Some people just are more last minute. I rarely get to plan more than moments in advance because of work and family stuff. It isn't so much that you should expect everyone to be a planner, but you should let it be known that you are and things have to be arranged more in advance for you.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
That is exactly what I just told him. I slept in and have made brunch for me and my son since I had not heard anything.
I think he may work weekends and has just not said that.
I am firm on wanting a first meet with people I do not know to be during the day and he just asked what my week looked like.
Well, I guess sorting out how to communicate well enough to arrange the first meeting is a suitable first level for dating.
I don't know if I can make myself do anything today. It's not super hot, I'm not dreadfully tired, I just want to stay curled up in bed and read.
I had let him know that I thought meeting in the middle between us was good and that I could get anywhere in the area, but did not know of any restaurants. He said "I'll find one" and so I left it, against all my bossy and planney tendencies because I am trying not to be pushy control freak.
I can do spontaneous unknowing details stuff with people I know, because I know 1) they will be there and 2) I will enjoy myself. It is much harder for me to do it/if not impossible with an unknown entity.
We are making plans for next weekend. I am setting a firm time and will nail down a location TODAY.
Honestly, someone who thinks last-minute plans are the way to act on best behavior (which is what I assume people are doing before you've even met) is probably not someone for you, unless you are willing/interested in being the boss of everything.
You guys, I went to my favorite taco place and they made a batch of posole, so I got some to go since I wanted a taco & some too and...so much posole! They gave me like a quart! It's very good, but I think I'm gonna have to freeze some.
And now I should gear up to go to the water ballet. It's Sharkspeare.
I am setting a firm time and will nail down a location TODAY.
Good call. Nothing wrong with planniness.
Sharkspeare! How wonderful.
I have done All The Things! Saw family, hosted friends, went to a concert, and have even washed one load of sheets in order to return the borrowed air mattress. Phew!
We went to a 50th anniversary party today for one of my mom's cousins, and ltc charmed everyone. She danced and hugged everyone and was just so delightful.
