:24:02
and we're all still 17.
:24:04
Tell me about it.
:24:07
You wouldn't change anything. I mean,
your life is pretty much on track, right?
:24:12
Well, the question's not fair. I mean, who
wouldn't profit from a second go around?
:24:18
So, what about Bud Silverglide?
:24:21
The dentist with the charming little daughter?
:24:24
He's a wonderful guy. If anything
ever did happen and you hit it off,
:24:28
you could establish something solid.
:24:31
Not more unrealistic pipe dreams
that can't help but wind up badly.
:24:34
I'm sorry. Did that come out harsh?
:24:38
The truth is, I'm nervous.
I wanna meet someone so desperately,
:24:41
but when the chance comes along,
I just panic.
:24:45
It won't be a date. I'll make a dinner party
and we'll all be there to support you.
:24:50
I'll invite a number of nice guests
and he'll be one of them,
:24:53
and if you meet and hit if off, then great,
and if not, then no obligation.
:24:59
Yeah. When he hears my story...
My God. I come with such baggage.
:25:03
- Well, don't go in with a defeatist attitude.
- Yeah. First see if you even like him.
:25:07
If he's as nice as Cassie's painting him...
:25:10
He's a good catch,
if I can speak pragmatically,
:25:13
especially for you,
cos he's got his feet on the ground.
:25:16
If I find him at all attractive, I think I should
just tell him my whole story right off.
:25:22
Or do you think it's better to wait? Let him
take the hook first, and then run with it?
:25:27
God. I can't believe I'm even asking this.
:25:31
I'm already strategising.
I haven't met this guy yet.
:25:34
If we're gonna do this,
it has to be completely informal,
:25:37
cos I can't handle it any other way.
I don't have any dressy clothes anyhow.
:25:43
Funny part of that is,
as elegant as I can look -
:25:46
and you know, I can look pretty stylish -
:25:50
men find women sexier in casual attire.
:25:54
It's true. I could wear my hair down and loose.
:25:58
That's enticing already.
At least it's not intimidating.
