So my match.com struggle continues... I've refocused my hatred toward them (even after they shut my account down briefly this weekend, just as I found someone I really actually wanted to email). We're believing and achieving. Seems spring has officially sprung, since I've gotten more emails in the last week than I have in the last 3 months combined. Nothing like a little pollen, fresh air and sunshine to jumpstart someone's libido. Now I just need to respond to some of these guys. Granted, a few of them I just emailed to fulfill my quota, but why is it the ones you truly want to write back never seem to? sorry, sorry, I lapsed from believing and achieving there. My other problem is, after an email or so, I begin attaching qualities that they may or may not possess, based on who they remind me of in my life. Not the best way to begin any relationship. So I muddle along, hoping that the one I like at this juncture will write back and that my past romantic karma hasn't fucked the whole thing up already. And yes, I know it's wrong to delay my responses until next month's quota kicks in, even if it is still nine days away. My match.com procrastination is worse than my writing procrastination and starting/finishing the kitchen curtains procrastination. But I'm unemployed now so there's nothing to do but procrastinate and watch the plants grow. Or try to get off my ass and work out. Or finish projects that should have been done years ago. Or consume way more than my daily allotment of Clif Bars. Or drink beer and watch baseball midday. That's another option as well. Okay... first unemployment morning pages have been completed!
