Is light-hearted joking okay when you are waiting to hear from a guy?

A guy I went on a date with said that he had fun and that he would get back to me that was on Saturday. Today, I heard some random shortline jokes, and too test things I sent him a couple, and he responded to me. Of course I stopped, and I am leaving it there?

This was my way of just seeing if he would respond.
