8:23pm

Tomorrow's the big day. My first real date. I spent most of the day with a fair level of anxiety. By now though, I'm starting to feel like there's nothing to worry about. Everything's going to go fine.

I bought our tickets for both the movie and the circus. I'm almost broke; I have a credit card though :) I actually got a call from the credit card company today to verify that I've been making unusual charges to my card. I haven't used it in a year, and suddenly I am using it three times in one day. I guess their paranoia is justified.

I picked up a book on dating just so I can get some last minute advice on all of the little things that nobody ever mentions (speak audibly, make eye contact, say her name, etc). Tomorrow, I need to get some cash, pick up some cologne, and get her a flower. Then I'm all set. I have until 2pm, so that should be plenty of time.

I'm now going to go distract myself for a while before I get all anxious again :)


1:11am

I didn't have very much luck distracting myself. I hung out on IRC, paced around my apartment, sat down, cleaned up stuff, read some magazines, and I still feel anxious. Oh well. It's getting late and now I must attempt sleep. I give myself an hour and if I'm not asleep by then, it will be time for some Unisom.
