Many years ago I dated Chaz. Chaz was an okay guy, a bit boring. But otherwise okay. I actually knew Chaz through a family connection and I knew all of Chaz's family before we ever went out. They were GREAT! Looking back, I realize I probably liked Chaz's family more than I did him. I loved his parents, I loved his siblings and his nieces and nephews. Unfortunately, to keep them I would have had to keep Chaz as well.
I eventually broke up with Chaz, mainly because he bored the stew out of me.
But for this blog, I'll share one of my earlier dates with Chaz...
I actually dated Chaz when I worked at a bank. (A bank!) So, when Chaz came to pick me up one evening for a date he actually came through the drive thru where I was working shortly before we closed. He cashed a check. He cashed a small check. He cashed a $20 check. (It was the 90's so $20 went a bit further then it does today.) But still it was a $20 check. My co-worker cashed his check and when she checked his balance to see if he had enough money to cover the check I casually leaned over to look at the balance. Chaz had several thousand in his checking account. And he cashed a $20 check.
Chaz went and parked in the employee lot and waited on me. I quickly closed out my drawer and went out to meet him. We left and went to Chattanooga. He wanted to have dinner at Shoney's (it was the EARLY 90's.) I readily agreed. We had dinner and then ordered strawberry pie for dessert. Yum! My fav! Afterwards we drove to the movie theater. (Okay, I should tell you that at this point in my life I was a college graduate, but I was still working at my college job for minimum wage.) He had cashed a check, I was basically broke all of the time and I didn't have more than $2 on me. We went to the theater, asked for the tickets and he realized he didn't have enough money.
What?! You have several thousand dollars in your bank account, but you didn't cash a big enough check to cover your date! Ugh! Unfortunately, my $2 didn't pay for the tickets. We had to leave. (Being that this was in my early 20's.) I was SO horribly embarrassed! The girl at the ticket counter just shook her head at me and gave me a pitying look. Geez!
I guess that was the beginning of the end of Chaz.
