So why am I doing this?

Ok, so you or someone you know has at least thought about online dating. Everyone has formed an opinion about it. My first opinion was "I would never do that! I want something organic!" Then after being on the dump-ee side of things with the same guy *again*, I decided that my options are kind of limited right now.

I have a full-time job. I go to the same places every week. I don't enjoy meeting people at bars of clubs. And quite frankly my workplace has a terrible dating pool. It's not even a kiddie pool. It's a $2 fishbowl at best.

So out of mostly curiosity and my sense of adventure, I figured I'd give this a shot. The age-old hypothetical questions followed: "why not?" "what do I have to lose?"

I will post my musings about men I've encountered online, poke fun at silly user names, and hopefully in the future I will post about future dates. So far this is a slow process. I've done my share of winking at potential wooers, sent a couple smart ass messages to intriguing men, and politely declined your grandfather's chat requests.

Let's see where the rest of this adventure takes us shall we?
