"Game of Thrones"  Hello fellow writer! My name is Sandra. I am one of the sly foxes.Title: First Dates First Impression: You had me with that first sentence. "I woke wearing nothing but a single sock." Cue the eerie, heavy-note mystery music, or the theme from The Twilight Zone. Of course, I had to wade into the rest of your story. You convince me you are not yourself in that you are groggy and apparently in a strange(ers) place. The missing sock is the least of your conundrums. The explanations unfold without any peril to your person.What needs your attention: "And that man seem to be staring at my date..." I believe it should be 'seemed'. I will not debate or insist upon the placement of commas. They serve their purpose, but then again they are a contentious punctuation. Perhaps sprinkle liberally, or not. What I liked best: Your humour is subtle and understated. It does not whack me over the head. Just the manner in which you tell the tale is laid back. Oh shucks, my sock is missing. What's-her-name brings me a coffee. Why was I not more concerned about the whereabouts of my other clothing? Shoulder shrug followed by an offhand comment: " The two couples who left the restaurant weren't the same pairing as those who'd entered two hours earlier." I did snicker at your worries re the type 'Jake' might possibly be. Thanks for the advice. I shall endeavour to never ever wear a dog-slobber sock. What a relief that dog-sock-coffee-angel has a name and that you remember it.Overall Impression: This story is hilarious! It epitomizes the everything happens for a reason philosophy. Thanks for allowing me to read your work. It has been my pleasure! What does the fox say???
