Hey that's great that you took a chance and had a nice time. That's how new connections and frienships get started. She sounds interested, and I'd just leave it at that. Although you have the personality and career that'll make it harder to shake off a pursuing woman who you have no remaining interest in, I'd leave the exit strategies to the fairer sex and just be direct. Kind, but direct. And timely, as in as soon as you know that its not going anywhere, you let her know.
But you're nowhere near there. Those DBing skills are also mainstream R skills: Breathe, relax your posture, and just take her presence in, stay non-defensive, listen reflectively, eye contact, all those good things... Enjoy it, Buddy.
Any snow yet up there? Over here, its a chilly 34 degrees. I wore my gloves to drive in to protect my baby soft hands. Can't hamper the typing skills, you know.
