[nagdu] question

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (IT)]

This may work for boys, but you may meet a man inpromptu that you'd
really like to spend more time with. 
I hope you do. 
Remember that addage, "There's Mr. Right, and there's Mr. Right Now.". 
The two can be very different. 
And, I'd use my cane in the rest-room, ther isn't enough soap in the
world to clean my hands after feeling my way around. You can use the
cane quietly and not make a "clunking racket".

You make a good point.  There have been situations when Dad was with me
and I needed to use the ladies' room.  In those cases, my dad would
bring me to the door, and I would go into the bathroom myself and feel
my way around, the same thing I would be doing with my cane, except
without making a clunking racket.  In the case of a cute boy, I have not
met anyone I would want to go out with yet.  But if I did, it would be
easy enough to show him in advance of a date, how to guide me.  If he
was not enough of a gentleman to guide me, I'd dump him.  (Just
kidding).  Seriously though, it is extremely rare that I go anywhere
without my dog, and I seriously would dump any boy who didn't like my
dog!
