Day 3 - We're a little unorthodox

Today is supposed to be about my idea of a perfect first date.  The truth is, I don't have an answer to that question.  I never thought about it, & I don't intend to.  Sorry.

Instead, I'm going to make this post about my first "date" with DJ.

You may or may not know that DJ & I were introduced by his sister, Jenn @ South of Sheridan.  And by introduced, I don't mean in a "I'd like you to meet my brother because I think you have a lot in common way."  It was more like, "You're at my house.  He's at my house.  Now you've met."

For a while, I only ever saw DJ when I was with Jenn & her hubby Ben.  But after a while we started emailing each other, which lead to phone calls.  Then one day I invited myself over to his place for dinner, which I agreed to pick up since it was rude of me to invite myself over.

We had DiGiorno pizza & watched Gray's Anatomy.  Then, Jenn came over.  Turns out, a family friend was in the hospital.  Their mom had gone to visit, & ended up on the way to Delaware.  So, Jenn & Ben had to go on a search & rescue mission - & DJ needed to keep his little sister Michelle.

So little Michelle crashed the date, but I wouldn't have had it any other way.
