Kids Meal

"Tot this is a kids-meal"
"It is -American kids!". NZ was so excited, if this is kids-meal, his Big Bertha should be huge. Unfortunately it didn't turn out that way. So much for its name - BIG Bertha. That was sheer adult fun night. No, not adult as in xxx-rated or anything close to that. It was simply good company, good conversation and good food. I was there to accompany SZ to be introduced by her married friends to AN. I was technically, a lamp post. But the lamp post got the spot light - AN asked for my number instead. SZ didn't mind at all, in fact was very encouraging. She was clearly not into him. Not tall enough and dark, she said. But there was no date. We planned for one, but didn't get around it. Must have been my outloud burst of "OH MY GOD!" to his confession of having 3 kids from his previous marriage and "dinner at home tonight" reply. Hey, that wasn't an excuse you know, my mom was really cooking that night.
