WHAT DO YOU KNOW FOR SURE?
"Tell me, what do you know for sure?"
His question caught me off guard. Trying to be polite but at the same time buying time I asked him,
"About what? You? Me? Politics? Religion?
I could tell he was not about to let me off the hook. Looking at me with a deep dark pensive look he sighed and said,
"You know what I mean, what you know for sure about ANY of those things."
This seemed like a new kind of pick-up line but I decided to play along. Nothing to lose and a chance to exercise my mind while I sat here at the bar waiting for my friend who always ran a half hour late.
"Well, I know for sure I am sitting here talking to you and it's unlikely a dream."
He smiled and said, "Yes, go on give me a list. I collect these and it would help me out. You don't mind if I record these do you?"
I started to tell him that I minded very much, but stopped myself and told him,
"No, that's okay. Don't know if I have much to offer, but what the heck, I'll try. Give me a few minutes. I'll write them down for you instead, then you can read them into your recorder."
Grabbing a legal pad from my briefcase I printed:
WHAT I KNOW FOR SURE
1. I know for sure I love honesty.
2. I know for sure I love beauty.
3. I know for sure I love my work.
4. I know for sure that gentleness brings joy.
5. I know for sure I love a good meal.
6. I know for sure I love beautiful music.
7. I know for sure I love good sex.
8. I know for sure I'm telling you more than I should.
9. I know for sure I am tired right now.
10. I know for sure you're handsome.
I handed the pad back to my bar stool companion and watched his face as he read my list. He smiled as he read it and soon we were discussing the list much against my better judgement. For sure I was tired and not thinking clearly. However, the more we talked the more alert I became.
By the time we got to #7 we were both feeling our drinks and acting rather silly. My cell rang. I tried to answer it in my best professional sounding voice. It was my habitually late friend canceling our meeting.
By this time I found that I was enjoying my new found friend. Instead of being disappointed, I was actually glad I had been stood up. When I told my companion he seemed delighted and said,
"Great, stay here. You can have dinner with me instead! By the way my name is Jason."
Both of us being very hungry we immediately left for the hotels dinning room and were seated next to each other in a big comfortable oversize booth.
Jason turned out to be just as delightful of a dinner companion as he had been in the bar at Happy Hour.
Long before dessert we were deep into discussing #7 on my list, "I know for sure I love good sex"
It didn't take long before the vibs between us grew really hot; I couldn't keep myself from telling him,
"I need to add at least one more to "THE LIST". Are you ready for this? Do you have your pen?
Here it is:
"I know for sure that your leg touching mine under the table is turning me on big time and making me very wet."
