Date # 19

I didn't cancel despite the hurricane like conditions out last night. I was to meet A at Extra Virgin a small, let me emphasize small restaurant in the W Village. I took the subway from my apartment, because i thought it would be impossible to get a cab- already that's a big feat for me, and not surprisingly, I got lost! I really feel that below 14th street no one has any idea how to get around NYC, let alone speak English! Its pouring, and cold, and i'm lost... but I finally find my way after the pizza delivery guy points me in the opposite way that I was originally walking. The restaurant is super tiny, and they don't take reservations- A was waiting there, and we got drinks at the bar. Truth, i was annoyed bc theres a lot of people walking and bumping into each other, but finally we sit. And chat, and it feels comfortable, and nice, and he loves to talk, and he's really good at engaging me in a conversation. He pays compliments every other word, which is cute. To confirm, he's a self labeled snob, as he so eloquently put it, and is a Trust fund baby- which would be the reason for his love of designer everything.. yack! But seriously, he's cute, and smart, and funny- he paid for dinner, and then we walked (yes in the rain) to try to find a cab (yes, best of luck!) and then finally got into one. Went to the Tribecca Grand hotel, and had drinks there. We sat on the couch and made out ( i know i was that girl!!) and chatted and drank. Overall it was such a fun evening! We'll definitely see each other again, just not sure when.
Tonight- downtown with D.
