Playing along at home - dating complexities
Quick recap:
- trouble getting photographs through internet dating service censors.
- inbox explosion from unfiltered potential dates.
- post-hoc rationale for writing to potential hotties serially rather than consecutively.
- first phonecall from current hottie.
- Splushy e-mails.
MSN Spaces categories could have helped me here, but they didn’t.
Was the first date a success?
- I wasn’t inolved in a major pile-up. I took the bus to by-pass the challenge of driving Loo Sea (1995 Honda Civic).
- I got off at the wrong bus-stop. Luckily, hotty has a mobile phone and knows how to use it.
- Half way through the evening I felt deep empathy with Jackson Pollock canvases.
- hottie is confirmed as party animal. I didn’t get home until 3am. Though it’s difficult to tell the exact time because all the clocks in my home are being creative about what they publish and I was nearly asleep.
- I slipped on the side-walk. Completion of this accidental fall-over maneuver avoided by hottie’s quick reactions.
- second date arranged for after I’ve cleaned my canvas.
