I hope this isn't just ramblings.....

So I know I took a little break from blogging but I am back! So interesting story, I was feeling I was at the bottom of the barrel, men wise. There really seems to be no one in my ward they are all pretty young and I am starting to take the classes that are for my major in school and that means there are gonna be not a lot a men in there. A friend at work kept telling me to look online. I am very skeptical about that process I know who are usually on there but to appease her and since I had nothing else going I signed up. On this site you can do this kinda test thing to see what your values are and thought on all sorts of different aspects of life. Then when you look at someone’s profile can click on this box and it tells you how good of a match you are. Then you request to view their answers. I think I requested 2 or 3 and one granted my request the next day. Let’s call him…..hmm I haven’t thought about this….I think I am gonna go with Ross (from Friends). So Ross then asked if we could chat sometime so we set it up. He was cute he was impressed with the areas we agreed on and was interested in learning more. It was a nice chat and he asked for my number so we could go out but not for another week because he was going out of town. Seriously I am always waiting two weeks for these dates it is crazy. So the week of the the date he texted me and we made plans for Saturday night. He chose a restaurant that I had been wanting to try and I think is ind of obscure so that impressed me.

Meanwhile a guy at work told me he wanted to take me out he had seen me on a date with Al and I think that sparked the interest. He asked me about Al and I said oh that is over and he immediately said well I want to take you out. He asked me out for Saturday as well but that of course couldn’t work. We decided to go to dinner after going to the yoga class offered at our gym. My friend at work teased me oh another work out buddy another best friend and he was right. The date was great but he is not a member of the church and he recognized it would not work since he has no desire to convert. It is hard I want to just so from now on only members but my cousin and close friend married a convert so it can happen. I can’t just write them off.

So Saturday comes oh and I forgot to say only my sister Kristen and the woman from work knew about this date and that I had been online. My sister Chrissy guessed it and Cate was shocked when I told her but I was trying to do something different than I normally would. Normally I would have talked to everyone about the up coming date and analyzed everything. So I didn’t tell anyone. Any ways Friday he called me and we chatted just about the logistics. Saturday oh I wanted to wear this cute outfit but I had never gotten around to hand washing the stupid blouse and then I bought some new jeans and they wouldn’t button (pretty sure I was bloated) so I was not happy with my outfit choices and in the end regretted what I wore I knew it was a bit too casual but oh well. So we met at this cool pub kinda restaurant he looked so nice in his suede sports jacket and was even better looking than his pictures. I smiled all through dinner I had a great time. We talked about family and  work and friends it was great! After that we went the movies we saw True Grit which is a great movie! We really do have a lot in common when it comes to likes and dislike. He gave me a hug at my car and said that he would be in touch. He texted me Sunday and said it was good to meet me in person and he had a great time and hoped I did too. Yesterday we texted a bit and he said he hoped we would chat again soon. So this is where we are at. I was really hoping for a phone call tonight but ugh nothing.

Also this weekend a friend asked me if she could set me up with someone and another friend just gave my number to her sister in law to give to a single doctor oo la la! So there are more opportunities out there I just need to keep that in mind.

Update! I haven’t seen Al in 2 weeks I went out of town one weekend and the other weekend I was sick but he texted me something about not having seen me in a while. So I didn’t answer him. My plan was to see him later and be like oh ya I saw your text but I was on a date (which I was) but then I wasn’t at church Sunday so I felt bad…I know I am too nice so I texted him and we chatted and I had mentioned I was stressed with school and he said well I have ice cream when you need it….awww. So that is where we are…no where basically.

My focus right now is a hour and a half at the gym 5 days a week that is what I care about :)
