Afterwards, we dropped our games back at my apartment and then walked over to the most fabulous little pizza place (it's truly tiny—four tables and four seats at the bar) and shared delicious pizza and a slice of goat cheese kumquat tart. If that sounds odd, trust me when I say it was amazingly good (and I even passed up on the flour-less chocolate cake for it). We stuck around and talked for a while—amazingly no one needed our table—before going back to my apartment.
We watched "Once," which is a truly great movie with a spectacular soundtrack (if you haven't seen it, get it now) and lots of unresolved sexual tension. Let's just say that he stayed for another three hours after the movie ended and I finally had to send him home so we could both get a little sleep before work today.
I caused a bit of trouble this morning however, when I sent him an e-mail that was supposed to be flirty and facetious but was taken seriously by Henry. I quickly responded with a clarifying e-mail, so hopefully all is well there. Regardless, we've already decided to go out again Friday. We don't have any plans for the date yet, but I'm happy just to spend some more time with him whatever we end up doing.
So far, so good. I'm happy and hopeful and I can't wait for Friday.

What board games did you play? Were there any super-good ones that you would recommend?
The only game that was totally new to me was Fluxx, which you'd like a lot (potential birthday present, I think). The other games, however, all involved a lot more people than I've ever played with, so even familiar games (like Carcassone) became new again.
I've gotten my Chinese tutor hooked on Carcassonne!
*squee*
That's so exciting!
(By the way, I've never seen Once, but I know a little of the music, and it's incredible--I should bump it up on my netflix queue.)
