so for those readers who are beginning to grow concerned about virgin girl (and by girl i mean 35 year old, the one with the gay brother,) she had the first of her three blind dates this sunday. she gave him a mediocre score. apparently he's very rich, earning about 1 million kuai a year. and a nice guy. but when i asked how he looked, she was said, "he seems shorter than me". and i asked," what? is he shorter than you?" and she said "no, he just seemed like it. but he's taller than me." judging from the motions of another chinese coworker who was standing behind her, this means he's fat. oh the chinese, they have such interesting ways of putting things. so he wasn't bad, she said, and she told him that she's very busy for the month of march, but that if he wants to ask her out he should do it after then. this is her very clever way of allowing herself to go on the other two blind dates she has set up, and if they don't wow her, return to short, fat, rich guy number one.
