Shayla - Date #21: Train Wreck*

Yeah we had some trouble with the camera. 6 shots and this is the best one. Enjoy.

Name*: Train Wreck (I should probably say something about this since it seems like such an awful name. Train Wreck made a CD that he titled "Train Wreck". Train wrecks are awful but you can't stop looking. This CD has embarrassing music but you can't stop listening. And yes...I knew, and loved, the songs on it. Oops!

Date Description: Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and probably my favorite meal to eat out for! Now, can I just say, Mimi's Cafe has the best breakfasts EVER?! Plus they bring you more liquid than you could possibly consume with one meal. But with such great company it was pretty much the perfect breakfast.

Best Quality: Train Wreck I think must be a professional people person! There is an art to getting to know people and he has it!

Highlight of Date: Conversation. Bet you couldn't guess that one! I liked how Train Wreck was sincerely interested in how I have grown from the dating race. That won him points for sure. And he let me brag about how cute my nephew is. Double points.

What I Admired: I admired Train Wreck's personality overall. Honestly, he reminded me so much of one of my best friends in college (that's you seaweed*) that I couldn't help but admire everything about him. Great guy!

Describe the date in one word: Is there a word for the opposite of a train wreck??

How I know him: Blind date set up by Hawaiian Haystack*!!

Thanks, Train Wreck, for your sincerity.

*Names have been changed.
