First match

Got an email today from my hardworking shadchan re: a match. He is, of course, from NYC, but based on his info, he doesn't seem married to Brooklyn. Brooklyn, by the way, is mydefintion of hell on earth. I'd stay single for the rest of my life if the only other option was getting married and living in Brooklyn. There's always artificial insemination and adoption, after all.

So, now I wait for the awkward phone call. I'm horrible at these - I either come off as too aloof or we end up talking about something way beyond a first-date-acceptable topic. Ideas anyone?

Will keep you posted.
