Does that work?

Sure it does if you find the right person.

I gave up on looking. The speed dating thing at CVI really sucked. Perhaps I'll do it at C2E2 since the girls will be more local. But it really really sucked at CVI. I don't remember if I told you guys about this. There was ONE girl who I really hit it off with. She was fantastic, and she was from SE WI (Racine or Kenosha, I forget which). After the speed dating, I waited around for her (which you are not supposed to do). After she exited, she went straight up to a dude, and they kissed. He was NOT in the speed dating. He was waiting for her. She already had a boyfriend! I think she was paid to be there! There were a few girls who walked in after the session had started, and she was one of them. I think they went out and rounded a few girls up and paid them.

That sucks they should not be allowed to use fillers in that situation. it is just wrong.

I guess you have to not look. Just let it be.

I talk to so many people at conventions it is nuts. There are some really great people out there.

Just got done shoveling the driveway... ugh. I laugh at Waller's pic of 3" of snow... ours was more like 9"-11" on the driveway.
Not a fan.

For once the storm missed us!!! No snow here! Just the ridiculous cold...

Mine tolerates mostly. The tattoo almost sent him over the edge though...

But like Joseph, mine likes GOT and TWD! Almost more than me at times.

My ex GF never wanted to watch any film I love. Star Wars, LOTR, and so on. She even hated me working out. Her personality was great and we had fun hanging but in the end it failed. I csnt help but think if she enjoyed a few more things I loved it woulda worked out.

Sometimes I wonder if the over hype of shows like this is what pulls them in more than love of the content itself.

Yeap ... I really feel you. It sucks cause it means I have to watch alone, but I barely have alone time... And when I do a lot of times I am dead tired.

Yup... And when I do have alone time I'm normally drawing or working on a figure.

I also shy away from online dating sites, because of a bad experience I had when it first started. I only tried it once. I was thin, and had a full head of hair back then. I picked the girl up at her house. She was standing outside, talking on the phone. She gave me the "one second" finger, went in her house, grabbed her jacket, and we were off. We were doing "dinner and a movie", which I no longer like to do after this experience. We get to the theater, and I pay for both of us. I buy us snacks. We get our seats. She says she's going to run to the bathroom and will be right back. SHE NEVER RETURNED! She must have given a signal to her friend on the phone to pick her up at the theater. Instead of coming up with an excuse to cancel the date, she leads me on, I pay for both tickets and lots of food, only to get the shaft. That was my last online dating experience. Perhaps it has improved in the last 10 years, but I'll never forget that one terrible experience.

I didn't know you two have been together for so long. You got me and Rhonda beat by 4 1/2 years!

Like yesterday, I had time to myself. But... after the gym, then coming home to make dinner... it was already 8:00. I sat down to watch something and was napping within 20 minutes.

Then I wake up, have to prep my meals for the next day, iron clothes and get my bag ready. Lay down to watch TV and I'm ready to knock out.

It just sucks.

My wife hates almost everything I love. It sucks...

You guys were chatty today. I'll have to catch up when i get to work.

That's what I was trying to tell you last night when we were messaging. Stupid shows my wife makes me watch.....Vanderpump Rules....

It's inhuman.... the whole group of these self absorbed morons are eating at some place in Cabo for this chicks birthday. One of her friends is brutally dumped at the table by her boyfriend and when she wants to go to her room because she's heartbroken the birthday girl totally rips into her and calls her selfish, telling her "It's my birthday, this isn't about you." It was beyond anything I could imagine. The most petty *** people ever.

Ouch, Ken... That is horrible and she was a horrible person. That pisses me off.

I now appreciate my wife even more... she did go through a Desperate Housewives stint, but watched it primarily on a tablet or while I was doing other stuff. And generally these types of shows are not her thing.

I think bad karma is coming at me because I possibly let one get away...
I knew a girl, and had a lot in common with her. I was NEVER interested in her romantically, but she had it for me big-time. Her friend kept telling me how crazy she was about me, but I truly wasn't interested. Then I planned a trip to Las Vegas. She lived in L.A. She was really twisting my arm to come visit me. Finally I gave in, and said she could. She was gonna stay in my room, but just for the one night. Well, she brought booze with her and intentionally got me drunk. But I knew what she was doing. I wasn't that drunk. However, I went along with it, and slept with her. After that, she thought we were boyfriend and girlfriend. I still just wanted to be friends, but she wanted so much more. The hard part was, we had SOOOO much in common! But I just wasn't interested. Besides the lack of attraction, these were negative factors:
1) She lived in L.A., I lived in Milwaukee.
2) She was really really really into video games. I'm talking hard core, playing 12-16 hours a day.
3) She was unemployed (hence, the ability to play games 12-16 hours a day)
4) She was heavily in debt (partly due to being unemployed)
5) I hesitate to list this one, but I'm being honest here. She was unable to have kids, because she previously had cancer. Now, if this was someone I loved, I could deal with this. But I really wasn't into her, and this factor didn't help.

When I ended things, she didn't take it well. I felt terrible about it. Every now and then I think to myself that maybe I'll never do better than her. I've never met anyone that cared that much about me. But unfortunately it wasn't also the reverse.

Are you saying CVI hired hookers?!?!

Next time send them to Chien's room.
