Hello guys and dolls, why yes, it has been a while. What can I say, it's hard to get a date amid 'relationship season'. But do not fear as Spring is slowly making it's way in...not only a time where the weather finally gets warmer, but a time when you start getting more active to shed off that extra winter weight (ladies, amirite?)and when single men come out of hibernation after the span of holiday months with pre-requisite gift giving and/or forced into proclaiming their fondness of whomever they are dating for however long with chocolates and flowers. I did however have a brief almost encounter that was a bit amusing so here we go.
HOUDINI
So I connected with Houdini online. His message was very witty and we had a good back and forth. He said he lost his early 20's to golf and could teach me how (I put learn to golf under my profile since I may one day actually need to know for work) After a few messages he asked to call me and we set a time. Our phone call went well and was fairly comfortable. He texted me a day or so after with how it was nice to talk to me the other night and that LaPierre scored a goal which made him think of me (Canucks Jersey in profile). At the time I was behind on my 'Nucks stuff but had heard a bunch of rumors before trading time and Houdini said Loungo was getting traded. Being the dum-dum that I am at times I didn't realize he was joking until about the 3rd text when he said he was pulling my leg. So at that point I figured he either thought I was gullible (which I can be at times) or that I was a fake Canuck fan....
On a Saturday I went to the driving range and I sent him a text for him to wish me luck. We ended up texting the rest of the weekend so I figured everything was good...but there was never a phone call or any talk of meeting up. Then he sent me a 'Happy Valentine's' text as well which I thought was sweet and I wished him one back. But I haven't heard from him since. A few days later I sent him a text asking how the rest of his week was and that still came up unanswered.
I also noticed the week after that his profile had disappeared.
So what do we learn from this? Don't return a Valentines sentiment to someone you aren't seeing yet? Nah, that can't be it. I think he was just too intimidated by my gullibleness...
(Yeah, I know, not so funny as the others....but I didn't have much to work with this time. I'm sure there will be more soon. That or I'll just give up and go buy some cats and blog about them)
