I don't want to go anywhere I have to mkae reservations for. I'm not a restaurant nut. I like the drinks, and they taste the same everywhere.

You should wave to her and give her a thumbs'-up. I hear people do that to hot women all the time, though personally I cannot imagine many things quite so retarded. |

I don't run. I see it happen. However, maybe LA/Dallas/wherever people are nicer than NYC-area people. |

You don't pore over the Zagat's to go to the next-best-thing?
Heh.
I used to be a foodie in Boston. Not so much here. |

That's excellent. Yesterday, I was jostling with this dude getting out of the subway, and he seemed pretty pissed off that I wasn't letting him get ahead of me. Finally, when he couldn't take it any more, he angrily spat, "Where are YOU going?" to which I sweetly replied, "Ahead of you!"
The absence of profanity clearly threw him, because his only reply was, "Uh... Very funny."
Talk about your withering retorts!

Don't burst her bubble. I'm convincing her on PM that when they yell "Timmy!" it's code for "I want you." |

Thumbs-up, but only if it's a very nice, very good, and elegant restaurant -- not some loud, cavernous, pretentious place. If a three-star in Paris that has been serving graciously for 300 years wants me to wear a jacket and tie, I'm fine with that. |

If the waiters are chubby, thumbs up!
In general, three thumbs down.

Until you learn to relax and deal with your sign-up sheet hypertension issues, that third thumb is always going to be down.
