Where's Whitney's Soup?
 
I made one last night.

It started yesterday afternoon. One of my coworkers (whom, believe it or not, I actually like) had been incessantly telling me about one of his female friends that I remind him of. He finally brought her by my office for us to meet. Sure enough, she is a petite Asian with a semi-bland appearance that you can’t tell right away if she’s good at math. I couldn’t wait to find out how wrong my coworker was about the 2 of us seemingly super-similar girls.
Wait for it…
He was right! The Asian girl was the perfect on–paper BFF. We have everything in common. We’re like twins.

After our initial  OMG-me-too  meet ‘n’ greet, we exchange phone numbers and make dinner plans for that evening.

Dinner happens. So does going for ice cream, browsing and discussing books at an independent book store, walking by and through certain buildings to admire their architecture, and proposing to hang out EVERY Tuesday. 
Then…
Both our tummies start to hurt. She makes the first note of it, “Oh, man, I’m starting to feel that ice cream,” while rubbing her belly. I follow with, “Yeah, me too. I think I had too much.” She says, “Yeah, you had A LOT.”
Rest assured, we will not be hanging out every Tuesday. I blame her for the fat that has been added to me from eating that ice cream.

Doesn't she know you have to wait until the third date to comment on someone's ice cream intake?
