The Fruit Girl?

I may have met a new candidate for the next blind date for my co-worker. If you need some background on this story, and my part as a yenta, click on the "Blind Date" category over on the left.

She was working at a local fruit and vegetable stand. I stopped to see what was fresh. By the way, I found some wonderful local blueberries and luscious ripe figs. Anyway, she is very cute, blonde, 32, and looking. Or so she told me. I honestly don't know what it is about me that inspires women to confide in me about their romantic histories and hopes, but it never fails. It may be because I am a safe flirt.

In fact, she did flirt with me. She said, as I fumbled with opening a plastic bag and she took it from me, that she was surprised I was married since I seemed to lack the "magic touch". I told her, I am chagrinned to admit, that she didn't know what she was talking about since I wasn't using my tongue to open the bag. She laughed.

I gave her my card and told her all about my co-worker. We'll see if she calls. She was cute and funny.

2 I don't know how each date has turned out, but you, my friend are giving buddy the time of his life!

3 Sure, Wicked, why not? Yeah, Annie. It is a combination of the urge to meddle with the urge to fix. Click on the link for "Blind Date" in the category list to see all the entries.

4 I read the entire "Blind Date" section a few weeks ago, and had been meaning to write asking for an update--it's about damn time... Anyhoo, I'm not sure whether I should wish you and your friend good luck or bad; surely the latter would produce better stories, but for the sake of blogging civility, I'll go with the good luck. Keep us posted.

5 That's nice of you, David. The thing about updates for this category is that they can only come when a suitable candidate is uncovered. Right now, I'm still waiting to see if the fruit girl is going to call me for the introduction. This might just fizzle out.

7 I like the magic touch line. Man, I'm dying to use that on somebody!

8 Your friend is lucky to have you keeping an eye out for him, and I wish I could be one of the women you run into.
