For instance, one night my friend, D and I decided to meet for dinner and drinks. We decided on a nice restaurant, the time was 5pm. Oh, did I mention she is a brunette?
I get there and sit at the bar, order a glass of chardonnay and begin to read the newspaper that was lying on the counter. Time gets away and I look at my watch, 20 minutes has now gone by! "That's strange," I think to myself, because her and I are very punctual people. We both had high stress, fast- paced careers and were used to being very prompt for any meeting, anywhere. I waited a few more minutes thinking maybe rush hour was holding her up. But no phone call either!?
Alas, I called her. Maybe I got the name of the restaurant wrong, or the time wrong. Anyway, she answers her phone. "Where are you?", I ask. "I'm here", she replied. "Where?", I ask. D. mentions the name and we are at the same restaurant! She had been sitting at a table waiting for me! Now, I ask you. Who got the directions correct? Well, being a blonde, I just assumed it was me!
I look around and there at this table she was waving at me! Duh! We had a good laugh!
