The week started off not so great and ended with a sob. Instead of just sitting here in my house alone I decided to get serious about my stupid match.com membership.
I emailed a couple "matches" and well, at about 7:30 got a reply (from the cute one.) It's the new me, so I suggested we go someplace and get some wine and talk about our week.
We agreed to meet at a wine bar in Issaquah (yes, I live in Renton, but the cool places are in the real suburbs.) I made the safety call to Becky to tell her where I was going, the phone number of this guy and what time to check in. I of course read his profile to her, hello... still a girl.
When I read the part about his work - vague, but descriptive enough for me to put some thoughts together. "I wonder if he works at the same place my college roommate Andy worked at?" I quickly hang up and call. Sure enough - yes. I am quickly assured that MS is a "nice guy". It is suggested that we skip the wine bar and go to Andy's. I LOVE IT - safe and FUN.
I call MS back and he's a little wigged that I've put all this together in 15 minutes. I put him at ease by teasing him about whether or not his shirt is ironed yet. (men are so predictable) It's almost perfectly flat and he agrees to go to Andy's.
Where is all this going, you ask with excitement? You guessed it, making out on my couch! Not that I kiss total strangers and tell. *snort* I totally do too.
So, it is true that he is in fact nice. My spidey senses say that he'll call, but based on my lack of experience in this area I could be totally wrong. Of course, as the girl I hope he does call, but if not it was fun to go a couple rounds of tonsil hockey.
But, now here it is 1am, and I have to get up tomorrow to get Becky's dinosaur birthday cake to the cabin and I'm wired. My story has ended so I'm going to go to bed anyway (you're not getting details - I'm not a porno blog.)
The moral of the week... no matter how many dudes who you mistake for being remotely interested in you that break you down, or how many favorite co-workers who cruelly abandon you in total hell "save yourself tpgal" there's always some guy that will come over and try to feel you up! Go Match.com
Go TPgal!
