Got a text from W last night at midnight "You busy?"

I was having a great time with old college friends and had let my phone die. I'll try her back a little later tonight. Encouraged by the contact, but don't want to read too much into it.

My friends and I reminisced about a party we threw our senior year. We had a popular local band come play an acoustic set in our apartment and had a full espresso bar set up. It was, as we would say back then, "pimp". Had 40-50 people in there and listening outside. Afterwards, we were discussing the ladies who had made an appearance that night, including one named Lauren. One of the guys didn't know who she was, so I described the shirt she was wearing, etc. He said "oh, you mean the most beautiful woman in the room?" "Yes," I said "that's her." And right there I decided to ask her out. Didn't think she'd say yes, but she did, and the rest is history, although somewhat painful now.

I thought about mentioning that story if we talk tonight. Good idea? Bad?
