Are we jerks?
So after reading the post from KP via her mom, I kept wondering, are we jerks?
I mean our punishment is making some single guy eventually feel lame. What if we were some 4 dude's punishment? Now I spent all weekend watching Rom Coms (which KT told me is now off limits) so maybe I have too many Sixteen Candles/Rachel Leigh Cook moments in my head, and the guilt is seeping in.
But it got me thinking, maybe the real punishment should only punish ourselves. Or really punish ourselves...and get THIS:
If we can't manage to get off our ass, pony up and get 4 dates in 2 months, then maybe the punishment is to give a reason as to WHY we won't be getting them in the future...
Just sayin.

Dealbreakers?
Just went on date 2 of 4 with Doug. Doug is nice. Doug is funny. Doug is interesting. Doug kissed me while seated at the bar mid-date. Out of nowhere. Two times in a row. Since when is this acceptable first date behavior?
Also, Doug referred to a bad picture of himself in which it looked like he had a double chin. He's convinced himself he doesn't have one. (Note: the day before this, my friend and I photoshopped Doug's almost double chin out of the picture to see his jawline potential).
Dealbreakers? Probs.

DTC - 2 Questions
AHH - Ok ladies another round of our favorite game - DTC. Two below for your review.
1. He gave me silly band. A lil third grade - however I'm still 0-4
2. Guy from out of town here for work and we're meeting up later for dinner - but after his client dinner. Oh and he's only here for one night. And no I haven't slept with him.
Thoughts?

post-date eval
Ok, first blind/online date went really well... or so I'd like to believe.
Experienced ladies, do any of the following indicate otherwise?
-He had to go one hour/one drink in. To be fair, he told me this 24 hours in advance. Friend's bday. Who has friends?!?
-He totally knows the guy I just hired. Like, besties. He also made it clear that I couldn't hire him. (My real motivation.)
-He mentioned a date with someone else, while on my date. To be fair, it was an important part of the story in a conversation I brought up...
-We talked about raising kids. In New York. Ok, I'm reading way too into this, I know.
-Asked if he had any fun plans for the weekend. Nothing. (Note: this is where you either ask me the same question in return, or ask me out again.)
-He was cute, really smart, but had little sense of humor. In retrospect, probably shouldn't have asked for his "numba."
-Speaking of which, I have no number and no email.
Ok, I think I answered my own question.
P.S. Everything at the bakery across the street is half off from 9 to 11pm. Thank you, bad date, for having me home in time.

SIGN up NOW.
KT just sent me today's groupon saying "this is us." And she couldnt have been more right.
First of all, any promotion dropping "Legends of the Hidden Temple" in the FIRST few words of the description, has my automatic vote:
"Finding the right person in life can be like assembling the silver monkey in Legends of the Hidden Temple, a challenge requiring wits, luck, and passing knowledge of primate anatomy."
Some other highlights include:
* Complimentary Sauza Cocktail Hour 8 p.m.–9 p.m.
* So You Think You Can Dance Off—Dance Competition (the excitement I show at this portion may keep me single 4ever)
*Free flirt advice from Laurie Davis, founder of eFlirtExpert.com (ok lame, but just funny)
Anyway, lets do it!!

Being set up, part 2
So I was checking out one of my best friend's updated website and I'm all:
Me: Um, when are you gonna set me up with that hot guy from the commercials you made last year? I need 4 dates by Sept 15!
Friend: I sure as hell could try. I think he may have a gf but not really sure. He's nice but sorta dumb.
Me: Hmm...trying to figure out how much i care (about the dumb, not the gf, that's obvi not my style). Ugh, i guess i should care. Like if they can, you know, spell and all.
Friend: OOhhh You could go on a date with my fiance's friend "x." It would totes go nowhere but it would be entertaining for sure.
Me: hahahaha. This is so sad, that these are my new parameters.
Friend: He just graduated film school, lives in like Spanish Harlem, trying to be an actor. Great guy but like nerd/frat guy/wannabe actor.
Me: Oh trying to be actors. they are funny. (Never intentionally).
Friend: Seriously, you should go on a date with him. I guarentee you'd end up wasted and doing something foolish.
Me: That is not good!! I cant go hussying my way around the city as a consequence for not being able to get real dates...
Friend: LOL, fair enough.
