don't date the nanny

so, five years ago today, i met jake at Q's in santa barbara. holly and i went downtown for fiesta.
it turned out that jake knew a co-worker of mine and had watched her baby for her. though this is the only time in his life he has ever baby-sat, holly misunderstood what i told her and assumed i was interested in dating a "manny."

but it did give him some credibility with me, so i gave him my phone number before we left.

i was super excited because he was cute, tall and smart.
i really wasn't expecting to meet anyone
of that description!
