Does Dating Suck or Rock?

True Story

So we all are out there and here trying to make a connection. Am I wrong here? I don't think so. I know I am. ....looking, not wrong. Whether its just a quick hump physical connection or something more, we are all in search of it. Maybe we don't even know what it is we are specifically searching for, but we are supposed to be smart enough to know when we do find 'it'.

All I know is you should try to hang on to the good shit and connections and people you meet because we are indeed one fucked up lot here on earth. So if you can find the freaks that fit your freaks, then do NOT freak out. Embrace and nourish cause really good shit is so rare. (Forest Gump voice),,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.....'and thats all I know about that'.

Ok, so I connect with a person via the internet. Its how its done these days. Sad, but actually effective and a time saver in my opinion. Hes sweet and funny and complimentary and his freaks fit my freaks. Sounded like fun right? Ok, stay with me here. So T, I'll call him has a Masters Degree in education and got home recently from teaching in Korea. We'd discussed IQ in a random conversation and though he was well even beyond the limits of being a card carrying Member Of MENSA, he was not. He was taking mass trasit over to my part of town. The train to get here runs East to West and is about 30? miles long. I told him where I lived etc and Id meet him at the end of the line where I live and pick him up. Fine. You still with me? So as I see the 2 different timed trains come to my East end and no T, I had that weird instinct thing ding inside me. 4 seconds later T calls to tell me he accidently took the train to the complete wrong end of town and was out there in West land, at the end of the line. So I said, in the best smart ass tone I could muster, "So hows that extremely high IQ thing workin out for ya". I had to laugh because shit happens and there positively has to be some zinger in every first date right?

It's getting kind of late and I was hemming and hawing about him turning around in the correct compass direction of true East. It was going to take over an hour and I was hungry as hell and he was supposed to take me to dinner. Hmm, what to do? To aid in my decision, I hear T on the cell phone say "Ok now", and I hear a bunch of people say in unison "Give him another chance!" Huh? I said, "what was that". T said he told a bunch of strangers on the train that he was a total idiot and took the train in the complete wrong direction to see this hot chick for a first date. He asked them to wait for his signal and then they would all say "give him another chance". How fuckin adorable is that? And FUNNY, you should have heard the people on the train. Magellen he was not. True. Buy hey, any guy that can publicly compromise his dignity with humor to make me laugh and not want to bitch slap him sure has his 2nd date chance. Damn. Way cool.

So we did meet and it was fun. Some people are just worth that 2nd chance. Though he did inform me at dinner that.... No, I could NOT have the added cost and addition of a bisquit and gravy because thats how it starts. First the chick fandangles a $1.99 side menu item out of you and the next thing you know she's screamin for a Ford Excursion in the driveway. I laughed so hard the people in the restuarant thought I was having a seizure. Sometimes boys are fun and adorable and I do not want to throw rocks at them like I usually do.

So just relax guys and gals and lighten up. Dating is always at the very least, uhm...entertaining.

So. Does dating suck or rock?
