You Winked at me? Seriously?

I'm on a dating website. Yep. Things are that tough. I NEVER EVER thought I would join an internet dating site. In fact, I used to make fun of people putting all their stuff out online. What kind of a way is that to meet people? Well, let me tell you, it seems like the ONLY way. I get up, go to work, and come home. All of my friends are married, I hate going to clubs, and I work with a bunch of women. Therefore, my options are limited. So instead of whining about being single, I'm giving the online thing a shot.

I've met 3 guys in person so far- none of which have made it further than a 2nd date. Of course I'm disappointed, but it's also a little unrealistic for me to think I would find "the one" right away.

What concerns me though is the unexpected, unsolicited attention that I am receiving from men 45 years and up. I mean, seriously? I had a 60 year old on my page the other day. What the what? I'm 32 years old and it clearly states that I am looking for someone within a range of 5 years. What are these guys thinking? (Like I dont know!) I guess I am a little more reserved when it comes to dating someone within your age range. And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they are "old", but I am saying that they are too old to date me.

I am pretty lonely though and the clock continues to click away. So who knows...

In the beginning...

Hell hath apparently frozen over. I am starting my very own blog. I do not know why this idea suddenly possessed me, but I'm running with it none-the-less. I have no grand scheme or delusions that anyone else will even read it. I'm doing it for myself (...that's what she said...). I guess I'm looking for a way to share my thoughts, opinions, ideas, and other random BS that pops into my head. I figure if I'm writing, I'm not eating, and that in itself is reason enough. If there is anyone out there in cyber-land reading this, Welcome to Confessions of My Reality. It's sure to be a trip.
