Telephone Tag

I was in the mountains yesterday with my daughter and her family.  We went to an art show and met some of her friends.  Communication on my cell phone was non-existent so when we finally settled back down to flat land and got home, I read the following message on my phone:  "You have 1 missed call."  Well, lo and behold Mr. M&M called me. 

I called him back right away, but his voice mail was on, so I left a message.  A few margueritas later at my daughter's, washed down with lots of water and some chicken kabobs, I drove home.  Getting ready to watch the Tony Awards, I noticed the same message on my phone again, "You have 1 missed call."  Are you kidding me?  My cell phone was sitting on the couch right next to me!  What gives!  Mr. M&M man called me back!  It turns out my cell phone was on vibrate and I couldn't hear it.  Grrrrrrrr...........

After putting the Tony's on hold (thank God for the DVR), I called him back.  What a sweetie!  He said he was thinking about me and wanted to know when we could meet again.  Nice!  I also mentioned that I'd be going away this Saturday for five days and he said he would miss me.  Another Nice!

So we talked for a few minutes, then decided to meet for dinner one night this week.  (This time Italian.)  Although I said I wanted to treat, he said no way.  I mean he can't keep treating me for dinner.  (Is my suspicious mind working overtime now and what 'payment' will I have to give for two dinners?) 
He'll call today and we'll set it up. At least he follows through.

Ahhhh....Italian food!  Something to look forward to.  A quote from my much loved deceased Dad:  "I'd rather clothe you then feed you!"

Ciao!
