Hot Cad?
On Saturday I was on the other side of the Golden Gate, so I met my Marin friend for a drink in Sausalito. We went to essentially the only bar in town, a dive bar filled with half yuppies/half alcoholics, almost all guys. She immediately spotted a guy that she has seen at the farmer's market (obviously, he's one of the yuppies) and has nicknamed "Hot Dad". Before we knew it, HD and his friend approached. He certainly lives up to his nickname, with amazing thick wavy hair and a 7 year old son. He owns a restaurant (now that I am well into my thirties, chefs are my new musicians- I know better, but can't resist.) Like every man before him who has ever had women describing him as hot, he was charming and fun, but totally self-absorbed and most likely a cad. BUT, when talk turned to the upcoming Wilco concert, he insisted that "we should go". Okay, twist my arm... He gave me his card (I was going to give him my number, but he pushed the card back towards me and said "just email me." See?) So I did, halfway not expecting a response. But he actually replied right away, suggesting dinner this week. He has been funny and friendly, and totally on it. Hmm... perhaps less of a rogue than I originally thought? Here's hoping! The date is Friday.

I was thinking about this as I have dealt with a couple of my own HDs....you remember in Jerry Maguire, when Jerry and Rod are talking about dating single mothers? Rod tells him 'single mothers don't DATE...' and I think in some ways the same applies for single dads, H or not.
Just thinkin'.
If the dude has a restaurant for chrissakes, I have hopes :).
