It’s dangerous when I get out of work on time and come directly home with no plans in the evening. In a nutshell, I often get incredibly bored, jittery, and unable to focus on reading or watching TV. I hear my mother’s voice in my head saying, “Why don’t you go for a walk?” and in theory, she’s absolutely right. But, usually by then, it’s late, I’m jonsing for dinner, and then, just then, the boredom sets in.
This happened to me last night. I got home, had dinner, and then tried to catch up on House Hunters International in my Hulu queue. But, despite the lovely accents, I had no interest in watching a couple move from Ireland to Australia. Yawn. Ho Hum. Boredom ensued.
I visited Match, eHarmony, OkCupid. Same old faces. Same old profiles.
So I decided to check out Craig’s List. If you recall, I’ve done a Craig’s List experiment before and it entertained me for days.
But, this time, I took it more seriously and decided to write a real post to see if I attracted any decent guys amongst the dregs of society that usually hang out on CL.
Without listing the entire post, I basically said that I I’m looking for a man to share my life.
I wrote:
I own my own home and have a good job, so I spend a lot of time focused on my work. But, I’d really like to take a step back and make some room for an intelligent, hard working, honest, and nice guy.
