It is with a friend of a friend. All I know about him is he just graduated with a political science degree so we should have lots to talk about.
Wish me luck! |

Wish me luck! | Come back and tell us about it. I hope it went well. I met my husband on a blind date. I didn't think he was my type when I first met him, but was all googley-eyed by the end of the date.  (My parents met on a blind date and have been married for 47 years.) |

Poli sci people have all the employability and usefulness of an art major, but with more argument and general pissiness.

It's as if they took the crusade for gay civil rights to a level where they teach political science to the next generation - an interesting strategy. The class was all about civil rights, political activism and how to get new legislation passed. Actually I enjoyed it and was impressed with his knowledge of history and court cases. I gave him the DVD series of The West Wing so his future classes wouldn't have to watch it on the sh itty VCR tapes he had that had been played way too many times.

The guy I met while I was waiting for the blind date is cool though. |

So was there any exchange of info with the cool guy?  |
