I went out with Stacy last night. She kills me. I think we all know that I don’t find Asian women attractive, so that definitely makes our relationship “safe”. It was a hoot because we spent most of the night talking about the inter-relationships between men and women.

First off, I hadn’t seen her for a few months. I went in to get my phone checked at around 4pm but she didn’t get out of work until 6-ish. Wouldn’t you know it? Stacy got stuck in traffic. I had to wander the mall for over two hours waiting for her. Ugh. When she finally let me know that she was parking her car it was like someone lifting a 500 pound weight from my shoulders. Finally! We can sit down and talk! It was refreshing seeing her after so long, now new and improved with longer hair and more weight! (more on the weight thing later).

With Monday night’s wine and Scotch boozing behind me I couldn’t help but declare that I wasn’t going to drink last night. The mere thought of an alcoholic beverage made me queasy, especially since I didn’t have lunch.  As soon as we got to the bar, the barkeep asked what we wanted. Instinctively, I blurted out ‘Golden Export’. What can I say? We were at Gordon Biersch. With that, she got herself a white wine and we were off and running.

Stacy is skinny. I know, who would have ever imagined a skinny Chinese girl. But to listen to her complain about her weight was hilarious. I honestly have no idea how women think being bigger than a size 2 is cause for drastic dieting. Bah. The weight looks good on her.

So, most of the night we talked about relationships, catching up on each other’s careers and other random stuff. I love catching up with old friends.
