Take care of yourself. I played hookey from work and research (which is also work as I get paid) last Friday with my supervisor's permission. I'm excited to hear about your potential date; age doesn't really matter as long as you have the chemistry :) There was almost a double digit age gap between me and my ex when I was a freshman. Is there a good time for me to call you in the next few days to talk and see how you're doing?

Unfortunately the only holidays I have this semester are Thanksgiving and the day after. I might be able to visit you sometime during winter break, depending on how my dad's doing.
