1. Not me.
2. And neither did I say or imply that. Don't get carried away with literary license. The young woman in question responded to the OP that she was very busy at work.

Since you raised the subject of "bad grammar" ...

The OP's date was over a week ago and he's not returned to the thread to give any update so one can only speculate on the outcome. Maybe it all worked out wonderfully and the two lovebirds are blissfully frolicking through flower-laden meadows to the background of Whitney Houston's, "I'll Always Love you".

Sometimes I hate texting. How is my Tuesday? It's the same as Monday. If it was different, do I really want to type it out for you? No.

I find it quite fascinating that those who complain about the sorts of texting questions they find so irritating are often the worst offenders. They post in detail exactly what they wrote/said/texted to a prospective online date using exactly the same phrases they profess to abhor so much. Those blinders obviously come in XXL sizes.

She's "super busy at work". Take it at face value. Wait a couple of days, call her during lunch or when she's not at work.
