I had a great date with "The Radiologist" Saturday night. He wanted to go to a very upscale restaurant. First time in ages I've been on a date where the guy was in a jacket (that wasn't leather). Conversation was really good. We were at the restaurant for 4 hours. He asked me during the date when he could see me again.

That was a first.

The conversation was flowing. We went to a coffee place nearby and talked for another 4 hours.

Seriously!

Then we smooched in the car for a while. Curled my toes.

He's a specialized radiologist that is new in town because the staff doc is having a baby. So he's filling in while she's on maternity leave for the next 3 months. He alluded to the fact she said she might not come back after the leave is over. He said the deal is sweet - gets paid more than double what he'd get on staff, plus living expenses.

We had dinner last night. Much more low-key place.  Very comfortable with him. He wanted to know when he could see me again - I have friends coming into town next weekend, so I'm not sure what my schedule will be like.

We definitely clicked but, I don't see myself spending time with him longterm.  And since he's (in theory) going to be going to another assignment in 3 months...
