In other medical news, it's OK to cancel a first date with someone I'm not that interested in because I have to go pick up meds for my cat, right?
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think you can just stop right there.

I mean, I don't even know him, so of course I'm not that interested! He might be great.

Totally, Jesse. You could reschedule if you want. That seems like a valid reason to change plans, although you may want to leave the specifics unspecified...
I'm pulling the trigger on the convection oven AND a deep fryer because if I miss this opportunity and it never comes again (who knows if we will keep this license or if they will extend the courtesy of employee discounts if we do or if I will even have this job in the future?) it would haunt me. So. I'll save by making all my food from scratch...

I specified the specifics! Because it is what it is, you know? I'm all about showing people who I am.
And you are clearly making the right call re: purchases. They are a lifetime investment!

It's sort of a ridiculous excuse if you actually TELL him that. But otherwise you do you.

You know what? That's absolutely right. Well done.

And if he goes "Oh, I totally understand, I hope the kitty is OK," you know he's worth keeping in mind for the future.

TBH if someone said "I can't I have to get my cat medicine" I'd probably assume she was blowing me off unless she was also apologizing profusely and offering a different date...

He totally didn't believe that I genuinely want to reschedule, but I do!
