Wednesday’s post-millenial ball-dropping incident, sorted out on Facebook:
Subject: I see you removed the ’single’ status
7:13pm Jan 16th
To: Me
From: British Guy With Drinking Issues (BGWDI)
good for you.
bit rude of you to stand me up, tho!
11:50pm Jan 16th
To: BGWDI
From: Me
Ha! That’s funny. I’ve been waiting to hear back from you as to whether or not you’re free tonight (remember, you weren’t sure). I removed my status solely because I don’t really care to have my facebook friends know about it. I went to the movies with my girlfriend when I didn’t hear from you. What were you waiting on me for? I never, ever stand anyone up.
7:05am Jan 17th
To: Me
From: BGWDI
I emailed you on Tuesday asking you what time you were free
however, it’s possible I did it from my iphone which is a bit flaky as to whether it decides to send emails.
P.S. I first approached this guy last year, on a dating site, right before I got foot surgery in November. Although we’ve now migrated to being Facebook “friends,” we’ve not yet met.
P.P.S. Bad sign: He tells me “I’m on the wagon for Jan.”
P.P.P.S. I’m meeting up with him tomorrow night, at a bar
