I, um…
*looks around warily*
…went on a date.
Now, yes, depending on your definition of “date”, I’ve been on a few of these over the last couple months. It’s a loaded word, so I hesitate to use it. I also regularly just hang out with people of the opposite gender, so I really don’t know what really defines a “date” anymore. This got called a “date”, though, so I suppose I could officially call it a “date”.
The date consisted entirely of hanging out and chatting at Caribou Coffee and Perkins… for NINE HOURS. I believe it’s safe to say that we get along rather well. Whether or not anything comes of it, I think he’ll be a fine addition to the local geek hivemind. Currently engineering integration opportunities.
Also, had cherry pie and ice cream at the end of the night. Yum!

9 hours of conversation later with a cute, smart, interesting girl… Plus coffee, supper, and pie… I’d say things went well. 🙂
