me…Mrs. Davey Montrell
Yes, you read correctly. I have the potential to become Mrs. Davey Montrell. He emailed me and asked me out on a date. We’re going out on Saturday night. If this works out, I owe you – BIG TIME.

Awesome. Not only could you be hob nobbing with all of the celeb types, but you’ll owe me. Have fun – be safe!!! And, make sure you call or email when you get home.

Subject: Set up?
Hey there. Since your (thankfully!) recent break up (again!) with Evan, I haven’t heard you talk much about dating anyone. Was wondering if you would let me set you up with someone? We have a sister agency called Foxmeade and I recently met a managing director named Austin who is TOTALLY awesome. Now you may be asking yourself, why doesn’t Renee go out with him herself? Well, I would absolutely consider it, but I NEVER mix work with pleasure and we will be working together on a few projects. So, you’re thinking, “well, what’s he like?” He’s very savvy, creative and engaging. Next, you may be asking yourself, “so what does this guy with a ‘great personality’ look like?” He’s very tall and quite handsome with dark brown hair, warm brown eyes and a really gentle smile. That leads you right to “If he’s so great, why is he single,” right? Good question. He was in a serious relationship and his girlfriend got an amazing job offer in Europe. They tried the long distance thing, but it was just too hard. He’s been on his own for about four months. So, I thought to myself, “who is a charming, successful, beautiful and smart woman who would be worthy of such a fine man” and you IMMEDIATELY sprung to mind. So, what do you think? Up for it?

Well, you certainly know how to sell something. Your clients are VERY lucky. And you certainly know how to flatter a girl. But, really, I don’t know.

Oh, come on. What have you got to lose? It’s one night and I vouch for him. He’s a really good guy. He mentioned that one of their partners’ clients is hosting a big party to launch a new casino in Palm Springs. It’s a casino-themed event in Hollywood and supposedly some celebrities will be there. He needs a date. Say yes!?!

Subject: He is a small, small man
When I say small, I mean small in every sense of the word. First, this man is not the 5’8” he claims to be in his profile. No, he’s lucky if he cracks the 5’3” barrier. Not that I’m judging. I’m short. So height has never really been a huge relationship factor for me. But 5’8”? No way. Even more important, he is a small-minded, petty, rude, little man. I would say he has a Napoleon complex, but he couldn’t get a part as “big” as Napoleon. And as he would justify it, he would much rather delve into a smaller character so “it’s not all there on the page.”
So, we’re sitting at dinner (he took me to The Red Room) and over walks this couple who look very Hollywood. He’s middle-age, balding with a round belly and she looks like her parents let her stay out late on a school night…a collagen-lipped, silicone-injected, bleach blonde-headed bimbo doll. He stands up, gives a few air kisses and proceeds to chat for 10
