Prairie Dog First Date Ends in Embarrassment

Prairie Dog First Date Ends in Embarrassment

by Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent

Frank was never one for romance – that is, until he met Leila.

“He’s a bit of a workaholic, and it’s just him in his burrow right now,” says Ryan Bing, a friend. “It took some prodding, but he finally fired up his old OkCupid account a few weeks ago. They randomly just started chatting.”

The two hit it off so well that they decided to meet last Friday.

“Frank was a bit apprehensive, but they ended up having a really nice time,” says Bing. “He took her to dinner at this new Thai fusion place, and then they went up to the lookout point to check out the stars.”

The evening had gone off without a hitch – until the time came for the pair to say goodnight.

“He went in for the kiss, and apparently she was just going for a hug,” says Bing. “They bonked heads, and is was really embarrassing – he could barely muster a ‘bye.’ He’s a bit down right now, but he’ll get back on the horse – or whatever the appropriate prairie dog saying is.”
