I didn't make it to the PB b-party, and never met up with the many wonderful people here. Instead I wallowed and stewed in my own self pitty. Great! Of course it involves my stupid internet dating misfortunes. Please mind my dumb ramblings like a drunken fool. I met a woman in Toronto who I had been chatting with for almost a month with. She had a few pics of me, and I had of her. So no surprises about that. We met, and had numerous drinks in the hotel bar, which I had no problem paying for (and the $250 a night room too...ahem). I had one of those moments where it felt a bit like a bliss...kinda like a manic high, but controlable, and it had nothing to do with her looks, or anything superficial. Physically I always just thought of her as an 'average' looking woman...but that didn't even matter...because she had brains and a good heart and soul. But, when it came to me...it was like, I could feel it...she was giving me the cold shoulder! I dressed nice...smelled nice (100 buck cologne!)...well groomed and all....but I guess because I didn't jump out like the 'American Idiot'...err...I mean American Idol (lol) I wasn't good enough. But jeez...she had my pic?!?!? So, she emails me today after I emailed her, and she say's "..I just don't think you are "the one"." How great of her to make such a judgement after 3 or so hours of meeting, vs. a month or so of talking and exchanging pics. Ahhh..cripes....like Bono say's..."I've had enough of romantic love..."...
