I’m dating again! Since I go to work in an office of all women, and go home to my dog after work, I decided to go online! I know, it’s big.
So Saturday night I sat with my dog in my living room, alone, thinking to myself, “I’m ready to meet somebody.” So I opened up my MacBook and googled “eharmony versus match”, after a little bit of research I chose match.com. Exciting right? Well of course it is. So I go to match.com and lo and behold… My email address was already saved in the email box. Then I remembered my disastrous attempt at online dating once before. Nix that, twice before. Forgetting momentarily that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results, I decided that I don’t personally know anyone that I want to date and I’m not about to go trolling bars, so this was my only option. So I did it. I was kind of lame with it though. I kept my profile from two years ago. Just changed the picture, which I am already fretting about.
So I signed up on Saturday and today is Monday and I have had 179 profile views, 3 emails, 3 favorites and 10 winks… I’m getting a complex. That means that over 150 people viewed my profile and didn’t think I was charming or attractive enough to move their mouse over and inch and click “WINK”.
The best part of this is the emails. Two were basic but there is one that made it worth me spending my money on this website to receive this. Below is the page capture… All names have been changed to protect the weirdo.
“OK. I can picture you all dolled up and painted on the side of a WWII B-52 bomber AND you have those great pictures of you in (is it?)Africa.
My brain’s kinda spinning **DOES NOT COMPUTE?!?** I don’t know if I think you’d look better in a evening gown stepping out of a limo, or in khakis jumping into a Land Rover.
I like that.
Anyway, my profile’s out of date. I work in Tulsa again.
So.. which do you prefer?? Me in a tux, or in your… I Mean… my khakis.”
“DOES NOT COMPUTE!!??!” (You have to read it with a robot voice). That might be my favorite, right after the “get in my pants” remark. (Good think I didn’t put up my pin up girl Betty Page pictures!)
Really, do you think this has worked for him before?
I do believe this will be an interesting adventure. I look forward to blogs to come from this. 
Good night and God Bless.
Ooh, I just noticed that my search box still has the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival in it… Anyone who wants to go on Friday night let me know. My all time favorite singer/songwriter will be there, Ellis Paul. I love him. And you will too.
