Just for the record, I submit my vote for this thread to be in the Hall of Fame.

Over 200 replies, and it's only been 3 dates. Definitely HOF worthy...

Hey everybody thanks for thinking of me. I had no idea how many people here hinge on my social life. It's nice to have a fan club and I appreciate the support. I was in meetings all day yesterday so I couldn't really get a chance to respond.
My stomach was feeling better mostly by then. I medicated myself up pretty well so I bottled up like a running play gone wrong. Better to be safe than sorry. I did let out a throaty belch at one point though to test the waters, which got me a mixed reaction. Better ease into this.

The Bears lost but that was about the only bad part of the day. Things didn't quite go as expected. I figured we would toss back a few beers and by halftime I'd show her the old wishbone offense if you catch my drift. I didn't get to make any plays on her tight end, but I had a really good time and got the sense that this might be going somewhere.

By the time the third quarter rolled around, we had pretty much tuned out the game and were having some of that deep, 'meaning of life' sort of talk. What do you think of this? How do you feel about that? Where do you see your life, career, etc stuff going...That kinda thing.

The Fudgeman never has those kind of talks. The few dates I've had over the years have generally ended with a lukewarm 'let's get together sometime...' that never went anywhere after that. This just clicked the other night, it's tough to explain. She is going off to her brother's for Thanksgiving, but after that I really want to invite her to the company party or at least hang out with my boys. That's fair right? It's not too soon is it? I hope she likes my buddies though because they are quite a bit wilder than me. Harmless, but kinda goofy at times. Not much in the action department this week but I did get a thorough tonsil cleansing. We'll see what happens in a coulple weeks after the holiday. I'd rather not have to wait 2 weeks to hang out again.

You are good Fudgemaster.Very good.Will follow this thread very closely.Maybe I will be able to learn something.

So you're thinking this may have potential to go into the Christmas holidays?
That adds huge pressure, because then you must figure out if the relationship;

A. is it a relationship

B. is it the type of relationship that warrants a Christmas gift

C. if so, what type of gift. Romantic? Useful? Neutral? etc. etc.

D. Do you gift each other, but no visits to family yet?

E. Do you go to her family gathering?

F. Do you invite her to your family gathering?

This could get very interesting............

I agree opcorn:

 

[Dleg]

Tonsil cleaning? Yours or hers? If it was hers, then I am impressed. :thumbs:

Way to go Fudgey!

 

[PE-ness]

Fudgey - if it helps, just remember that I am rooting for you.

She's really into you. Keep us posted!

:appl:
Sounds like all is going well.

It's so fun to hear to guy side of these things- I really thought only chicks talked about this stuff.

You talk about splitting the uprights and tight ends?

You talk about splitting the uprights and tight ends?

You're damn right I do!

But... in the "football" sense... well, except the "tight end" part. ;-)

I know, we need updates Fudgemeister

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

Fudgey has been low key lately. Where is our great master of the brown and sloppy? Is he out of town or something?

 

[Fudgey]

^Real busy sorry guys. We are meeting for lunch on saturday and I invited her to my company party on the 14th of december. I plan to break out the old mistletoe belt buckle for this occasion.

 

[DVINNY]

I invited her to my company party

Oh, this could be HUGE

 

[squishles10]

... I plan to break out the old mistletoe belt buckle for this occasion.

Are you serious? Did you make it or buy it? That's freaking awesome. Why, with all the weirdos I hang out with, have I never seen this before... :-\

 

[ODB_PE]

Oh, this could be HUGE

Once again, I will remind that I predicted this hugeness weeks ago. Only Fudgey can mess it up now.

Ok, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker

going here, two down, nobody on, no score,

bottom of the ninth, there's the wind-up and

there it is, a line shot up the middle, look

at him go. This boy can really fly!

He's rounding first and really turning it on

now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna

try for second; the ball is bobbled out in center,

and here comes the throw, and what a throw!

He's gonna slide in head first, here he comes, he's out!

No, wait, safe--safe at second base, this kid really

makes things happen out there.

Batter steps up to the plate, here's the pitch--

he's going, and what a jump he's got, he's trying

for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt--

safe at third! Holy cow, stolen base!

He's taking a pretty big lead out there, almost

daring him to try and pick him off. The pitcher

glance over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted

down the third base line, the suicide squeeze in on!

Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close,

here's the throw, there's the play at the plate,

holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!

^^^ How many people do you think can pick that out WITHOUT doing a google search??

Fudgey--

It sounds like you are coming into the home stretch quite nicely! :thumbs:

Regarding the office party - have you thought about how to defuse some of the potentially embarrasing things that could come out?? I am not talking about flatulence here either man ... I am talking about dork patrols and office talk about uncool things like ex-gf's and pranks and things of that nature??

I got ripped once at an office party (not christmas) where I invited a lady I had gone out with a few times where some of the office ladies decided to point out some of my previous indiscretions. That only happened once - I had backup plans after that time on how to handle those sorts of issues at future office parties/work related functions.

I primarily point it out because if you have goofs for co-workers that can make for an incompatible mixture if your lady-friend might take what they say at face value thinking they should be serious minded rather than the goof your co-workers would mean for it to be.

I got lazy and bought one. Though it would have been real fun to make I bet. Here's the one I got. Belt Buckle link I wear it as a gag at parties but if someone ever wants to honor tradition who am I to say no? I recommend you order one immediately to get it in time for the holiday season.

Well the office only has a dozen people or so and I know most of them well so it's a fairly close knit bunch. i've had drinks with most of them before and none of them seem like ******** when liquored up. They are either friendly or quiet no real jerks plus I think they are pulling for me. They might give me a good ribbing but I don't think anything really humiliating. We'll see.

Caution with the sexy props, Fudgey. I too used to be "that guy" - my favorite used to be a Ski resort shirt that said "Give me Rossignol or give me Head". (Funnier back when Head had more of a market share in the skiing world)

While the gags always got attention, I found that I had much better success when I stopped using them - and that was back in my frat boy days.
