you write a lot like my friend... oddly enough her name's cathy. anyways... you went to the restaurant with red checkered table cloth and plates of pasta that you share or you went to the olive garden? the olive garden is a little crowded... i would recommend getting some restaurant that's good but fairly empty. that's just my personal preference. i also like empty movie theatres, go figure.

Seriously try some restuarant down by Irvine and Newport, there's a cheesecake factory in Fashion Island where you can sit outdoors on this little cute balcony. I had coffee there with one of my friends there not too long ago. :)

Really? My name is spelled with a K though :p No, I went to OG for the date. yea, it was a bit crowded. I'd prefer it a bit more empty too :)

Clask and Cleaver on University Ave and Iowa Ave is pretty good...if shes into big bloody steaks and prime ribs. Mmmm, must go back to school there... in Riverside that is..

If she rejects that, at least theres a IHOP across the street:frown:

But if all else fails, theres 2 Olive Gardens in the area... One down highway 215/60/whatever its called now in Mo.Valley and one up in San Bernardino (i saw it on my way to staples to pull a major PM...)
