Future Matchers

This week has flown by, thank you Labor Day!  Wait, no I take that back, as Labor Day means summer is over & the new Tommy Bahama bikini I bought on sale (marked down from $170 to $40 - 2 words BAR GAIN) has gone unworn.  I'm a sure there are many beach goers out there breathing a collective sigh, but still.  I will have to return for a pair of cute new shoe booties that I have my eyes on.  Bikini season is sadly over 250 days away!  Say it ain't so!

Besides this week & summer being over I am sadly saying goodbye to the BMW.  Yes, my trusty sidekick for the past 3 years is going back.  Boo hoo!  Now what?  Hard to be shallow & narcissistic driving around in a 6 year old SUV with a bike rack, but on to the next adventure.  My picks on Match this week have been much better than the first 2 dates.  I should say 1 & 1/2 dates, as the second date (the texter) never really turned into a real life date.  He is, however, still texting me daily.  I wonder how long this will go on?  I haven't responded since Monday & I am still getting them.  Could you imagine if we actually went out & he liked me?  Good God I am shaking just thinking about it!

I am getting better at this whole winking thing.  At first I was a bit nervous about winking, but since this is an experiment I have thrown all caution to the wind & wink at every Tom, Dick & Justin out there.  Who cares, right?  Maybe some of them will turn into real dates!  Yeah, doubtful.  But I'm still winking, especially at the hot guys.  Hey, I found one hot guy before, no two!  So maybe I can sucker another one.  Third times a charm, right?  :)

One guy emailed me, with phone number, & seemed very normal.  Lived in NYC (yes not in Monmouth County - broke rule #1 already) but he seemed nice.  This is the semi-professional football player.  I still have to email him back.  I'm not so great at responding so far.  Another guy is an engineer.  Uh oh.  I work with 20 engineers & engineer type guys all day.  Not sure if I should go out with any after work, but he seems very normal & very nice.  His only flaw so far is that he looks like my cousin's husband.  But again, it is just a date, I don't have to marry him!

The funny thing about Match is that anyone from anywhere can search for you, wink at you and/or email you.  Yep, the 60 year old guy from Cicero, NY just winked at me about an hour ago.  Hey, sure that's only 6 hours from my house & you're almost the same age as my dad, lets go out!  Soon!  For drinks!  What-ever.

I did muster up the energy to run tonight, for those who read my blog solely for the workout aspect (LOL) & I have been thinking a lot about trying another 70.3 IM.  I have two choices picked out.  One is in Rhode Island next July.  Or my other, totally unrealistic & half baked idea is Ironman 70.3 UK.  Yes, UK as in England.  My sister is dying to go to London next summer & I figure this would be a great addition to our family vacation.  Hahahahaha.  Yes, I hear you all laughing too.
