My Year of the Life of Leisure

I left my job, left my apartment, sold most everything in that apartment and embarked on a year of travelling and leisure. I am working on writing a couple of books. This might be one of them... But then, my chief pursuit is leisure, so who knows exactly what will happen.

On Dating (or at least, trying to)

Whoa. I think it's about time to get myself out in to the real world and try my odds there. Perhaps a couple weeks is too little, but I'm just not receiving the kind of responses that I'm interested in. Yes, I've had what could perhaps be called many responses to my ads, but honestly, I've gone on one date. Most of the guys that respond and I think "wow. Nice email." end with me looking at their photo and thinking "Not so much, even if my only options were you and a lunatic." OK. So maybe the guys aren't *that* bad, but perhaps you understand my meaning. I do believe looks are important, and the guys that respond to my ad are mostly not what I'm interested in.

Now, I look at photos first. If I can't imagine kissing the face, then it's a no. Without exception.

This means, once I move tomorrow, I will be doing things away from the computer. There is a lake not too far from my new place, and I will start walking there and see what happens (I mean, there was something potent in the air around the Seine, so I'm hoping that it was something potent to bodies of water, and not just a French thing...). I also plan on getting back into dancing again soon. In short, I am going to start trying to meet as many new men as possible.

I really don't want to be single now.

Oh. This is sooo much fun! >smirk<
