I know I’ve been a bad blogger. I really don’t have an excuse since I haven’t done much with my days. Last weekend was spent finishing up the draft three of my project. I was completely unmotivated to get it down. Thankfully on Monday I realized that I had more done than I thought did. I was able to finish it up and send it off though I know it needs a lot of corrections. After reading my peer’s paper in the review process I felt better about my own paper.
Today I’m doing a little cleaning as my aunt and uncle are coming today. The house is mostly clean so it shouldn’t take too much effort. Though I still haven’t cleaned my bathroom. I should probably get that done.
I tried eharmony for the past three months and it seems totally pointless. I don’t know if the guys on there are just snobs, but I have gotten a total of three actual contacts that have emailed me. Not one of them are local and none of them came to anything – they all fizzled within a week. So now I’m trying match.com. This has had slightly more promise, but not much. Most of the men seem to be just as judgmental. I winked at one and emailed him – a forty-something year old man that had never been married and Catholic. He responded right away but immediately asked where my pictures were. I told him they were being “approved” but would be up within a day. And that’s the last I heard from him. Maybe I’m not as cute as I thought I was. I don’t think I’m drop dead gorgeous – far from it – but I don’t think I’m butt-ugly either. I could understand if I were 300+ pounds and made no effort with myself. I guess since I’m not model thin, blonde, athletic, and stupid that I don’t attract most men. Oh well. I don’t want someone that shallow anyway. I have emailed a guy in Albuquerque for the past week and a half, but that’s it. Nothing more than email and nothing really flirtatious either. He did say that if/when I come to ABQ that he’d like to go for coffee or something. So we’ll see. I have a three month deal on match.com and if nothing works out from it then I’ll probably give up on online dating again. I’m still not even sure what I want at this point. I mostly just want a date – maybe a good friendship.
Well, I need to go take a shower and make myself presentable for company. I’ll try to make an effort to post a little more often. Sorry Mago!

No "sorry" please.
I have been a very bad blogger, just haven't felt it lately.
The man situation... you just have to keep weeding them out. And that's easier said than done.
