#6. A Post a Day...

I never plan to write every day. Every day writing is for journals, not blogs. Blogs are exhibitionist, journals aren't read until you die so no one else knows how selfish, shallow, and hedonistic you really are.
Still, I'm writing daily now. Well, I wrote yesterday. And being an exhibitionist, I will write about a first date I just had. The date will likely not call, as is my pattern of first dates, so he will never know what I say about him. That said, he could read this because it would be nice. He IS nice. Not nice in a generic, I don't know what else to say about him but NICE, like what exactly is wrong with him??
Normal, nice men are not single at 30 and they certainly aren't being set up with total strangers so there must be something wrong with him. Luckily, we talked extensively and found out we have some mutual friends so I was able to call one of them on my way home to inquire- What is wrong with him?? Amanda, my wonderful friend, suprised to hear I was out with her friend said, "Nothing, in fact we've all had crushes on this guy." Huh?
Now I'm on the hunt. I'm a stalker- what is WRONG with him? There must be something. Amanda and friends were all once attractive, smart, interesting and single. Now they are all of those things but single and yet no one dated this man with no flaws? There must be a reason. Someone must share with me. Perhaps he bites his toenails. Or he's a Republican. He is from Texas, there's a clue. But he's from Austin, which is really a succession from the Great Nation of W. WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIM??
We talked about food, friends,families, and Walmart. What else is there, really? He did not know that Walmart is evil, but he does know that George W is so that's OK.
There must be something, besides that he is not Mark Mulder. He played Division 3 basketball in college. I guessed Div. 2, he was insulted that I would not have guessed 1. Oops.
I forgot to thank him for dinner. What an ass. He paid the bill while I was in the bathroom so I never even got to offer to help out. Now I've forgotten to even THANK him for a very nice meal. And he is leaving town for the next 5 days. I wonder if he will call. I'm not holding my breath.
If he doesn't call, I will KNOW what is wrong with him. If he does, I'll still be left to wonder...
