Sometimes you’re late for the date.
Stepping into the dark restaurant, shaking off your umbrella, squeezing past the bar, you don’t know what you’re gonna get: Who’s gonna be here? Have they already ordered? Will there even be a chair?
If you’re like me, baby butterflies flap in your stomach when you stumble into Tonight’s Social Scene for the first time. Brushing rain off your eyebrows, unzipping your jacket, you smile nervously as you spot your friends and walk over to their crowded table in the back.
And if your entrance is marked by heads turning, forks dropping, fists raising, and loud cheers, it means you’re hanging with a great group. So smile and accept their little Welcome Package of hugs and high-fives.
It’s gonna be a great night.
AWESOME!

p.s. Unfortunately, the page-a-day calendar sold out well before Christmas the past two years so grab one soon if you’re feeling it. I sincerely appreciate the support and through projects like the calendar you’ve got my word I’ll always keep this blog ad free.
If you really want a super warm welcome, wait until later in the night. For some reason the greetings get awesomer as time (and drinks) go by.
True, true. The later in the evening, the bigger the welcome.
Nawww. It’s times like this I wish I lived in America. CHEAP AWESOME CALENDARS!! :D
I am with you there lovethebadguy! we are missing out on some of the Awesome ;D
