Date Night


We were at Ava's house for dinner. Bob was so excited to be in the presence of his lovely friend that he got a a little frantic, then a little weepy and then passed out. He fell asleep on the couch and stayed there missing the meal entirely. Bob may not be the most entertaining dinner companion, but he is dramatic.

Ava collects unicorns. She has a special lamp in her bedroom that casts rainbows across the wall and onto the "sky" of her four poster bed. Her unicorns are of course, magic. She trotted out the whole herd and set them up at strategic points around Bob to protect him while he slept.

As Bob would say, they very did.

  3. Whew.. it's good to see I am not the only guy who gets a little weepy, frantic and passes out right before a date.

    Although.. the main difference is Bob will probably outgrow it. Sigh.

  5. This gets an "Awww" factor of 12. On a scale of 10.

  6. He slept in her bed? And there were unicorns involved?

    I think in some cultures that means you are now a Mother-in-law, my dear.

  8. Oh, sweetness! That picture is one he'll love now, hate when he's 12, and love again when he's 30. He's a lucky boy to have such a sweet friend. He very is.

  9. Where's Mia? And what's up with the 3-letter named women in Bob's world? What does it all mean? I hope the unicorns know because I need to have a relax after all this thinking.

  10. Oh Bob. You poor thing! I hope you don't fall asleep during your next date. :-)

  11. Oh, that boy is after my own heart.

    I love the franticness followed by the passing out.

    So much like the way my husband wooed me..

  14. Aw, the little cub. Just awww. Did the unicorns work their way into his dreams? That's the very cutest possible version of a guy getting drunk and passing out on his date ever. But I hope sweet little Ava doesn't develop co-dependency issues when she grows up. When Bob does it, it's worthy of a protective circle of unicorns; when Randy the quarterback does it -- no second date.

  15. I'm really growing to love your family :)

  16. All those "accidents" when Mia is around must have raised a red flag for Bob. Smart man.

  17. Hope Bob realizes it really is true love when a girl puts her unicorns to work protecting the sleeping prince. Ava sounds like she might be a keeper!
