Okay, so I've had a *crush* on my biology prof all semester. At times it seemed reciprocal, but he's a genuinely sweet, charming and incredibly funny man so it was impossible to really tell if the vibe I was receiving was the same vibe he was sending.

Anyway, I waited out the 16 weeks til the semester was over and went ahead and emailed him asking if we could meet sometime for coffee/tea/lunch/cocktails, now that I'm no longer his student and he's no longer my prof. I hit the send button and of course immediately regretted it.

But lo and behold, 2 days later, he replied with a YES.

He wrote:
"I dig the interest. Very brave and open of you. I like that.
I'm off to california to visit family and warm up a bit.
I'll call you when I get back (around the new year) so we can arrange a date.
Maybe some pizza and chatting to break the ice?"

I am currently on cloud 5 1/2. Will know more once we meet in person.

Woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
