First Monday

The first Monday of the new year is almost over and I can barely keep my eyes open.  The only thing that got me through a full day of work was knowing how many shows were on tonight.  Television is the only reason I'm happy the holidays are over.  Now we can get back to the fashionable, scandalous high schoolers on Gossip Girl, the 8 cutest kids (well really only 6 are cute-the older ones are kind of annoying) on Jon & Kate plus 8, the pathetic baby mommas looking for love on the Bachelor and my future BFF Whitney who now lives in THE CITY!!  Do you think she would be my friend if I met her?  

Ok onto another topic...about a month ago I tried to cancel my Match subscription, but somehow the day I canceled it was also the renewal date and they charged my credit card for another 3 months!!!!  I tried to get them to refund it, but they only do that if you "find love".  Jerks!  So the week after I came to terms with Match not budging I got an e-mail from a guy who was cute enough and I liked his profile.  I wrote him a really good e-mail.  He wrote me back barely acknowledging the questions I asked, etc.  Instead he asked to see more of my pictures (there are at least 6 on my profile) and wrote "here's some generic information about myself".  Ugh as if I would waste time putting together more pictures to send him and another response when his was so lame.  I didn't write him back and then yesterday I got an e-mail from him saying "I hope your new year's resolution is to write me back (wink)"  He actually wrote out wink like that.  Thank god I didn't write him back.  Also, the one guy from Match that I actually went out for a little while (I told him it wasn't happening in November) sent me a text on Saturday night (as I was drinking a dirty martini out of a pint glass-see previous post) at 12 a.m. saying "how's life treating you-btw it's &@#"(that's his name in code).  At 12 am on a Saturday night he wanted to know how life was treating me?!?!  I'm probably going to hell for being so mean, but obviously I'm not interested if I told him I wasn't interested over a month ago.  Hello!  Now I'm hating Match even more for holding me hostage.  

Then Melin & I came up with a plan.  I have zero interest in weeding through these guys.  Soooo I'm giving her my ID & password and she's going to pretend to me.  She has to respond to/write e-mails to guys she thinks I'd like.  She sets up the date and then I just show up.  That's the plan for the next 3 months unless it works and I "find love" and Match gives me back my money.  

K now I've ignored the bachelor and have no idea who any of these losers are.  Don't worry, I DVRed it.

  3. You can! Melin isn't doing what was agreed upon and she's leaving for Ireland. I will happily give my ID & password to anyone who wants to play matchmaker.
