day 52... let's try this again

I take no credit for this photo.

So I am not the type of person who would give up so easily. A few days ago, I resubscribed to an online dating website. The last time I was in, I did not have any luck at all until the last two days of my subscription when I received a 'wink' , as they call it from this gal. We started off with a nice dinner date at the bar and grill then ended up taking a 3 hour walk around town. We talked each others' ears off. All in all a great first date! Very eager to see each other again, we took the train to downtown Chicago and spent the night at Navy Pier. We took a ride on the Ferris Wheel (if you have never been on the Navy Pier Ferris Wheel at night, I highly suggest you do so... the view of the Chicago skyline is simply amazing). She even came by out of nowhere to drop of lunch for me at work; I mean come on... sounds perfect, right? A few days later, I receive a text message saying that she could not talk to me anymore. After finally prying it out of her, she told me that she was engaged and that she was moving in her fiance... talk about getting mind-fucked. Days ago, I was in one of the best dates I have had by far.. and now. Shit.

And then the kicker... months later, she calls me up totally out of the blue and asks how I was doing. Then she tells me her story... her fiance ended up being a prick and broke of the engagement as they planned the wedding. And she wanted to go out with me again and see what happens.

Now I am giving it another whirl... after trying the traditional pick ups to speed dating. I am willing to give this another chance. Wish me luck!!!!


**RANT** (Peter Griffin of Family Guy) You know what really grinds my gears... every fucking body on Facebook posting RIP notes about Whitney Houston. YOU DONT FUCKING KNOW HER, STFU! She was another celebrity who wasted away her talent, fame and credibility and ended up being a junkie. Live on with your life and keep giving us updates that no one cares about!


If any of my loved ones have posted of Whitney Houston... know that I love you and I do not think any less of you.
