Okay so let's be honest, I am a total slacker when it comes to updating this blog lately. It could be due to the fact that I am writing 3 scripts right now and holding down two jobs. But, it's not really that. I am just over it a little. But I will update from time to time. Here are a few wacky things that have gone on:
I had a birthday. The party I had for myself I found out that I am popular and that I am cursed. Popular because more than 15 people showed up despite me not really inviting many people personally. Cursed because after we'd had a good time for quite awhile a person at the table behind me fell back in his chair and had a seizure. The next night I went out with a friend and a fight broke out in the usually tame yuppie restaurant where we were munching on 20 dollar salads. I haven't really eaten out since then for fear of what could happen next. I may breed disaster but I'm popular. Is that good?
So, one more quick story today I was trolling around the internet when I noticed a status update from my fav snarky writer regarding an online dating service she'd joined. I looked up the site and answered a couple of questions thinking that it would allow me access to read about the site but what actually happened was that the questions led to more questions and after just a few minutes I wound up with an account. When I trolled around the site I came to the part where they pull up profiles of people they think you'd be interested in. I clicked on one to find that the person they thought I'd be good with had a completely blank profile.
If that didn't deter me enough I saw that you could take personality quizzes on the site. Thinking it was only a few quick questions I set out to find if I was a nerd, geek, or dork. So, I went through like 50 questions only to find out that instead of being a nerd, geek or dork I am an "Outcast Genius." Apparently, despite its name, this means that I am all three with higher parts nerd and this is a good thing.
And further still, if that weren't enough, I trolled around looking at profiles. I discovered what I already knew (Outcast Genius's are super friggin smart apparently)most of the people on dating sites cannot spell, aren't that interesting, and make absolutely no sense. For example I was "Winked" at by a guy who runs like 10K everyday. I have never run, ever. My friggin profile pic on that site is me next to a box of chocolate kids cereal for shits sake.
If that weren't enough I kept trolling around seeing if there was someone, anyone on the site that wasn't a complete tool. Finally, I found someone who didn't seem like a total idiot, perhaps a little freaky but not stupid. So, if finding him weren't enough, I messaged him and told him he should be proud of himself for not being an asshole. What a whirlwind I have been caught in. Well, I'm off to make fun of whomever else may have "Winked" at me in the time it's taken to write this blog.
Tip of the Day: Don't eat too much of that white powder you are supposed to put on your popcorn to make it taste like make-believe white cheddar.
