Another Yards in Bloom challenge

Yesterday the Yards in Bloom person dropped off my invitation to the awards brunch, which is next Saturday at 10:00 am. The RSVP deadline is tomorrow, and I have two tickets.

Hmmmmmm...

Seriously, I haven't had a date in 4 1/2 years, what are the odds of finding someone to come to the brunch with me, let alone by tomorrow? Of course it doesn't have to be a "date". I could bring a friend. Should I say I will come with a guest, and then invite a friend? Or say I will come with a guest, and scurry all week to try and find an arm-candy to come with me? What are the odds of that? Or should I just go by myself?

There is this really handsome RCMP member ("cop", for the non-Canadians) that I like to look at. In fact I've been looking for crimes to report ever since I met him. You have no idea how little crime really goes down when you're looking for some. So I could find out if this guy is single, and if he is, I could ask him to be my escort for the brunch. Tell him it's community service, he's doing a good deed for the perpertually single, etc. It's a brunch, not a dinner, so that doesn't put him in an awkward position. But of course he's probably not single, because they rarely are. And even if he was, it would probably just creep him out.

I suppose I'll just go by myself.
