Is It Friday Night Yet?

After another hour-long conversation last night with "FSN guy", a conversation that seemed to just fly by with tons of great conversation, we have plans to meet after 5 days of talking. He has Friday and Saturday off and we both have plans for Saturday night, so Friday was the best bet. I asked him what he wanted to do and his suggestion was dinner and drinks. I said that I was up for that, even though I think dinner can be a big commitment for meeting someone for the first time. However, it worked well with "CMU guy" back in August and we didn't have nearly as much to talk about at first. "FSN guy" and I, on the other hand, already have a couple of stories that were too long for phone conversation and, as he put it, required drinks.

It was also fun, too, before we talked on the phone last night that we were texting while watching our basketball games. Pitt was playing Marquette at home and WVU (his team) played DePaul. Both of us won, so we were in a good mood. "FSN guy" and I talked about the possibility of a Pitt/WVU game in either the Big East or the NCAA tournament. "FSN guy" suggested a wager on the game. Initially if WVU won, he was going to have me wear a bunch of WVU gear and take a picture. That would be awful even though I think Pitt will win and I won't have to worry about it. So I said that he would have to wear my Pitt basketball jersey while I video taped him singing Pitt's Alma Mater. Then I would upload it to YouTube and optimize it with some great search phrases. There would also be a link on Facebook and MySpace for all of my friends to enjoy. "FSN guy" said he now has to consult his WVU friends for something a little bit better to match mine. I'm good! My only request was that it didn't involve any couch fires.

Tomorrow should be interesting and I'm actually not too nervous. We already have too much to talk about. And we figured out where we are going for dinner and what time. We both had a list of 3 and had the same restaurant on our respective lists, so that's the one we're going to. I guess we'll have to see what happens tomorrow night! I just want to fast forward to that point so I can know if it was a good idea to fall off the wagon last Sunday.
