UpDATE #501,210
I had no idea that it's been so long since my last post. Time has been flying by. In large part because I'm finally owning that I'm really into Banter Boy. After a meh second date with Mr. Psych (who asked me virtually no questions this time), I gave into my desire to do what I've wanted to do all along, which is date BB exclusively.Basically, we met through a beloved mutual friend, and we engaged in several weeks of astonishingly clever e-banter before meeting in person.
It's very, very early, but I already have a pet name. When we first met, we discussed an episode in my life using a lion-gazelle metaphor. Soon after, BB introduced me to the springbok. This is a super cute African gazelle that I apparently resemble. Because: "springboks often go into bouts of repeated high leaps into the air in a practice known as 'pronking' ... While pronking, the springbok leaps back into the air as soon as it comes down, with its back bowed and the white fan lifted. While the exact cause of this behaviour is unknown, springboks exhibit this activity when they are nervous or otherwise excited."

That's pretty cute.
Look forward to hearing more.
What about poor Mr. Biotech? Did he come and go without notice?
Nice pet name. I don't even have a pet name and it's been two years. You're doing good.
Mr. Biotech went away on vacation soon after contacting me. I think he got back over the weekend, but has not checked in. I say: you snooze, you lose, baby. Edgy glasses or no.
As long as he's not calling you, "Pronk," which is the nickname of Travis Hafner, the Cleveland Indians' rather solidly built designated hitter!
Aw man. Now I feel gross about having eaten springbok when I was in S. Africa...
That's a very sleek, adorable looking little animal...
Waiting eagerly to hear more about BB!
