I joined eharmony. I got tired of the dating scene or lack there is so I thought I would try something new. For the most part it has been slow going and I am kind of ready to stop paying month to month for this service that I don't feel like I am getting anything out of.
I did meet a guy and we are dating right now. He is nice but I don't get the butterflies from him it may be b/c I know I really don't have time and he lives an hour away from me which makes things hard. He also works an odd shift where his days off are Mon and Tues and he works nights. Its hard for me to get out during the week with the monster and finding a sitter. I can get a sitter on the weekends easier but he works. So we are trying.
I have had 2 experiences that make me want to scream. The first was this guy who started the process with me, I will admit I don't start the process. I am not that bold. So I knew this guy wasn't going to be for me, he was too old, lived to far away, and way to into appearance so I couldn't figure out why he was communicating with me. Well I found out that POS decided to get to the open communication part where you can email back and forth and the first email is reaming me out for having a child and then getting a divorce. Are you kidding me buddy??? Oh I was so hot, I responded telling him that basically its none of his business and to go to hell then I closed the match. I don't need that and if he was only going to yell then he shouldn't have contacted me!!!
Experience number 2 is still going on but I am annoyed which only solidifies my desire to get off this website!!! I am a closet smoker. I don't smoke around my child, family, and those I know do not like smoking. I try not to smell like smoke but its my decision. I don't hide this fact on eharmony so if someone is matched with me why would they choose to talk to me knowing that I smoke? It's so aggravating. This guy wasn't too bad until his smoking rant. I cannot argue with him b/c he is right but why would he choose to talk to me then? Lordie, I don't talk to those I see something and don't like it. I mean come on now buddy.
Let me just say a few things about this. I do not plan to smoke the rest of my life, I have a cut off date which is nearing. I also know that if I ever plan to have a child I will quit b/c I wouldn't do that to a child. So why then do I smoke, I don't know. I have thought about going to a hypnotise to try and quit then I would never want to smoke again. I guess we will see where the future leads but oh am I annoyed. I just want to scream at this point.
So the moral of this blog: dating is dating no matter where you are! Some people can luck out and find the person of their dreams on Eharmony and some can do the same thing at a bar or through a friend or on the street. It just happens. Blah!

TV again
Ok so it's Saturday night and I sit here reflecting on this week and all the awesome premiers!!!
Monday- I did not watch Dancing, I caught the high lights online. I cannot always sit through this for some reason. I will try to watch it some but the CBS comedies were unbelievably laugh or loud funny.
Big Bang-Sarah Gilbert wasn't on but Sheldon on drugs was so funny.
How I met your mother-again so funny I cannot wait to see if Teds new chick is his kids mom.
2 and a half men-also funny just good to laugh.
Tuesday-NCIS holy cow its the little asian chick she is the bad guy. I think Gibbs knows though but I am slow glad the crew is back together, I am sure Tony will be back soon.
Without a Trace-I wanted to see what would happen with Sam and Jack and they didn't show any of it, blah. Still a good show. Although its annoying whenever Steven Webber comes on a show he is a jerk.
Wed-Criminal Minds it is so sad to say but I am glad it wasn't one of the regular team members. I think Morgan might be getting a new job so I wonder what that means for his character on the show?
CSI:NY so I fell asleep for the last 10 min of this show. I am sure they got "Joe" since Mac was starting to remember things. I was about Flack's sister though, did she know anything about it. I will have to try to find this out online.
Thrusday- Greys--yay Meridith and Derrick are actually going to have a go at it. Lexie needs to tell George how she feels and Alex needs to stop being an ass!!! Oh and I am glad Rose isn't preggers and is moving onto another specialty she was being so childish!
ER-holy crap!!! Pratt is dead! it took all my might not to cry it was so sad. Especially when you saw the tears rolling down his face as he realized what was happening and then his brother struggling. I know ER has lost some audience lately and it is true how much can possibly happen in one place!! I mean every year they are having some sort of issue. well this week coming is Abby's last day in the ER at least they are setting her off on a happy life with Luka and Joe.
So this week we have to look forward to:
Sunday 9/28 after the Cowboys/Redskins game
Desperate Housewives--it jumps a head 5 years from where we saw it ending last year. Eddie will be back with a new husband, Susan has a new young thing, and Gabby now has 2 children! oh the time changes. Can't wait to see where the writers take this.
Brothers and Sisters-just a good show. It will be interesting to see where Justin and Rebecca's relationship goes.
Monday 9/29-Chuck Chuck and more Chuck
This is such a cute little show. how will it go with Casey trying to kill chuck????? only this season will tell and will he ever find out how his partner really feels?
Happy Watching...

TV
I am total TV dork! I prefer that to the actual name I should use which is couch potato. I just have to share how excited I am that this week shows are finally premiering. There are so many shows!! I would love to show you the page I have been looking at but I couldn't figure out how to get it copied over to the blog so here is the link: http://www.tvguide.com/special/fall-preview-2008/calendar.aspx
I am such a dork, I don't want to leave the house at night, I don't want the child to give me any trouble I just want to be left alone with my tv to enjoy the night. How bad is that? I know bad right. I have a friend who has been blogging about his likes and dislikes so I thought I would follow his lead.
Monday 9/22:
Dancing with the stars--this is mindless and I watch it b/c my mom yells at me if I don't.
The big bang theory--sarah gilbert is going to be a regular OMG OMG Darlene and David are back together, now I may watch this more.
how I met your mother--this one is cute and I will catch it when I remember
Two and a half men--just a funny show my dad loves this one and calls my son jake so sometimes I will watch.
There isn't really a 10pm show I am diggin but we will see, also Hero's is back, I am not a huge fan but plenty of others are.
Tuesday 9/23
NCIS-I cannot wait to see how they wrap this up!!! The team was split up in the season final last season!!! one of the writers said they will not do play this out like House did where the old regulars are now walk ons, yay!!!
Without a trace--this show is awesome but it has been up against ER for a while so I couldn't switch over. I did watch the last season final and now cannot wait to see if Sam takes Jake up on his offer to help with the baby!!
Also SVU comes back but since it's on re runs on USA all the time I don't have to watch that in prime time.
Wednesday 9/24
Criminal Minds--the final last season had each team member getting into a black suv then a black suv blowing up well in the promos it's not a team member that is critically hurt which kind of takes some of the suspense away but I will be watching.
CSI:NY--Mack is a hostage when this comes back!!! I want to see what happens with Montana and Danny, will he fess up and will she take him back? or is it done for good???
Also a fun show if you are in the mood New Adventures of old Christine--its got its moments and Wanda Sykes is so funny I bet you could make milk come out your nose watching her.
Thursday 9/25
Greys---Yay! Meridith and Derrick are finally back together and the writers promise we will get to see happily ever after!! also Izzy should be getting some decent stories!!! So I guess we will see what happens with Izzy and Alex. I have a standing date to watch this show with my co-worker!! it's awesome.
ER--the last season ever!! sob, I really like this show but I understand after 15 seasons it might be time to go. Hopefully out with a bang!!! Uncle Jessie is sooo hot.
Also Ugly Betty returns I have been unable to get completely involved in this one but when I do I like it. It's annoying all the leaks over the summer, with moving the set to NY the actor who plays Gio is not making the switch so she won't be with him and the actor that plays Henry is getting his won show again leaks make me sad some days.
So I will update next week on what I think of the returns and also on the last of the premier's.
Happy watchin...

Girls weekend
The plan: To go on a girls weekend to the beach.
The Players: My bff, her older sister and her younger sister
The beginning: In May my bff asked me if I would like to go on this trip with her and her sisters. Hells yes I reply. I haven't been on a girls weekend ever and this would be fun. So we get it all planned and since I had just paid off a credit card, we put it on my card to allow everyone some time to get the money to me to pay for this.
Issue # 1: The older sister decides in July she cannot come b/c it will cost too much. The deal was if you could not go someone would have to be found to take your place before you get your money back. That was the fair way to do things. Well someone else was found, a friend of the younger sister, but the older sister didn't get her money back fast enough so she got nasty and blew up everyones email. Ok she got her money she has now shut up and after her behavior, I am done planning anything ever again with her. Mind you I have known this family for almost 15 years so it's not like I made this decision lightly.
After all of that and it went on for a good month everyone would be all dramaed out. Well you would be wrong....
Issue #2: who is driving? My bff offered to drive if we would help with gas money. She said about $20-25 a person to get us to the beach and back. Not a problem until 2 weeks before we are to leave when the younger sister decides she doesn't have too much money and wants us to ride in her car. The issue is between a mustang and a scion. I think the mustang is bigger and that my bff is a better driver. I would rather go with her. Well the younger one isn't having that, she wants to take her car. So I offer up mine, a PT- 4 door sedan!! My bff says that would be fine but the younger sister is offended that bff will willing go in my car and not hers. Again I have a bigger more accomadating vehicle. Whatever.
So I am not done and there was no resolution to that one.
Issue # 3: When we will leave to get there and come home. The younger sister emails me about this and I tell her I have to drop off my son by 8 and can be at bff house a little after that. We would then have to pick her up b/c she isn't leaving her car at bff's house and be on the road by 9-9:30. Well that's too late according to her. Fine why don't you meet us somewhere? Oh no she cannot do that b/c then she would have to leave her car.
Coming back I said that I wanted to be home by 6 to pick up my son from daycare and again she has a cow!!! b/c she doesn't want to be home that early. Now mind you we are leaving Friday morning and won't be back until Monday night. We all have children and all have to work on Tuesday so I don't think being home by 6 is a bad thing at all.
So b/c of this she decides she is going to drive herself. Now if you remember from issue #2 she didn't have $20 for gas but now she has enough money to drive herself.
I lost it at this point and told her just that, also throwing in that I don't have a husband to watch my child when ever I want to go out like she does.
She responded about how she didn't know there would be time constraints and all of this other crap so she would drive herself and her friend. Good I am glad.
However all is not over as the two sisters then get into an escalated argument about all of this and the final resolution: ...the trip has been cancelled....
This sucks on a number of levels. 1 I dont get this fun girls weekend I have been looking forward to but more importantly 2 b/c this went on my credit card and the credit will be on my card i now have to reimberse the other 3. My bff is being decent about it and told me to take my time, I will reimberse the friend right away b/c she had nothing to do with this. but the younger siser who by the way shorted me $15 in the first place will also have to wait.
Times like these make me glad I don't have biological sisters. I have some great girl friends who are like sisters but no biological just 2 stinky brothers. So this was my fun over the past few days at work I am so done!!!
Thanks for reading the silly saga of a friend and two sisters....

Are you kidding me LiLO
So I am at home today b/c the monster is sick so I was browsing the internet and found this:
http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20222833,00.html
It was on people where she takes to her myspace blog where she says that parents should talk to their children about safe sex since McCain's running mate has a 17 year old daughter who is preggers. I have been quite about this revelation as I wanted to see how things would progress. I am happy to see that both McCain and Obama said it was a personal manner that isn't really anyone's business. I am glad they both did that so where in the hell does Lindsay Lohan get off going on about teen pregnancy??????
This from the girl who lived with Fez (from That 70's show) when she was 17, the girl who went to rehab before she was 21 for alcohol and probably other stuff. Where was her mom? Was she talking to her??? I mean come on now, do not act all high and mighty when you were never perfect? I mean Leanne Rimes could say something as she never had to go to rehab, got arrested for drunk driving, or was involved in a car chase with people not driving your car. Oh and Leanne's career is still going strong, where is Lindsey's????
Thanks for reading the vent. I couldn't keep quite about this mo-ron thinking she has the right to chastise anyone.
