I Heart Online Dating

Par usual, the Thanksgiving season has me thinking about all the things I’m thankful for.

#1. Scarves- where would we be without them? And linen scarves make even warm weather scarfable.

#2. San Fran- Ah, the greatest city that I live in (and no, the two aren’t a coincidence).

Want to know #3? (more…)

Wow! Last time I wrote, I was busy talking about the “dog days” of summer. Now I’m in a season I’m a little more comfortable with- back to school!

I know that these are the dog days of summer, and I’m not saying that because of the weather. I’m saying it because I feel like a dog. (more…)

OK, so in San Fran summer is closer to an idea than an actual weather phenomenon. But I can’t help it- I think about getting out of school for a whole three months and it just makes me…giddy! But that’s also a problem…

Hello my friends! What’s happened since I last wrote? Let’s see- I think I grew a lot older, the Presidential campaign found a way to drag on until I die, and oh, I got another date. Which brings a particularly interesting conundrum to this post: How do you tell somebody they can’t cook?

It’s kind of old news for me (I have a very short newscycle, about as long as the life of a flea). But I feel like I have to tell you what happened. Long story short- I’m on to a new man. Despite the fact that I braved my ex to obtain a fake ID.

Once again, I managed to paint myself in a corner, except this time there wasn’t paint (yes, I have done that before in the literal sense. And yes, I know it’s stupid). I told my teenage crush that I’d get him an ID (paint-stroke number one of the screw-me-over brush), and then I told my ex to get the ID for me. I also told him the crush was my cousin, even though we happen to be different, uh…..races.

I hate paint…

Getting a fake ID? Not so easy, my teenage friend. I called up my ex and told him that I needed it. The hard part was telling him that I needed it for a guy I hadn’t even met yet.

I got in touch with my ex to try and get a fake ID for my new crush. Great idea, huh? He was at the racetracks, so I had to talk quick.

Fantastic. Or terrible. Because of my promise to get my teenage crush a fake ID, I found myself calling an ex yesterday. He’s a sketchy guy- that’s why we broke up. And now I need him to help me.

Great- I should have asked this question before I agreed to help my teenage crush get a fake ID. Where do I get one? I got mine from a friend (how long ago that was I’ll leave undisclosed). But now I told him I could help him. How??!

I told you about the first part of my IM convo with the teenager. But I did not tell you the important part- the part where we scheduled our first date. You won’t believe what that first date is…

I still had a few more questions to ask my crush about dormitory life. And I realized I hadn’t even asked the most important one during the course of my IM inquisition- did he have a roommate? I trembled as I typed….

Yesterday, I started asking my Singlesnet crush about his dorm. Well, I didn’t give up- even though he didn’t know what a hot plate was. I kept asking questions.

Once I found out my Singlesnet crush is not only a teenager but also lives in the dorms, I decided that I needed to do play the good cop and start interrogating him. I got his IM and started asking questions…
