Eddie Jr.
I went to 4 events last night and was a little hung over this morning when I realized I’d given my number out to a really young guy, Eddie Jr., at the Cadillac party. (The photo at the right is of him, his dad and Jadakiss.) We were in line at the bathroom and instead of the awkwardness of saying no when he asked for my number, I gave it to him. He asked if he could call me sometime and I said, “Sure.” I figured he was never going to call me anyway so what’s the harm?!
So at 6pm today when I was driving away from the job I’d just quit, I had a million phone calls to make and was listening to my messages when call waiting beeped.
“Hello?”
“Hey, Catherine?”
“This is Kathleen.”
“Ahhh. Hey girl. Watcha doing?”
“I’m good. Who is this?”
“It’s Eddie Jr.”
You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.
“Hi Eddie! Did you have fun last night?”
“Yeah. I had a real good time. You?”
“I had so many parties last night! It was such a late night and I had a little too much to drink. What about you? Did you go anywhere else?”
“Nah, man. I got faded at the Cadillac party with my dad and that was it.”
“Oh. Well, I’m pretty surprised you called. Most people say they will but then they never do.”
“I’m not like that.”
“Obviously. But I didn’t know that.”
“You wanna go out sometime?”
“Oh my goodness. I was not aware that you wanted to go out when you asked for my number. Maybe that’s naïve of me. I can’t go out with you though. I’m married. But give me your email and I’ll get you on the guest list for different parties and we’ll hang out then. You’re obviously single, so I’ll hook you up with some of my girlfriends!”
Oh lord, you say. BUT WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO?? So ladies, who’s ready to be fixed up??
