How about we… meet up at Sound Exchange. What's more telling about someone than the type of music they like?
How about we… meet up at Fox & Hound British Pub. I have not been here in forever, but I used to like it. I hear they have new owners.
How about we… meet up at Ploy Thai. I have no idea why people line up at the Chili's two doors down when this place is so awesome and there's almost always a table available.
How about we… meet up at Taste of india. The outside looks like nothing special, but it's awesome.
How about we… make cookies to hand out to random people on the street. Or sandwiches. Your choice.
How about we… meet up at The Bricks.
About sarahjayn
An awesome place I've visited:
Oakland, California - I know, it doesn't sound that great. I mean, people make jokes about how shitty it is. This is just a bad rep, though. Oakland's awesome.
My perfect Sunday:
involves not wasting the whole day getting ready for Monday.
My life history in 5 sentences or fewer:
I was born in a Kentucky log cabin, though most people think I was born in Illinois. My mother died when I was nine of the milk sickness, but I went on to become a lawyer. After many failures in politics I became President of the United States of America, but I was sadly shot dead in 1865 by an actor and Confederate sympathizer. Wait, no . . . that's Abraham Lincoln's life story. Guess you're gonna have to meet me to find out mine.
My first concert / My dream concert:
I went to see my favorite band, Green Day, for my 30th birthday and it was awesome. I'd love to see them in a smaller venue.
Obscure knowledge I possess:
Well, I went to school for Art and now I teach Science. There's a lot of things that fit into this category.
I have a weakness for guys/girls who:
don't need to be taught how to be nice. Do you say, "no offense," before saying something really offensive? Or, "I'm just being honest," when you know you are being a douche? Shame, shame.
For me, a first date no-no is:
expecting that we aren't going to split the cheque. Because we totally are. Also, being arrogant and self-promoting? That's not cool.
What I would bring to show and tell:
I would probably bring one of the paintings I did in college . . . or this crochet doll my friend made me or a record I own.
A story you should remind me to tell you on our first date:
Either about the time I wasn't Abraham Lincoln or the time I insulted Michael Stipe on accident (sort of).
I secretly want to be:
Rich. Not crazy rich, but rich. Well, rich enough not to have to think about money. I-can-give-to-all-the-charities-I-like and still pay the bills rich. Oh, and travel rich. That's why I sometimes play the lottery. Don't tell anyone, though. It'll be our secret. Our secret that I put on the Internet.
I want to be with someone who wants to be:
who is nice and fun to hang out with. What other answer could their be for this question?
An infatuation of mine:
Infatuation? I don't know. I am really into music. I have a weird thing for Jane Weidlin from The Go-Gos. Some people say I am borderline obsessed with Billie Joe Armstrong from Green Day.
If I won the lottery and quit my job, I would:
I would see a lot more bands play. A lot. I would travel a fair amount, too. Oh, and I'd buy a house. I'd like a home base.
One thing my mother would want you to know about me:
Um, that I am a Girl Scout leader? Because Girl Scouts are totally boss? Actually, she probably wouldn't care if you knew that or not, but I like slipping it in. There's nothing more attractive than a cookie connection, no?
I want to come home to:
A nice family, affectionate pets, a fairly clean house, a stereo, and a some-what firm matress.
