The Writer asked me to a poetry reading on Saturday. He emailed saying “it’s cool if you already have plans, but it’d be cool if you want to come along.”

I waited 12+ hours before writing back, saying I’d go, and included a little story about what happened at work the day before regarding an IT thing, since it related to what we had been talking about last time we got together.

He replied “Great! See you Saturday then. P.S. – Your IT guy probably thanks you for being so nice”

No, I don’t think it’s a date, by any means. But definitely not “professional” correct?
