Speaker 1 (00:02):
It's Cobby and Gusine's crazy first date.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Hi, Serena, So when did your crazy first date happen?

Speaker 1 (00:09):
It happened nine years ago, actually, all right?

Speaker 3 (00:11):
And where'd you meet this person?

Speaker 1 (00:13):
So we'd gone to college together and then we reconnected
over Instagram and decided we were going to go on
a date and see what happened?

Speaker 3 (00:22):
All right, and how crazy did it get?

Speaker 1 (00:24):
So he pulled up and he texted me and said,
I'm outside. So I went outside because our street had
some funky parking rules, and my dog, who was only
like six months at the time, very much a puppy,
darted out underneath my feet behind his car. So I
ran out in my heels, my whole outfit, looking super cute,

(00:47):
thinking who I was? I run out. I'm slamming on
his hood of his car, saying, don't kill my dog.
Don't kill my dog.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
Oh gosh. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
He runs up the rest of the street and I
go after her, saying, so my name is Serena. The
dog's name is also Serena. The gate knew none of that.
Knew that my name was Serena, but not that her
name was Serena. Right, And I'm screaming up my street, Terena,
come back here, come back, realizing that that's only making

(01:18):
her run further. So now I changed my voice and
I'm like, come on, Serena, come on, baby, come on
for me to come here. And I turn around and
I catch his face and he looks like he just
walked into the twilight zone. Oh no, and I'm like,
oh no, this is this is the end. This is
the first and last date. Turns out nine years later,

(01:40):
I married him and we have a toddler, a baby
on the way, and three dogsa. This one's name is Serena,
so sweet.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Congratulations. Did he help you in corral Serena, because you
know we all worry about obviously she's okay now, but
how did.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
You get here? Yes, no, he did help me. He
kind of was stunned for a second. Yeah, and then
when she started coming back, he caught her and helped
me bring her back into the house.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
That's a good guy right there.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
And we did indeed hook up Serena with a great prize,
and we'll do the same for you if you're caller
number ten.
