from what i am told argentines are good liars. (and i have been told this more than once....by argentines)
i on the other hand am a bad liar; i need practice.
so today i'm with a student that i get strange "i wouldn't mind taking you home" vibes from. he asks what i'm doing after class. i anticipate he'll ask me to dinner so i say i have another class ( i didn't, just me trying to lie). we end class and he actually ends up asking me to dinner another night this week. i couldn't think of a lie fast enough so i said maybe. ( i don't want to put myself in a situation)
when i leave his office he says that he's leaving too. we ride the elevator down together. the doors open at the lobby. when i go to get off, he puts his hand on my arm suggesting that we will continue down another floor to the parking garage.
i accept the ride, forgetting that i previously lied. when he asks me where i'm going i say the name of my neighborhood. he asks 'i thought you had to teach another class in the centro?'
bad liar.

Liar.
bueno, gracias.
lie, lay, lying, laying...i need practice on these too.
Gee, what a nice note Donigan left.
Why don't you want to go to dinner with this guy? It's only dinner ;)
which guy? the student or donigan?
the student is creepy and does not seem to hide his intentions...donigan is not creepy at all. i enjoy his company.
the student reminds me of the days where there was a sly plan of "company lunches to "get to know you""... where the words "get to know you" really translated into "get to know the design of your pants"
I meant the student, but if he reminds you of Mr. Shifty, then head for the hills! Dinner with Donigan sounds like a better option.
Oh good, I thought I was the old married guy you are trying to avoid.
no way jose, not trying to avoid you at all. i honestly enjoy our time together.
Happy Jose says that is good to hear.
