Shayla - Date #11: Drew Carey*

Name*: Drew Carey

Date Description: Our date got off on the right foot for sure! It started with both of us wondering where the other was and finally figuring out we were at different restaurants. Apparently there are 2 Denny's on 7200 S...who knew?! Denny's is Drew's favorite restaurant and he has had a shocking amount of memories take place there. Drew is easy to talk to and has had a lot of adventures in his life. Another simple, fun date.

Best Quality: Drew is a very funny man! And even better, he made me feel funny, which I love! He laughed at all the correct times, you'da thought he had cue cards!

Highlight of Date: Our waitress said raisins tasted like bloated maggots. I about died laughing right then and there!

What I Admired: I admire Drew's good attitude. There are a lot of things that life hands us that would give us every right to be negative, but Drew has mastered the art of being positive!

How do you know the person you're on a date with? Blind date set up by the lovely one who explains it all!

Describe the date in one word? Charismatic

Thanks for all the laughs Drew!

Nicole said...: I've known *Drew for a good 16 years now. I can't recall ever going on a date with him, but I have friends who have. Great guy, sharp wit, scored well on the ACT, and an extremely good writer...he randomly showed up in a recent dream doing a karaoke duo of "Total Eclipse of the Heart" with me (random, I know...but so is he) He was in my then-fiance (now husband's) BYU ward when we were dating, and blushed when I called him his old high school nickname (which is like unto a home appliance) Am I suprised that Denney's is his favorite restaurant? No...I'm pretty sure I've been there at the same time as him at some point since jr. high.; January 14, 2010 at 3:23 AM

Larissa said...: The "Amateur night at the Apollo" vet sure does make for a great date story! Now, if you'd have had a fried Mars bar, he'd have been yours forever...; January 15, 2010 at 2:36 PM
Kim Whitefield said...: I about rolled off the couch reading your waitress' comment. Way to advertise your daily special. "Today we have raisin bread, a hearty wheat specked with bloated maggots."; February 5, 2010 at 6:04 PM
