Scientist/date results

The scientist was alright. I mean, he definitely lived up to the wittiness portrayed in his emails, and he even bought my drinks (which rarely seems to happen when i go out with dudes).

But. Okay. There are certain questions a lady needs to ask before going out i think.

1. do you live alone?
2. do you have friends?

He neglected to leave out the part where he's 31 and still lives in a house with his two sisters and his dad. He also doesnt, and has never owned a cell phone. He has a 718 number that he answered both times I called prior to our meeting up, but what's going to happen if I ever call again? I imagine it'll be like high school again when someone else in the house answers the phone, and then I hear "Hold on... SCIIIIIENTIST. some girl is on the phone for you! pick up the phone!!!!" and I will have to like, go through the weirdness of wondering who will answer the phone when i call his house. In other words, I guess i WON'T ever call his house, because I'm not trying to talk to his sister or his dad... not to mention, am i going to be allowed to call past 9pm?

I do plan on seeing him again, if he'd like to see me. Because he was super nice, and easy to talk to, and we had similar senses of humor and all that. He also walked me home, and wasn't the least bit skeezy, and he sent me a very nice email this morning letting me know that he had a good time and wants to see me again. I'm going out of town for a few days, but would like to see him when I get back. Also, as I predicted, he was way cuter than the picture that he sent me. And he was taller than me, which was nice. He has bad posture though...

In regards to the second question, he kind of touched upon how he doesn't have a ton of friends, and at work he doesn't think he's well liked by others, and apparently his boss has him working alone on a lot of projects, and other people have been asked to not have to work with him. But, he says that that's because everyone in his field are huge nerds, and he's not... I kind of understood that, because my very first boyfriend in college was a mechanical engineering major, and he absolutely HATED his classmates. He was really cool, but the people in his field were not, so it was more of a personality clashing thing, more so than him being someone that people ran far away from. So, I'm not completely holding this against him, but it's definitely going in to the "hmmmmmm" thought box.

Overall, not sure if there are sparks per se, and not completely sure if I can see myself touching the wang, but it's worth giving it a second date. Also, he has a labcoat that I'm dying to see, and he promised that he'd bring it with him on our second date....
