The Date p.1

Trying to get caught up on my goal to finish a comic page each week. This is part one of a short (4-6 page) portfolio piece called "The Date". I'm not terribly happy with this one, I've redrawn this page many times, playing with different layouts and drawing techniques. I've been sitting on this for a while and I just need to move on to page two at this point.
