Interesting Development

So, this morning I am a wee bit giddy. Last night, I was mucking about on Instant Messenger, chit chatting to a couple of my chicky friends.

A Happy Valentine's Day message pops up on my screen from an guy I kinda know that ex and I had hung out with a few times, not one on one but in a group setting. I kinda thought he was cute, and interesting to talk to, but being attached at the time didn't really think much more about him than that. I've actually known him since high school, but you know how you know some people for what seems like forever but yet you've never really had a whole conversation with them? That's this guy.

Well, we starting talking.

And talking.

And talking.

Finally we got tired of typing and he called me. And we talked. And talked. And talked. About everything. Music, movies, the state of the world in general, politics, silly random shit.

We clicked. You know how sometimes you meet someone and you start talking and you just freaking click? You find yourself thinking, "Geez, finally someone I can talk to that can actually keep up with me! And doesn't find all this shit boring! And can actually debate about it in an intelligent fashion!"

Guys, he's so smart. Not in a geeky computer nerd way, not in an egotistical my-vocabulary-is-bigger-than-yours way. Just smart.

And? I have been asked on a date.

Squee!

I suppose I should apologize to The Powers That Be for bitching about Valentine's Day. Or maybe this is their idea of irony.

But, anyway, I am off to dance around my apartment, because I've got the butterflies again, and, you guys, I haven't had the butterflies in freaking FOREVER.



Side Note: Is anyone else's Blogger spellcheck not working? Mine has quit.

Hi, I found you from Boobs,Injuries,and Dr.Pepper and I wanted to tell you that I am really enjoying reading your blog. I started by reading the old blog and worked my way to the present and I wanted to tell you that I am so happy that you are over the ex. I also wanted to say that the puppy you posted pics of is incredibly adorable! I have 3 dogs and 1 cat, so I can sort of relate to your critter stories. Well, that is more than enough rambling for a comment section, just wanted to let you know I look forward to reading more of your posts!

PS, I do have a google account, but it has froze me out for over a month, so that is why I post as anonymous!

YEAH!!! I hope you have a blast!

And yes, my blogger spell check stopped working a while back... I don't know why and haven't had the time to look into it yet.

Yay for the date...but you know I married a computer geek rocket scientist, right? I won't hold that against you.

Apparently, the spell check thing is a known problem. One more reason to leave blogger, right?!

Oh how fun!!!!!! I'm so excited for you! You totally deserve a good one after the crap the other one put you through.

I can't wait to hear the dissection of the first date!
