You know you want to!!

So, this past weekend my best gal pal got married. It was beautiful, touching, and oh so much fun! But at the same time it made me start to contemplate internet dating once again. She met her now hubby online and he turned out to be a keeper, so should I try it again?

No need to answer that, I already set up my account.

To be completely honest, having an account on an online dating site makes me feel like a total reject. Yet, I know I'm not a reject. I can get dates on my own, but I feel as though opening the gates to the internet might allow me to put myself a little more out there. So, now I'm out there. All the way out there.

In other news, since my friend got married, I feel at a loss. She's gone. She's not coming back. Now what do I do? I find myself relying heavily on my group of girlfriends. I love them all, but its not like they email me everyday to tell me the latest happenings. But my Erin was (and still is) my best friend and now that she's not living nearby, I'm mourning. Who will eat Indian with me every Thursday? Who will go with me to Chipotle and sneak the food into a movie? Who will listen as I lament of lost loves and my pathetic (yet drama-filled) life?

Too much of a whine fest? Yeah, I thought so too.

Next week is Christmas and I'm OH-SO-EXCITED! I love giving presents to my family and I find it quite a challenge to find them the perfect something. However, the hardest part of buying gifts is not buying something for myself. Which I failed to do yet again this year. I can't pass up on Nordstrom. I can't afford it, but I can't pass it up either. So, I bought myself a new jacket for the holidays and a piece of jewelry to go with it. Shame on me!!

Yeah, so this is where I now encourage all my friends to get internet dating accounts and to swap stories with me.

Because if I'm going to be a reject, I'm not going down alone.

I have to admit, I feel like a reject internet-dating too. But then, I've seen some success stories, so who knows? And the idea that all my other girlfriends are doing it definitely makes me feel better.

Perhaps our super-secret book club can double as an internet-daters support group too!

I'm famous on your blog! Woo hoo! Thanks for saying such nice things about my wedding. :o) I liked it, too!

BTW, I miss you too! Wish we lived closer so that we could still hang often. Sniff...
