Here we go again

 So I'm sitting in the coffee shop at 302pm, stressing out because I was late (we were supposed to meet at 3pm), and I'm trying to surreptitiously check out all the guys in the place while hoping like hell that none of them were actually my date because I didn't particularly want to talk to any of them.... then all of a sudden I look up and there's this vision with big brown eyes, curly brown hair peaking out from a super cute hat, a really sexy piercing and a funky hoodie smiling at me and saying my name.

I might, just might, be in love.  I know I know I know, GET A GRIP MCKINNLEY!!!

I don't usually fall hard and fast (I'm WAY too logical for that), but this guy actually has a nice neat checkmark in all the little boxes on my "list."   So far anyway. There's got to be something wrong with him because I'm pretty certain he's not perfect. Like for starters he could have acted a little more interested in me. He's not rich and doesn't have a "real" career or any formal schooling and will probably never be financially stable. He's kind of radical (although he used the word "rad" in a sentence and I had to refrain from clapping my hands in delight!) He's intense and passionate in ways that could be entirely overwhelming and possibly frustrating... but that intensity and passion could translate rather nicely into other areas. *wink*        But...... he's interested in nutrition, traveling, personal development, and the arts. He's intelligent and funny. He's social and laid back. He's.... intriguing and refreshing.....

And it's incredibly, ridiculously, stupidly too soon to even be contemplating anything.

We had a nice afternoon. And I'm glad it wasn't a raging disaster.

And just to keep myself on an even keel, I got a phone number from this very attractive guy sitting at the table next to me while I was watching the UFC fights tonight.
