No. Starting a new pilot study, so I have to write a grant proposal. And we just got a new student (unfortunately speaks almost no English) and will be getting 3 more within a few months, as well as 2 interns. Gotta write up mini projects and protocols for them. X-ray beamline coming up in a month, so I have hundreds of new crystals. Lots of other stuff. It adds up.
Indeed. As is the period dress.
These days you could call it cosplay, but I'd love to be able to dress like a 50's greaser and take a girl wearing a poodle skirt to a juke joint on a date.
As a teenage girl i can say that if a guy asked me to go out on a date as simple as this i would love to... I felt really sad the other day when a boy asked me out and started listing theme parks and plays in the local theatre to go to and looking at me worriedly to see if I approved... Not all girls need to go to the most expensive shit in town, a $2 ice cream at the local cafe would be fine as long as you're there- that's what dating is about, getting to know the other person, not impressing them with your money
Think about it this way, what are his thought process in choosing these dates?
Is he so scrambled thinking about you that his thought process is so discombobulated that his thought are nigh incomprehensible? If that's the case, just roll with it.
He (for now) really, REALLY likes you.
Now, if he is able to maintain his bearing... give carefull consiteration to:
1) What this date choice means to him.
2) What he wants this date choice to mean to you and to the both of you.
Is he sort of a hipstery traditionalist that want to do things the "old fashioned" way?
Is there something he gleaned from you or your freinds that might imply you might like these things?
He mustered the courage to take a shot, give him a chance as long as it's not too "over the top."
We should start a movement and go out dressed like the 50s and have sock hops and milkshakes but do our own thing too like interracial or multisexual or whatever you happen to be into.
Girls: You get what you tolerate. If you all insist on real dates and turn down invitations to "hang out" or for "Netflix and chill," guys will step up. They're not going to give up on socializing with females...you have it in your power to cause a step up in guys' game.
And all of this during a time where domestic violence and rape where considered to be normal, child abuse and teen pregnancies where just daily shit and women needed their husbands allowance for a bank account. So sweet.
Go out for milkshake and dancing and fair
Gosh I love fair and everything about it
You cheesy thing
Don't crash them burn
If I do, something 'bout to go down
Also I could have made a sexual joke with that go down but I missed it
What a shame
You gotta look for them if you want to take a girl on an oldy time date...
Which is precisely the sort of thing I'd like to do... should that opportunity present itself.

Whether we admit it or not, aren't we all?
