Transcript excerpt
My date gave me a lock of his hair. Yay. I went on a duet date this weekend. Before the date, we were talking, and tier talking about collections. And he collects guitar picks, and he's like, what do you collect? I'm like, I'm trying to collect all this this hair, but people won't give me their hair because they're afraid I'm gonna put a a curse on it. Banter party of two, you can be seated now at at the better restaurant. We did meet up that day, and he brought me his hair in a napkin. I put it in this bag no I wouldn't lose it, but no one's ever done that for me before. This is the hair. So handsome. Oh my gosh. And look. This is my hair. Look good how cute we are together. Duet, more like duo of hair. You might be like, oh my gosh. Did you bring him a guitar pick? No. Next day. I would say the duet day was a success.
