seperis | right. so.

So it's possible I just asked R out on a date?

I mean, okay. I don't know but we were talking and I said I was taking my niece and son ice skating (because seriously, watching small people fall over? Endless fun!) and then I somehow asked him? To go? And he said yes?

...that's not a date, right?

This is what I get for refilling my Ritalin today after a week off and realizing today is friday and this is the first weekend I can sit down and do something fannish. Crazypants.

*breathing into paper bag*

That might be a date. Are you picking him up or meeting him there? He might just want to go ice skating. I wouldn't sweat it.

...he doesn't like ice skating.

But maybe he jsut wants to see what the fuss is about with ice skating? it's not a date when a son and a niece are involved, right?

It's a date if the kids are along but he's not there to babysit the kids.

I wouldn't worry. It's not like he's your soulmate or Bradley James or anything. Just have a good time.

Options:

1) You asked him to come and point and laugh at small people falling down with you. It's always more fun with a buddy.

2) You asked him to come kid wrangle with you. Decreases likelihood of stabbing yourself in the eye with a fork if you get bored.

3) This is the pre-date screening process, because if he is not good with the kids, out he goes, therefore, no pressure on you, all on him.

All very practical and calm reasons.

Don't wear the crazypants on the ~~date~~ excursion. Never the most flattering outfit in anyone's wardrobe.

I am breathing. Carefully.

I am voting for this to be the screening process where by Child can see the guy in a setting that isn't too horrible. And it allows everyone plenty of room for getting away if needs be.

Good luck! And remember to bring the Tums too!

~L

Just keep doing that and you'll be fine, lovie.

Its a date.

Its a date with kids along to chaperone.

But, its a date.

Have fun!

*crosses fingers*

Oh wow, YAY!!!!!! I hope you crazy kids have a good time! [grins] Remember, roofies are your friends.

That should not be funny but I just snorted sprite out my nose.

*falls over*

[props you up encouragingly]

Better living through chemistry! [grins] Or, alternately, you can make conversation, I suppose. Either way, I would definitely try and work in a discreet grope of his ass. You can tell him he sat in a puddle.

And keep in mind that when picking up men, lift with your legs and not your back.

If he doesn't like skating, then it's a date. It might be a sorta "feel eachother out to see if we want to pursue this thing", date, but it's a date. Like an investment.
but totally a date. XD
Say no to the crazypants! But it doesn't mean you can't act like you've got the crazy pants on. There are kids there, so there's a viable excuse! lol
Yay! Have fun!

I like this theory. Investment That I can do.

And breathe. *breathing*

Also, your icon? SERIOUSLY AWESOME.

!!!

*BREATHING*

I think it is date-lite. It doesn't have to be a date but if you want it to be a date. It's two things in one!

It sounds kind of like a pre-date, at the least. Like pre-slash, but with even more opportunities to not go there!

LOL I like the way you think. lol

*suffering sigh* I'm always the other woman. AND HERE I THOUGHT OUR SECRET LOVE AFFAIR MEANT SOMETHING TO YOU JENN.

[steals you away] COME WITH ME BB I'LL TREAT YOU RIGHT...

YOU ARE TRYING TO STEAL MY SECRET GF RIGHT HERE IN MY OWN LJ? YOU TRAMP.

[gasp of outrage] A tramp? I am NOT! Hmph!

[highly offended!]

heeeere, amireal...

*squees!* *grins* I think it is not a "date", but is a "friendly outing". It sounds like you asked him to go along so you would not be the only other adult there, and wanted companionship. But, establishing contact outside of work is the first step! And perhaps you will have fun. :-)

*HUGS* It's a social outing with a person you might like! That's exciting either way.

Now, which one was R?

In my universe, it's whatever you want it to be. ::nods:: It can even escalate from "hanging out" (I understand that that's what the kids are calling it these days, heh) to a date midway through, if it seems like everyone is having a good time. Probably best not to try to go the other way with it, though, so start out low-key and build, if need be.

Um, I would consider this a date, you know, I saw the same thing on Law and Order UK *coughs*

Don't worry though, you will BE FINE.

Wow. Just wow.

That was beautifully evil.

So I went to check out your journal. :)

(also, did you notice that your sticky post at the top has the code that the journals that were hacked through embedding got?)

Hee.

(and thanks, I went and fixed that.)

Date!

Sounds like a date. Just make sure you take protection with you, just in case.

Oh, wait. That would be the kids. *g*

Have fun!

Yeah, it's pretty much a date. On the plus side, it's a totally chaperoned date! I bet that kids are even better chaperons than parents.

WOW.

*hugs*

Yay! You have a *date*. That makes me happy. And envious, too. ;)

I'm going with the 'hanging out'/pre-date thing.

ALSO: good luck, have fun, etc!

Sounds like a date to me - but have you gone yet? Do tell! Did HE think it was a date? Was general dateness had by all?!?!?!
