I read it when the count went up. I never said I always respond right
away when it goes up. :-)
I was getting to know my Russian MD woman online and then having a first
date and a tour of the Stanford Med School area. I delayed responding
until I knew what I wanted to say. Now I'll ask her about May 2 and 7.
She had a verbal job offer on Tuesday for a Berkeley job as a
physician's assistant, and might be keeping the decks clear in case she
has to learn a lot of new procedures or language. I hope to know by
this coming Monday what she says. Maybe we could use my car to go to SF
and pick her up to go as a trio.
