White Roses

Posted in Dating Diaries at 3:50 pm by Anna

Okay, I walk into work & they are waiting for me. Two dozen white roses. My first thought was the hottie, but then I thought, “No, they’re white, it’s probably from a friend.” My father is on a trip abroad, I don’t think it’s him…

I look at the card, and it is the hottie. Original to send white roses I think to myself, or maybe LA is out of red roses - like a few years ago when the entire town ran out of Botox during the Oscar’s.

The card says, “Look forward to knowing you better.” Sweet and to the point. I like that.

I call to thank him and got his voicemail. He texts me back, saying he’s in a meeting and he’ll call me later about tonight. (Yes, I did accept his invitation to dinner tonight.)

He’s picking me up from work and we’re going straight to dinner at a small romantic restaurant on the beach, near me. I think it’s old fashioned and refreshing - so many times in LA and other big cities, we meet at the restaurant or destination, which makes sense especially in LA because there is so much driving. But being picked up and driven there just seems so perfect for Valentine’s Day.

Several months ago I blogged about a major shopping splurge, including 2 pairs of Manolo Blahnik’s, which I could not really afford but bought anyway. Well, today I’m wearing the gold ones…a well placed investment after all!

I forgot to say …I am very susceptible and easily seduced by the way a man smells, and I loooove his smell….
