Initially we had been discussing the dining precinct on the river front, and I explained to him that I hadn’t been to many of the great places along the Brisbane River, despite working in the area for six months. He suggested that we should get something in the area and I agreed.

However on the morning of our date, he asked me if I had tried a particular sushi vendor between our respective buildings, and when I said I hadn’t he said that we should go there as it was one of the best in the city.

We met just outside his building, and walked down to the venue – it was a takeaway place down an alley. And whilst the sushi looked great, it was a poorly thought-out choice, as it was a rainy day. We ended up taking our sushi to a nearby foodcourt to eat. Not a good start.

But the conversation was fine and we used up his entire hour lunch break quite easily. We discussed iPhone apps, families, and spent a lot of time talking about exercise for some reason.

We walked back to his building where he then told me he’d like to do this again. On the weekend. I said I was quite busy. He asked me what I was doing. I said I was going to the movies the next morning with Magic and Macca. He said “Well it won’t start until 10am at the earliest”, so I agreed to have breakfast with him. It felt a little bit like a hostage negotiation but I was very happy to see how it panned out. It wasn’t a complete fail as far as first dates go.

However at one point he did say “You aren’t as SCARY TALL as I thought you would be.” I don’t think that’s a very good compliment.
