The whole online dating thing is starting to pick up again. Well, one guy so far. And my subscription ends in February, but hey, who am I to complain? 

I actually heard from Prince Albert last week, wanting to grab a drink Friday night. I had said yes at first, but then I rethought. I hadn’t really “gone out” with him in about a year. Why should I run and go out with him at his beck and call just because he felt like it. We had been in contact, but nothing insinuated that he wanted to go out with me again. So in the end, I bailed. It was the right thing to do. 

So on Saturday, I got *winked* at from a new guy on match. He looked reasonably attractive, even though is picture was kind of far way and he had sunglasses on. But that was alright. We exchanged a few quick emails and he gave me his number. We were texting back and forth last night. And he sent me a better picture. Definitely cute! 

I don’t want to jinx myself. We are only chatting at this point, but he did get bonus points for texting me this morning to say have a great day. That kept me from wondering if I would hear from him again!  We’ll see where it goes. 

I had a weird experience over the weekend. One that left me feeling kind of invaded and like I was being watched. I had to go to a colleagues baby shower on Saturday. The gal that was hosting it, I’ve met a few times before and she actually lives pretty close to me. We were standing in the front of the room chatting when I got there and she proceeds to tell me how she and her hubby were bike riding and they passed my house and saw me outside (mind you, she didn’t stop to say hello or anything!) She said that she texted my work colleague that I had some boys outside my house (when she relayed the story to me, she made it sound all dirty and stuffs,) and what was going on. Work colleague told her that I sold my couches to someone I worked with and that’s who they were. 

For the love. Why the hell is she stalking me around my neighborhood then texting work colleague with all my bidness? I found that really strange, weird and icky. I would never in a million years text work colleague with the details of what her friend was doing on a Saturday afternoon if I happened to see her. Very bizarre.
