Oh — and if you’re curious, this went well. It’s true that I was a bundle of nerves beforehand, especially because Matt and I were late due to having to wait 15 minutes for a stupid A train. But it turned out that my parents were late, too, so it was fine. Matt and my parents got along well enough, and there were no fiascos. Matt talked about musical theater (which interested my mom) and pulled out his new Sony Clié (which interested my dad). And my dad e-mailed me this morning to tell me that it was good to meet Matt and that he was very nice.

I have introduced my parents to my boyfriend and the world did not explode.

Yay!
