Disappointment

I am going to explain this in an analogy form the best that I can -

You know if you have a friend that has the exact same purse that you used to have and lost - and then you see that friend out of the blue with that purse and you didn't expect it - and then you wonder where she got it, or where was she coming from, what was she doing - and then your brain goes haywire about all the possibilities and then you have to yell at yourself to STOP!!!!

Basically that is why I am disappointed in myself today.

I HATE Lamp

So, I TOTALLY should be working right now but I have to just say that I am somewhat upset w/ my living room lamp. This lamp is famous - as it is on my face book page in the background of the pic I took of Kid Rock on the TV for the grammy's.

None the less, this is the 2nd lamp I have gone thru because the first one just wouldn't stand on the base correctly. Now, I actually am incapable of turning it on. I actually HURT my fingers this morning trying to do so.

What frosts my fanny, what burns my apple is that now I have to resort to college kid behavior and turn the lamp on and off not by its own switch (because obviously it is mad at me for something) and use the on/off switch for my surge protector.

THAT'S IT LAMP - YOU, ME FLAG POLE 3pm... YOU ARE GOING DOWN!

And the Oscar goes to....

I love the Oscars like it is my job... It is my favorite award show because it simply puts all my favorite people in the same room through whom I live vicariously.

My first question to the Attorney on site of the filming of the MOLE was when do I get my membership card for being a member of the ACADEMY (or the Screen Actors Guild) so I could vote for the Oscars. I was sadly disheartened when he LAUGHED (threw his head back and laughed to heavens) to my question. Reality shows do not afford that kind of benefit to their casts (And thank goodness because Flava of Love, I love New York and Rock of Love would be the cast of shady characters picking best film of the year. Scary.)

I like how they changed the presentation of the big awards this year to have former winners speak about each nominee... It makes me misty... I cried for Penelope Cruz and stood up and applauded saying, "VIVA ESPANA!"

However, the Heath Ledger Oscar presentation got me good; floored me like a punch to the gut. A blubbering purple mess on the floor - which I haven't been since the FINALE of 90210! (And I know I will be that way for the in Memoriam too).

Good bless you OSCARS for being the highlight of my year. Maybe one year you will be sitting at home watching me THANKING THE ACADEMY... Wouldn't that be nice? I already know how my speech would start, "Most people thank God first - and that's what I am going to do first - I would like to thank MICHAEL J. FOX....."

Continuation to the addendum of E-harmony

OMFG - I just got off the phone with Pierre and Shane at TRUE.COM. I checked my bank account moments ago and saw a charge for $3.00 and $6.98 for true. UM EXCUSE ME? So, I called. On the day I saw that they charged me $50 I sent an email through their customer service stating I never once agreed to pay $50.... So, when I called and spoke to Pierre - he could tell me dates and times when they sent me an email but had NO recollection of me contacting them. So, I asked for a manager - so in total they charged me $59.97 - THEY WERE SO KIND TO REFUND ME $47.99.

Well, as I have learned here at my place of employment when someone doesn't like the service they receive THEY TELL 15 PEOPLE.

BOYCOTT TRUE.COM - THEY SUCK!

Interesting addendum to E-Harmony

I guess this past weekend was free for singles on all dating sites. So, I had made a profile for True.com but never used it. I don't know how it happened at all, but my credit card was charged for $50 to true.com... I may have put my info in previously and then decided I wasn't going to pay for it - but I DEFINITELY remember not clicking OKAY TO CHARGE ME MONEY!

Eharmony update

All of you who mentioned e-harmony to me, I heeded your advised and just checked it out... I am sorry - for the equivalent of $19.99/month for 1 year is $256. To sign up for just 1 month - $60!

That is absurd!

Plenty of Fish.... MY ASS

A friend of mine from high school, who found me on facebook, have been chatting about dating and meeting people. She advised me of a site called PLENTYOFFISH.COM. So, I posted a profile and started emailing (FOR FREE) to guys who were attractive or interesting. What I thought was interesting was there were a lot of model-esque guys on there, they must be trolling for hook ups. Nice. That should have been strike 1.

So, I see a guy who has his home town of Northfield, NH. Nice! I grew up in that area and my parents currently live in Northfield. Maybe he is a good ole boy, who knows. I send him an email and he responds with a four word answer. I try to create some banter, call him on his four word answers. NEXT he asks me if I like to give head. Um, excuse me? Okay - BLOCK PERSON!!!

I don't understand online dating, lord knows I have had quite a few first dates from online dating and a few short lived relationships, but where do guys get off thinking they can troll these sites and treat women like whores? How about don't put I AM LOOKING FOR A LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP and really only want a BJ.

Two people with in the last 24 hours have told me to try E harmony. While I think this is a great idea, something about having to pay to meet people makes me feel like a prostitute. Is this wrong? Is this old fashioned? What I do know is I am not going to meet people sitting in my living room watching re-runs of House. (believe me, I have tried and it doesn't work).

Plus, I am not a size 4. Guys want size 4 women without brains and preferably only to use their mouth for pleasuring them. The only guys that really email me from those sites are african american men. While there is nothing wrong with that, it doesn't pique my interest.

So, what is a single girl to do? I do not do the bar scene any more, plus- all the size 4's are out there wearing their pasties. I don't know what else to do. I know hanging out at the Concord Library isn't going to help either...
