Quintuple Booking

Double-booking is pretty difficult. You need to space out dates well and only allot those specific times to each person. Triple-booking would be next to impossible. But two nights ago I had the opportunity to quintuple book. Just for shits and giggles let's think about the logistics of that:

Say I got off work at 5:30 and started my first date at 7 PM.
End time is 1 AM. That's six hours.
I'd allot one hour per person but that might not leave me enough time for transportation.
So let's go with 5 dates from 7 PM to 1:30 AM.
I'd have to make sure all the dates were in the same 3 to 5 mile radius.

Luckily, reason took over and I decided to pick one. Morally, I should have just stuck with the first guy who asked me but that wasn't the case...

Guy 1, Bike Boy, asked me on the previous weekend to hang out this past Wednesday. We were going to go to Zilker for this cool event.
Guy 2, Army guy, asked me on Sunday or Monday if I could hang out this week, and for some reason I blurted out Wednesday. Oops. I really got myself in a pickle but why don't I just double-book and work some kind of schedule out.
Guy 3, Dentist guy, asked me on Tuesday night to hang out. I couldn't that night. But knowing that he's moving to Dallas really soon and knowing how crazy my schedule was going to be over the next week (more into that later), I decided to completely clear my plans for Wednesday and hang out with him instead.
Guy 4, Hipster dude, called me after work and wanted to hang out. I told him I had plans (too many of them!) and said I could hang out this weekend.
Guy 5, Peruvian guy, texted me at about 7 PM and asked if I wanted to have a drink. Whaaaa? Another 7 PM text? And he didn't ask me to go downtown?? Intriguing!

I tried to squeeze Dentist and Peruvian guy on Wednesday but my date with Dentist guy went too well ;) Not to despair though, I rendezvoused with Peruvian guy in on Thursday. That went well too and he asked me this morning if I got home ok. Aww.

Next up, Pickup Lines.
