My daughter had a drink also. She did a Manhattan with black cherry Fresca as a mixer.
We recently joined a local builders association, which includes construction companies, banks, title companies, and anyone that does like garage doors, windows, etc. My coworker's wife's aunt is the face of the organization. They do monthly events and the other night was trivia night at one of the bars. Only my coworker, his wife, and I went. We thought we could be on the same team, but teams were random.
I got teamed up with a guy that does garage doors and his wife, he recently did doors on a house we built so he knew who I worked for, a lady that works for a title company who knows my boss, and a young girl from a bank. They loved me because I immediately knew the answers to all the first round questions. You had to write them down on a piece of paper and turn it in to the host, no shouting them out.
We kicked ass for a while, but ended up in 4th place out of 8 teams. One team named themselves 'We Checked Google' and they were checking Google. They ended up winning of course. I went in nervous because I knew the teams were random ahead of time, but it worked out and had a great time. My coworker's wife's aunt, whom I never met before, came up to me and hugged me, thanked me for coming and wants to see me at more events.

We went to Something Rotten last night at TCR. I agree with @KidSilverhair that it is one of the best productions they have done in a long time of not ever. Greg continues to be a freaking chameleon and knocking every role out of the park, was nice to catch up with him after.
Highly suggest seeing this show in the future,

We do trivia once a week at Pins & Pixels in Johnston. Used to do it at Spectators in Altoona, but they stopped doing trivia there. Four rounds of trivia...one general, one picture, one themed question round, and a song round. Two weeks ago, the themed round was WWII. We just looked at my husband and handed over the pen and paper. I was happy to get the answers myself before he wrote them down. This last week the themed round was 2000's sports. Again, pen and paper over to husband, got all 10 questions right. I think the one we knew that maybe no one else knew was the first Canadian to win the Masters in 2003. (I knew that one off the top of my head)
All the questions were random subjects. I didn't get the sports one. Which 2 teams have lost 5 super bowls? Patriots & Broncos
I got the movie quote one before the guy even finished saying it. I'm sure that's no surprise to anyone. "Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'".
The very first question was which government agency investigates counterfeit money? Secret service
Young girl from the bank……….you getting coffee with her sometime?. I mean the coworkers wife’s aunt has the hots for you but thought maybe you preferred them a little younger.
Well it's about a 10 year age difference either way and I know for a fact the aunt is single. She did say she wanted to put me on a committee.
Insert why not both gif.
I find it hard to handle one woman at a time.

He's young he can probably do the juggling act for a bit and get away with it.
He probably could but it depends on what he wants in life. I was lucky and didn't juggle. My wonderful wife has put up with me for almost 37 years.But he needs to get the dates in to find the one. Congrats on the long run I admire it.
The bank girl was pretty, but I don't think I could date a girl younger than my sister.
My sister and her fiance were telling me at Christmas that I should date his cousin. She's a pretty blue-eyed redhead that's my age. I should ask them about her.
Red head you're a brave man. I can definitely see the attraction though.
Give it a shot. Worst thing is she says no. Then it’s her loss. You could be the bank girls sugar daddy or the aunt lady could be your sugar momma. Either way, give one of the three a shot.
