Talking on the phone first is a must, then I think going to a casual coffee place is great for a nice meeting. It is easy for both people and also easy to escape :)
but but... I do have a really big California King and a 50 incher (thats a 50 incher TV btw) and down pillows so in taking all the content in from this thread, we could hit coffee, head to mums house, travel to PA, do the bump and grind in the cemetery for a few minutes, then take a charter jet back to my house and go to bed!
now thats a cheap date.
