    @bolderbekah That&amp;#39;s a fair point. This was a delete-after-a-day sort of post and on reflection I think I&amp;#39;m deleting faster than that.

No, I&amp;#39;m from Michigan though. Ann Arbor.&amp;quot; Me: &amp;quot;I grew up in the UP.&amp;quot; Him: &amp;quot;It&amp;#39;s beautiful up there, but so cold.&amp;quot; As we&amp;#39;re talking, it&amp;#39;s 45 F, he&amp;#39;s dressed in jeans and a jacket...
