Today-- I won the dating game.

We played it at FHE with the entire ward. The boy hid behind a curtain while we girls were eliminated from the crowd of lucky ladies by the show host who relayed answers to the bachelor's survey. Answers to questions like: When it comes to Disney princesses, you are most like: a. Bell: Beautiful, smart, and talks to furniture; b. Ariel: A daydreaming damsel that just wants more; c. Snow White: The fairest of them all and surrounded by guys (short, balding ones but hey, who's keeping track?).

When we got down to it, five of us were left standing, and the man himself pulled out the toughies--

Bachelor: I like food. If you were to make me dinner what would it be?
Me: Steak Sandwiches
My roommate: I'd start with cake (the question got her eliminated...evidentally boys don't like cake--I breathed a sigh of relief. Apparently I held my own against the ragu rigatoni mama mia prego girl).
Bachelor: Are you slow and steady or quick when it comes to men?
Me: I've never looked a man straight in the eye.
Audience: OOohs and ahs... and a little applause. OK a BIG one. (OK not really).
Bachelor: OK. How do you feel about athletics... I'm really asking about ESPN. What if I were to watch it-- ALL the time.
Me: I'm an idiot at sports. But, I like em. So I look like an idiot-- A LOT. ESPN? Its better than Friends.
Audience: (a few grumbles...tears from the back row blondes)
Bachelor: How do you feel about Utah?
Me: I think its hot.
Kid in the front: HA! Four words.

Buh BOW! That's all it took.

I'm going bowling this Saturday with Mr. [insert name here]. Pretty ironic...for reasons I won't address. I will say, however, I knew the kid freshman year.
