So, I've finally managed to get a date. Tonight. On the coast, fancy restaurant on the bay. With a guy who I really like. And who is amazingly good looking. And who is a southern gentleman...he has a deep and rumbly, heavily accented voice, which makes me grin when I hear it.

But...

Frankly, I'm terrified.

It's been - oh, I dunno - about 3 years since I've had a first date, and all the typical nerves are running. I don't think I'll pee in my pants, but it will be a close one, I think....

I went out and bought some new clothes, new shoes, my favorite perfume. I will be styling my hair (as best I can), and wearing makeup, too. I have begun to believe I just might be possessed...LOL.

So anyway, all this is to say that my work will suffer today, and I'll be bailing at about 3 just to get ready. LOL, it doesn't take me 4 hours to get ready, but...hey, I just gotta take that time.

Tums and Alka Seltzer will be on the menu....

Vibes, good luck, prayers that I don't embarrass myself too too badly...whatever you can spare. I'm nervous, excited, terrified, and thrilled. But I must admit, giving a presentation to 1500 people is easier than this...

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best-
Michele

Awww, Michele! Everything will be ok, I just know it will! Unless he hates cats or something like that! {{HUGS}} for you and lots of "anti-nervousness" vibes too!

No, he has one cat. He knows I have five, and doesn't think that's bad (and he's obviously not allergic). He's also a private pilot. Owns his own business...and he's single.

YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!

LOLing at myself, too...

Best-
Michele

Oh now come on! A woman who jumps out of perfectly running planes and parachutes to the ground has an attack of nerves about a first date?
What is wrong with this picture!
You will be fine Noni, just relax and be yourself-

Wow! With a nice, romantic setting like that, you'll be just fine!


He's probably just as nervous and excited as you are!

Relax and have some fun! Sending you good vibes!

GOOD LUCK MICHELLE!!!!!!!!

As long as you feel good about yourself (looks like you'll have that covered, with the new clothes, perfume, hairdo, etc) , you will reflect that on your date and things will go great!

ENJOY THE BUTTERFLIES! They are one of the greatest things about starting something new and exciting (and unfortunately they do not always last terribly long!). This guy sounds like a wonderful catch (cat owner=MAAAAAAAAJOR plus!) and I am sure he thinks of you as a major catch as well. Sit back, relax, laugh, have a great time, and let the sparks fly!

Michele, he already liked you enough to ask you out, so try not to worry too much! It's going to be fun! First dates can be a bit daunting, but exciting too...like first kisses...you never get to experience that again with the same person, so revel in it!

Keep us updated!

Sending vibes your way, Michele, but I'm sure things will go well, as you already have cats and planes in common. Be sure to tell him about Simon's stunts. I hope you have a great time!

Good Luck. And remember; Be Yourself. Even if that means eating every last bit of that chocolate off of the dessert. Don't hide who ya are.
And hey he is owned by a cat so that is a MAJOR plus.

Oh Michele, you have a good time and try to relax. Remember, he's just as nervous as you are!
