Meeting the Friends
Oh My God! I met this friend of Thomas yesterday, we went to a romantic restaurant called Wilshire in Santa Monica for dinner. We sat on the candlelit patio, with the cool ocean breeze and Thomas’ hand slowly rubbing my thigh.
And then there she was. Quite possibly the most obnoxious LA brat I’ve ever met. Her name was Candie. She had bleached blonde platinum hair, huge boobs literally falling out of her shirt and so many beads she could have run a jewelry shop from our table.
She had this *loud* voice and she must have asked the waiter 12 questions about each dish on the menu before narrowing it down to 3, then to 2 then 1. Then onto the entrees. I was so embarressed. She talked about herself the entire time - like non-stop. And she tried to one-up everything we said.
Thomas thought it was funny, but didn’t seem to mind…I was seriously considering a tall glass of rat poison.
They say you can judge a man by his friends. I believe that is true to a certain extent, but I’m trying not to judge him just by one friend. I better meet some others…quick!

Wait, so he invited her to join you guys, or did you just run into her there and chat with her for a while? What in the world?!… She sounds positively atrocious. My guess is he doesn’t like his women that way or he wouldn’t be with you, therefore, I wouldn’t worry too much about his judge of character. She might be “grandfathered” in from a former life or something. ;o)

You guys, I am all too serious about this girl - she is real and I wasn’t even exxagerating!!! We didn’t just run into her, he asked me if he could invite a friend who has been wanting to get together with him. He said he’s known her since they were teenagers (ie they had a summer fling, but he won’t admit it?)

I couldn’t understand some parts of this article Meeting the Friends, but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.
