I was at ComiCon this weekend and managed to grab a drink with an engineer from work, the same one I thought I chased away in May, yes, the very same one that won’t talk with me at work, but WILL send text messages.

You’d think I’d have gotten use to the engineer mentality, growing up amongst them, watching their behaviors…yes, I am the Jane Goodall for Engineers.   But alas, in this one-on-one situation, along with the lack of sleep and my propensity for being easily distracted, I was unprepared.  Also, when I asked for a club soda as opposed to an alcoholic beverage, Mr. Engineer was taken aback – but I had an hour long drive ahead of me.

Let’s sum up by saying, while I had a good time, once again, the environment was too noisy and I felt rushed because of the travel time that awaited me – I didn’t get home until after 1:00AM.
