Plenty Of Fish

Plentyoffish.com
What a fantastic website. It's got the same set up as eHarmony & Lavalife to a slight lesser extent, and best part, it's free for cheapies like me who believe that all true things in life should be.

So off I went to make myself a quick profile; 9 rewritten self descriptions (what can I say, obsessestive compulsive) and a couple messages later and I'm chatting to singles in Ottawa. Sad to say only a few profiles REALLY stood out, but those that did, so far, are really decent people.

So Sunday I'm off to meet this one guy who, oddly enough, was an instant click, but it raises the question in me about dating, how do you know who and when to date? How fast do you move? To explain myself better; I've gone on a couple dates with this other guy, he's a great, fun, spontaneous, easy going guy whos romantic to boot, but there's no spark, he doesn't want to get married, and I don't dance, both of which are qualifying traits for us. 7 Dates and we're already making out even though we know its not going anywhere, and despite this knowledge I still feel ridiculously guilty for going to go and meet this other guy.

On a possitive, less complicated side of life I got an amazing new job with steady hours as a bakers assistant. Granted its wholesale and not as stimulating as I'm used to but oh, I can't wait to get my hands on those dough recipies! :)

Tired of Waitin' for the World to Change

I'm not sure exactly what I want out of life but I do know one thing.
I want it to change.

Recently single after 3 1/2 years + daughter
Apartment Renos
New Pets (Ferrets)
New Job(s)
Starting My Own Business
Finishing My High School
Applying to School for Architecture Technition

But even with all of this going on I'm not content. Not even a little.
Sure, I'm over coming incredible hurdles thrown my way, making the best of life and living each day incredibly; but it still feels like I'm waiting for something, for someone. It's this intense feeling of waiting, the one that makes you want to jump up and down and check your watch every 5 seconds, this is driving me crazy and I need to find it. So...this is my personal blog, and the only thing missing from my personal life seems to be a man I can be 100% intimate, intense, and myself with.

My current task admidst life and its turmoltuous currents?
To Start Dating.
eHarmony here I come!
