I did, with a bonked head and a bruised butt. I guess it was a good thing I was living alone so nobody else saw it and it was just my ego to remember it. Well, my ego and now you hearing it.
[With his free hand he finished his wine, pouring himself some more.]
These days? Actually yeah, this is pretty much how it goes. Maybe I should diversify my hobbies. Then again, if I keep meeting people like you, who am I to complain?
[Two can play the flirting game.]
Nah, teaching takes a lot of brain power. Thinking needs calories. I remember always hearing to get a good night's sleep and eat a good breakfast on testing days for that reason.
Ha. No. I know someone who is a nurse, but you're the only one who's come out of retirement for the city. Although I suspect you never really stopped even if no you longer got paid for it.
I will accept that we both need more calories than we got and that it both matters. Even if I still think yours matters more than mine.
Salads and pastas are good choices though, so I can't knock that. Most nights my meals are thirty minute ones. I'm gonna brag and say they're still good, but nothing too fancy. I save those for when I have company or I'm stress cooking.
Meals that take more time to develop their flavors and also have more components to them to round out the dish. Curries, soups, roasted poultry and vegetables, braised meats, homemade pastas and slow-cooked sauces, things like that.
Hawaiian shorts seem pretty comfortable from how they've been described to me. Though I just have gym shorts on hand, unfortunately. My closet isn't all that colorful.

Care for another glass?

Sure, thank you.

Kudos to the saucier of the night. It tastes great.

[laughs but also digs into their food. He’s quite easy to be around, especially when he’s not bleeding across her apartment]
I think you did an excellent job with the rest of it. I only had a banana for lunch, while I’m here lecturing you to eat more.

See? You can't knock me for my eating if you're gonna live like that. Physician, heal thyself.

I absolutely can, I am pretty sure I’ve burned fewer calories than you have today.

Sure but not as many as fighting criminals in the streets: you still win.

Either way, at least we are both having a real meal tonight. Sometimes I fall into the habit of having way too many basic salads and pastas.
