I'll spare you my harsh JMU joke. I went to UVA.<br /><br />Also Chesapeake Bay seafood house was my favorite growing up. Seriously... Was the best food we had nearby. Sad. I went to the one in Fredericksburg, VA though...

My husband speaks fondly of that place. 6 kids and his dad used to walk in and say "they'll have the cod" because it was the cheapest on the menu. <br />I went on a date with this guy to see the movie Air Force One because I love me some Harrison Ford. The theatre was pretty empty - maybe 20 people or so. Just as it got quiet, he ripped out this huge fart. It was so loud that I just stood up, walked across the theatre with my soda and pop corn and sat as far away from him as possible. <br />I married him about 2 years later.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13431670488985919943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-87804141674199320642011-09-01T10:29:55.899-07:002011-09-01T10:29:55.899-07:00Met a boy at a frat party in college.

We went to a party the next weekend. HIS ex-girlfriend showed up at the party and told him she wanted to get back together so...no kidding...mid-date with me, he told me he was getting back with her, they were leaving the party, and could I find a ride home. Then actually CALLED me the next weekend to see if I wanted to go out again (I said no, in case you were wondering).Elizabethhttp://www.elizathon.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-46857773533123670422011-09-01T09:56:02.349-07:002011-09-01T09:56:02.349-07:00My stories don't even come close!

Back in college went out on a date with a guy whose family then a primary owner of a major small appliances company (ie blenders, slow cookers, toasters, etc.). We had a nice dinner, but both felt it going nowhere. But as he dropped me off, he reached into the back seat and grabbed a toaster for me. Yes, I got a date parting gift. It lasted MANY years and my current one is the same brand.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12694824215244854072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-44768382570466529262011-09-01T09:09:37.044-07:002011-09-01T09:09:37.044-07:00Just saw you went to JMU.

I asked how he got my # and he told me I gave it to him right before the cops broke up the party. I agreed. We met outside of a Starbucks. I was on the phone with a friend when he walked up (just in case I needed an out) and I saw him and everything was good. He took me to this bar he use to work at and we got free drinks (great when the guy is 29 and you're under 21) and we went out to dinner afterwards. I've seen/spoken to him every singel day since.Runners Fuelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12489147811054118908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-28746036290757863552011-09-01T08:18:21.465-07:002011-09-01T08:18:21.465-07:00That's sounds like an awesome first date, asid...That's sounds like an awesome first date, aside from the whole running out of gas in an airplane and not liking the guy part... :)Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06666092475697376974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-17979282182077525792011-09-01T07:19:03.422-07:002011-09-01T07:19:03.422-07:00HILARIOUS!

I was home summer after my freshman year in college (also before cell phones) and had gone out dancing with my girlfriends who were also home for the summer. I was completely sober but came in about 3am to find my dad sitting up waiting for me...screaming at me about being disrespectful, blah blah blah. I remember being so shocked (b/c I am their straight and narrow kid) that I yelled back something about them not caring what time I rolled in while I was away and they were lucky I was not a drunk or drug addict and then went upstairs and slammed my bedroom door.

Including the guy who looked nothing like his picture, never said a WORD during coffee when I talk my ass off and have no problem talking to anyone (I did to him, since a monologue gets boring) and managed to ruin a Guns n Roses concert -- don't say you're a fan if you don't sing along to ANY of the songs!<br /><br />Or the guy who was a federal agent and kept talking about his gun. Every time he said "gun" I heard "penis" then my meal was $1 more than his, and when the bill came, not only he accepted my offer to split, but he actually said "uh, yours was a dollar more..." and yes, I paid the extra dollar. Then he asked me out on another day while walking to my car, and all I could think of "crap, he's armed."Carla @ I Run, You Runhttp://irunyourun.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-20801155285855710472011-09-01T06:35:28.020-07:002011-09-01T06:35:28.020-07:00Oh, I loved the king crab legs from there!

Then he bought a ticket for himself and walked into the theatre leaving me outside. Afterwards, "dinner" consisted of coffee and a day-old muffin (again that I paid for). What a jerk. Later he tried to get me to pay for the expense of the gasoline in his car driving to the movie theatre.Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11027443290806051087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-74037260606811773972011-09-01T06:28:44.853-07:002011-09-01T06:28:44.853-07:00That is awesome!

He worked in marketing and got free front row tickets to the circus, so he decided to take this girl he had been wanting to ask out and impress her with these "great" tickets. As the elephant parade marched by, every elephant had explosive diarrhea! They ended up getting splashed with elephant poo. They left early and parted ways rather quickly to shower off the smell. But now they are married with 2 kids.

I guarantee that was NOT true. <br /><br />3)The bartender from the strip club I met at my friends bachelorette party (It was an awful party). Met he and his friend at a bar where they started taking shots. Proceeded to next bar where they became even more shitfaced. On the way back to the original bar, driving down the service road of the freeway, bartender dude climbs out the window and onto the roof racks of my CRV!!! Even his friend was freaking out! After slowly and cautiously dropping them off at their own vehicle, I decided that bartender dude might be a little too much fun for me.
