I needed a distraction, so I joined an online dating site. *sigh*
While I don’t enjoy trying to meet people with a few pictures and 2500 words or less, I am starting to find some humor in it. Take screen names for example, a relatively simple thing. You pick a name, add some numbers if it’s taken or pick something else. I picked a variation of an old nickname and have been accused by one profile viewer of intentionally posing as a Native American to make myself seem more exotic. That’s been keeping me up at night, sooo I started making some notes of my first impressions of the screen names chosen by the single, forty something males who have viewed my profile. Good times.
