*she goes inside, looking around for a table before starting for one over by the windows, a booth, putting her bag and umbrella on the bench before sliding into the seat, letting him have the seat that could see most of the place as well as the door*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 11:37:35 AM)
*which he apprecaited he would sit down, grabbing a menu.*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 11:38:11 AM)
*she smiles and grabs one too, looking things over, speaking quietly* Get whatever you want. *she shakes her head* Don't be shy, okay?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 11:38:37 AM)
*looks over at her.* careful.. i can eat alot.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 11:39:21 AM)
*she nods* That's okay. Friday was payday. *she grins, looking back down at the menu* Knock yourself out.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 11:40:02 AM)
*he laughs a little as he looks it over* alright then

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 11:40:49 AM)
*she keeps smiling as she reads it over, deciding, and putting the menu back, looking over at him momentarily before checking to see if a waitress was coming*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 11:44:47 AM)
**an older woman..the waitress...stops at their table, giving them a smile** Afternoon. What can I get for you two? *Jondie orders fried chicken, french fries and a sweet tea* **the waitress jots it down and looks at Rodger**

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 11:48:52 AM)
*he grins* i'll ahve the sirloin stake.. make that two of them and a strawberry milkshake and onion rings.. ..ooh and frenchfries!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 11:50:02 AM)
**the waitress grins** Well...all right. **she nods, jotting it all down and thanking them before going to place the order** *Jondie just grins, nodding approvingly*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 11:51:20 AM)
*rubs his hands together* ooh dont forget the mash potatoes!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 11:51:52 AM)
**the waitress chuckles, nodding to him** Got it, honey. **and yells to the cook to add them as well**

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 11:52:02 AM)
*he was all happy!*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 11:52:11 AM)
You gonna save room for dessert? *grinning still*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 11:52:34 AM)
I totally am!!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 11:53:19 AM)
*she nods, chuckling* Good. *looking down at the table, straightening her paper placemat before looking at him again*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 11:55:23 AM)
*he smiled brightly to her* you look very lovely today jondie.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 11:56:46 AM)
*she smiles back* You don't have to butter me up because I'm treating you to lunch, Rodger. *nervously lifting a hand to smooth her hair down some, self-conscious all of a sudden*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:00:25 PM)
*curious look* but.. i'm speaking the truth

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:01:16 PM)
*her face falls a little, feeling bad now, and looking down at the table again* Well...thanks.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:01:40 PM)
*curious look* i'm sorry.. did i say something wrong?

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:02:00 PM)
*she shakes her head* No. I'm sorry. I was trying to make a joke...*she shrugs*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:02:34 PM)
*he smiles still.*hey now.. jondie.. its all good.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:03:35 PM)
*she lifts her eyes to meet his again, and nods with a tiny smile, thankfully saved by the waitress with their plethora of food*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:05:26 PM)
*he's all about the food, his manners arent bad, not perfect but he doesnt embarrass her as he puts ketchup on everything.*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:08:44 PM)
*she seems unconcerned, just letting him have at it, and hopefully getting a little ketchup for her fries*

Tamara Kim (Jan 30, 2011 12:10:29 PM)
*Tam tam walks into the place and looks at the menu. She smirks faintly*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:11:14 PM)
*nom nom nom, wow its amazing how fast someone can eat a steak, you'd think he was drinking it*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:12:35 PM)
*she grins a little, trying not to watch, but wow...he could pack it away...working on her fried chicken and french fries*

Tamara Kim (Jan 30, 2011 12:13:03 PM)
Expensive wonderful place..... *She tries not to laugh then goes to sit down* Steak, rare and still alive. *Shoos the person away then looks around*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:15:59 PM)
*she can't even finish hers, thinking about keeping space for dessert...she wipes her hands off, sliding what's left of her lunch towards Rodger, in case he's interested in it too*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:17:36 PM)
*he licks his lips* that was good.. whats for desert!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:18:03 PM)
I'm having a banana split, I think. What about you?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:18:20 PM)
ooh that sounds good!

Tamara Kim (Jan 30, 2011 12:18:40 PM)
*She's given her food and chips on the side which Tam builds into a little house before bombing it with steak pieces. Ettiquete be damned*

Tamara Kim (Jan 30, 2011 12:19:04 PM)
*She'd be more fun at Red Lobster though*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:19:06 PM)
They put blackberries and nuts on them here....they're really good. And it's Rocky Road ice cream...*she smiles a little before turning to flag down the waitress and order two for them*

Tamara Kim (Jan 30, 2011 12:19:37 PM)
(Nice for a cheap ass place)

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:20:42 PM)
**it isn't long till the waitress drops the desserts off at the table**

Tamara Kim (Jan 30, 2011 12:21:04 PM)
*Is hungry so the steak vanishes and the chips. Sure she plays with the food but doesn't waste it. She spies that the others have berries and gets a dish of those to herself*

Tamara Kim (Jan 30, 2011 12:21:44 PM)
I do care, yeah I'll pay 5 bucks for it. *Faint grin as she gets her custom berries dessert*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:23:39 PM)
*he's all about it* so.. jonie.. care for a walk after?

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:24:31 PM)
*she only nods in response, for as much as she couldn't finish her actual meal, she seems intent on not missing a morsel of dessert, saving the bananas for last*

Tamara Kim (Jan 30, 2011 12:25:08 PM)
*She eats those too, pays, then walks out without leaving a tip. It wasn't in her mood too* (Cya puppies)

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:25:31 PM)
(weird)

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:25:55 PM)
*well he ate the banana's first, then the icecream mixed with the fruit.*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:26:49 PM)
*she sighs a bit at the end, grinning as she scoops out the last of the melted icecream from the dish and wipes her mouth off, and then looks at him* Where we going?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:27:57 PM)
*he would clean his hands and face* oh.. i dont know.. anywhere would be good

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:29:22 PM)
Maybe down by the river? *she shrugs, starting to dig in the bag for her money* I wish I hadn't brought this bag....

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:29:37 PM)
river would be good.. whats wrong with your bag?

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:30:27 PM)
*she shakes her head* I just shouldn't have brought it. Now I have to carry it around. *pulling out some crumpled bills, and shoving her umbrella in the bag before looking back at him* But that's okay. Are we ready?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:30:59 PM)
*he would gently take the bag and carry it for her* i'm ready now.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:31:31 PM)
No, no...*she tries to take it back as she gets out of the booth* I didn't say that so you'd carry it.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:32:08 PM)
*he'd stand and not let her get it* nah.. think of it as payback for that feast. *he'd start out*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:33:33 PM)
*she clicks her tongue, leaving a generous tip with the money for the bill on the table, making sure the waitress is on her way for it before giving the woman a brief smile and moving after him, following him outside*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:33:50 PM)
*he'd walk out and wait for her* lead on.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:34:37 PM)
*she nods, heading towards the river, slowly so he's not far behind*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:34:59 PM)
*he walks next to her* so.. did i upset you earlier with the compliment? is that something i shouldnt do?

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:35:56 PM)
*she looks at him, shaking her head a little* No...*she sort of shrugs* I'm just...I'm not good at accepting compliments, I guess. *she looks back at him, quieter* Sorry.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:36:11 PM)
*he smiles gently* nothing to be sorry about.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:37:12 PM)
*she shakes her head* No. It's not nice to not say thank you...

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:39:47 PM)
*he shrugs* we're all good.. you do alot for me

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:40:37 PM)
*she shrugs back* Not so much. Food? A coat? You need them, right? *she smiles a little* Makes sense to do it.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:41:48 PM)
well you do it cause your a kind person.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:42:13 PM)
And because you are too.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:43:13 PM)
i dont see how but thank you

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:44:12 PM)
*she looks at him and stops* Why not? You share moon pies and carry my bag. You helped me find the plantation....those were nice.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:44:34 PM)
*puts an arm over her shoulder* ok we're both kind

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:46:54 PM)
*she nods, smiling a little, puasing a moment before resting a hand on hisback and starting along again*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:49:28 PM)
*he thought that was way cool.* hows the teaching going?

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:50:39 PM)
*she nods* Fine. I like my students. Fourth grade is fun. They're still into school, but they already know how to read more or less.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:51:50 PM)
We're starting a unit on New Orleans soon. We're going to tour some places in the city and I hope to have people come in and talk to the students. *she looks at him* Do you think you would?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:53:11 PM)
*blinks* oh wow.. what would you like me to talk about

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:53:38 PM)
What living in New Orleans is like for you.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:55:48 PM)
for you i totally will

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 12:56:50 PM)
Thank you, Rodger. *she smiles at him, patting his back gently*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 12:59:43 PM)
*he preened a moment as they continued walking* so do you get to the plantation much?

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:00:10 PM)
*she shakes her head* Not really. School takes a lot of time.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:01:13 PM)
thats true.. i suppose it would. so.. when do you want me to talk to them?

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:02:07 PM)
Not for a few weeks yet. I still have to fill out the paperwork to have visitors come to the school and all.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:04:12 PM)
alright, i'll have to rehearse what i'm going to say!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:04:54 PM)
*she grins, nodding* And be ready. I'm sure they'll have a lot of questions.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:05:11 PM)
ooh.. i bet they will!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:05:27 PM)
*she keeps smiling at him*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:06:05 PM)
*he seems happy about all that.* *he gives a fake dubous look and picks jondie up in his arms and starts walking like nothing happened.*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:06:50 PM)
*she is certainly surprised again* What are you doing?! *laughing a little* (afk phone)

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:07:00 PM)
*grins* random act of amusement!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:08:34 PM)
*she laughs again* For you or me?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:08:47 PM)
*grins* both? i hope!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:10:26 PM)
*she smiles again, looking at him closely, not saying anything*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:12:51 PM)
*he had a big smile as he walked down the street, holding her in a comfortabel position.* its like a piggy back ride.. only theres no pig and your not on my back.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:14:16 PM)
*she keeps watching him, still smiling, putting her arms around his neck to hold on* Well I feel sort of spoiled. Was lunch -that- good?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:14:50 PM)
*he grins* it totally was.. and in all honesty it givesme an excuse to hold a pretty lady.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:16:27 PM)
*her cheeks turn a little pink, her smile sheepish, quieter* Thanks, Rodger.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:17:06 PM)
*he smiles to her* no.. thank you.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:18:37 PM)
*she grins a little more, and then leans in and gives him a light peck on the cheek and then looking mildly surprised that she actually did that*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:19:03 PM)
*he blinked, he was suprised also.* Oh wow. *he said sort of gooshy like*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:19:58 PM)
*she smirks a tiny bit*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:20:25 PM)
that was cool!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:20:56 PM)
*she chuckles, grinning at him*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:22:36 PM)
*he look down at her, taking her all in.* its the ltitle things that matter

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:23:10 PM)
*she nods, seriously* Like Moon Pies. *smilling some again*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:25:54 PM)
*he laughs* totally like moonpies

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:27:52 PM)
And....hot dogs? *a lightbulb goes no and she grins again* Ketchup!

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:28:31 PM)
*his eyes go wide* ooh thank gaia for ketchup!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:29:02 PM)
*she laughs a little* And what else?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:29:36 PM)
*he thinks* winter coats

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:30:39 PM)
*she nods a little* Oh, and not having to carry your schoolbag.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:31:15 PM)
and banana spilts!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:31:51 PM)
*she grins* Definitely those.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:32:32 PM)
what else?

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:33:28 PM)
*she smiles a tiny bit, with a shrug, watching him again*

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:35:36 PM)

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:35:54 PM)
What's that?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:36:50 PM)
*says quietly* kinfolk named jondie... to which i would be a much colder man.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:39:13 PM)
*she smiles softly as thanks, eventually shaking her head* I wouldn't want you to be cold, Rodger.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:39:37 PM)
thats cause your a kind person... oh thats something else to be thankful for.. kindness.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:40:51 PM)
*she nods* And nice compliments.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:41:40 PM)
*carrys her right down to one of the docks and sets her down like she was fragile thing on earth.*

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:42:15 PM)
And rides. *she smiles up at him* Thank you.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:42:51 PM)

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:44:10 PM)
*she nods, looking out at the water too* It is...though I don't know how to swim. *she shrugs and looks at him* Do you?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:44:34 PM)
*blinks* I totally do.

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:45:09 PM)
*she nods some, looking back at the river* Is it fun? Seems like it would be.

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:45:21 PM)
*he nods* I could show you!

Jondie Pick (Jan 30, 2011 1:45:52 PM)
*she looks back at him, raising her eyebrows at him* Isn't it a little cold..?

Rodger Shanks (Jan 30, 2011 1:46:02 PM)
