he called! he called!
can i just say something? just real quick? can i just be excited for just one second here?
cuz um.
HE CALLED! HE CALLED! HE CALLED!
i almost don't know how to write about a date gone right. its so completely outta my realm
... but....
my first date with The Pilot (note capitalization)... was??
fantastic.
not overwhelmingly, out of control, omg where has this guy been all my life, fantastic. just.. you know.
the right amount of fantastic.
there were nerves, and giggles. momentary pauses in conversation that resulted in "sooo.." and "... yeahhhh".
stupid moments where i blurted out "you have really long legs!!"
and even more amazing moments of brilliance as i compared his profession to that of Top Gun...
(note::: i ooze intelligence in social surroundings)
but in the end...it was good.
it was a good-totally random-full of ackward moments-i am a huge nerd-why did i tell him i went to band camp-wow i need to keep that kind of information to myself from now on-first date.
and now?
well, now... i get to look forward to another one.
cuz The Pilot, Hottie McHotterson himself...
he called.
and if everything goes right...
i get to see him again this weekend!

Goose: The bet is $20.
Maverick: $20.
Goose: You have to have carnal knowledge -- of a lady this time -- on the premises.
Maverick: On the premises. [sees Charlie}
Goose: Come on, Mav, a bet's a bet.
Maverick: It just doesn't seem fair...to you I mean. But, uh, she's lost that loving feeling. [starts walking toward Charlie]
Goose: She's lo... [catches up] No she hasn't.
Maverick: Yes she has.
Goose: [objecting] She's not lost that lo...
Maverick: Goose, she's lost it man.
[walks off]
Goose: Come on! Aw sh... I hate it when she does that.

Suweeeet! You go girl! A pilot and a tri make for a very exciting date. I'm sure all the stimulating conversation will just get better and better.

nice work, girl.

i would think the important part of a second date with a pilot, is to keep his hands away from the ejection handle at all times...
as per iron pol, look to kelly mcgillis for the ultimate how-to guide on handling pilots...

Oh come on! He's a pilot, he must have gone to science camp at some point in your life. Every kid knows band campers are way, way cooler than science campers!
And either way, he's totally sitting at home in total awe of your wowness!

Best part about your description: it sounds like you and The Pilot were real--authentic. THAT is to be cherished.
Now remember, I want you home by 11:00, young lady. (Just kidding. Hope this is the beginning of much joy).

Hottie McHotterson? Ha! I've been out of the dating pool way too long.

IronPol stole my comment. Now all I'm left with is:
YOU! (points a finger at Maverick).
good luck with hotty mcfliesaplane. ah... twitterpated... i remember that feeling.
pretty soon, twitterpated turns into constipated and gas-all-the-time-pated.
good luck with that.

Now are we talking the beach volleyball scene Hottie McHotterson?? If so, you need to quote the "take me to bed or lose me forever line." Okay, maybe not just yet, but enjoy this, I'm so glad he called.

How exciting! I can't wait to hear about your next date! Wahoo!
Posted by: Teacherwoman | October 20, 2006 8:19 AM
Work it girl, work it. hehe
Glad to hear things went so well.

I don't think band camp is all that bad! Being yourself is a goood thing. And dorks/nerds rule.
Posted by: janet | October 21, 2006 5:26 PM
niiiiiice. keep the faith girlfriend!
Posted by: Tammy | October 22, 2006 10:12 PM
Here is hoping the 2nd date goes just as well and that he is a UNC b ball fan!
Posted by: Kurt | October 23, 2006 9:23 AM
how did the second date go? I recently had a second date - day after the first, and he asked me if he could play as he tried to open my jeans - is this bad form? I left soon after..and he has not called.
