. Please. Please. Do not be 24 years old.
Anyway, after some more back and forth (with two "yea"s on his part) we decided to meet for a cup of coffee this evening. I'll let you know what happens.
