Guys, it was amazing.  Like, seriously amazing.

The restaurant he picked was perfect, although I felt a little out of my element at first because it was incredibly classy.  But, we had some wine, and the food was amazing.  I had sauteed sea scallops over roasted autumn veggies (turnip, carrot, celery, olives and some kind of crazy veg that looks like white asparagus but isn't).  YUM.  Completely gluten free.  He called before hand to make sure.  And his table manners?  They were perfect.  I was impressed.

It was a beautiful night out, so we wandered around DC, and into Union Station for a bit, and then decided to head home, where we basically just hung out and watched Ocean's Eleven, and snuggled on the couch for a bit.  And talked.  Until like 2AM.  He brought me home, and everything was just absolutely perfect.

And the best part?  He left work early to pick up cupcakes for me.  Gluten free chocolate lava fudge cupcakes from Georgetown Cupcake.  A whole dozen.  Just for me.  Om nom nom.  Best cupcake I've had in 4 years.

I'm holding on to this one ladies, I am.

    Okay, but does he READ??? ;)

    Can I ask prying questions? Did you wear the dress or something else? Did you meet him online or otherwise? Does he make you giggle?

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Date Update!!! : 1. He DOES read.  We had been talking and I told him I wanted to work through the list of 1001 books to read before you die.  He bet me he'd make it to 50 before I did. 2. You can always ask prying questions. :) 3. I did end up wearing the dress.  I actually put both outfit options on and walked downstairs for my mom to vote.  She picked the dress, said it was fine with the cardigan and tights.  It calmed the sex factor down a LOT. 4. I met him in HS.  I actually was kind-of friends with his last serious girlfriend.  It's a long story, but she and I haven't talked in like 7 years.  And, he's part of the group that I hang out with all the time at home. 5. He makes me laugh constantly.  And he challenges me to think.  And he makes me giggle like a 12 year old girl. 6.  I really hope that isn't an issue, but I'm planning on waiting to sleep with him for a while.  And something tells me that if we do get to that point before both of us are ready, he's going to be honorable.  :D
