Yes, we do, Henry...


Of course, we like our heads attached to our bodies, as well. Ha, ha.

Interesting things today. So, I had innocently forgotten, as the BF has been nice enough to e-mail me at my regular e-mail, that my dating profile was still active on that site. Then I got an e-mail today from a rather nice gentleman. I slapped my forehead, I had totally forgotten. So, I got back on and e-mailed back saying I had a rather nice BF from the site, I was very sorry, and best of luck, etc (because really, the only thing more humiliating then being on a dating website is sending out the six million unanswered thoughtful e-mails to people who think they are too good for you based on your picture.) Then I thought about it for a total of ten seconds and deleted my dating profile. Yep, the decision is that we are in it to win it, People. Gonna have fun and make it work. Stopped looking entirely. Got my sights set on him now for the takedown. Don't need to be hunting for other ones, want this one.

This also made me think for a second that, perhaps, just perhaps, I may be one of those corny 'yeah, I have this friend and they found their -insert dating status title here- on website such-n-such...' sort of success story. Which is kind of cool. I know when I started doing it I felt just a little inadequate doing it. As though perhaps I could not find a regular person out in the world so perhaps there was something wrong with me. But, you know what? There is nothing wrong with me other than the fact that I don't get out of the house as much as I should or have a compelling desire to troll around some dimly lit bar full of sickos to find an appropriate guy hidden in among the trash. Not one thing.

Now I'm sure my close friends might disagree slightly, to the effect that yes, like everyone else, I do have flaws. Some of them odd or quirky, some of them more glaring and ugly, but on the whole not as many as you would ever think. In fact, I have things about me that make me an outstanding general girlfriend candidate (who knows if the BF would agree or not) --like...I like football, watch SportsCenter regularly and can talk sports intelligently. I have a very sexual nature and enjoy most pornography, considering this to be a normal part of human behaviour. When I tell you 'I work out' --I really mean it, I exercise pretty darn regularly now. I am a giver, I love to give gifts, and a pleaser, if you're happy then, most of the time, that makes me happy. I prefer action/adventure and sci-fi movies over romantic comedies. I like watching people play video games and if it's a first person shooter, which makes me dizzy and alittle ill, I go into the other room and do my own thing rather than telling you to stop. And whether most people like it or not, I'm honest about almost everything. I don't mind cooking and cleaning, as long as you don't mind doing the dishes (I really hate the dishes). Huh, as compared to the national average --not bad at all really. Ha, ha.

Oh, and I have started clipping coupons. I even got a nifty little accordion style coupon holder for the purse because I had so many. And as I was doing a bunch of clipping last night, I even clipped some for the BF to restaurants he normally goes to. I have no idea if he will want or use them, but I thought it was a nice gesture --you know, kind of an 'I was thinking about you randomly, not while touching myself' sort of thing. I think he'd appreciate that.
