The list

So as we all know, my roomie is in a land far, far away for the summer. It sucks. I miss seeing her, talking to her and just having her presence in my life. It really sucks. I've been sick and that sucks too. I know if she were home she'd make me potato soup. That never sucks. I've had various men make me offers to bring me food and stuff to make me feel better. But none of their food will ever be as good as her soup. I know this!

I was trying to tell her about who offered me what and she was confused. Couldn't remember which guy was which. So here's the list so she can keep 'em straight.

I'm running down the road trying to loosen my load I've got seven men on my mind, Four that want to own me, two that want to stone me, one says he's a friend of mine.... Funny thing is the song kind of fits!

List for C2. Keep in a safe place!!!!

The genius: PhD. Likes wine, hiking and white water kayaking. Is divorced with 2 kids. Has a small apartment with no stove. Pays wife alimony to keep house for kids. Was a Mormon and then a Quaker. Funny, intelligent, a bit dorky. Not sure of chemistry there. Chicken soup email.

Number 5: Met him on my birthday. Works for Parks. Lives in OM. Knows all the hikes in the area. Vegetarian. never been married. He is a bit odd and not sure I feel like seeing him any more. He's dependable, though.

PR guy: met him for first time - drinks at GT last week. Fun evening - he didn't mind the trivia game going on and seemed to enjoy the geekiness. Divorced with 13 year old son. In public relations but writes not clearly! Tall and cute. I think he drinks too much, though. He loves my calves. Texts me and keeps in touch. Lives too far away for any real relationship, IMO. He is entertaining, though.

Frenchie: His family is French and he lived in Nepal for awhile. Is divorced from a Nepalese woman who lives in the states. Has a teenage daughter. Has been in France/Canada for the past month. Should be back on Friday. I like him best so far...but I"m guessing this is because I have no idea where I stand!

Vanilla: Lived further away but is moving to town where I work. Went on two or three dates. Blew him off (not really just cancelled claiming malaise) on fourth date (to go see a movie I wasn't into) to go out with La Tres Amigas. He never called again. Correction: he called me again but never left a message.

Health Consultant: Engineer who is starting his own fitness consulting business. Real food freak. Sent email that I thought was blow off and he insisted wasn't but I'm pretty sure it was (he writes: I'm busy for the next month). He just wants to be friends because he claimed he needs to take it slow, shouldn't have put himself out there and he's just not ready for a relationship, etc. But he updated his profile and pictures and has been out on the dating sight. I think he is a ball-less freak. Should have just told me I'm not interested. I'm not probably going to bother with him any more.

Too new for a nickname: I meet him for the first time tomorrow. He's Asian and seems really sweet (but not that cute in his picture). Already decided we'd just be friends because we have different religious views. He's a mathematician and has been to my Alma mater to visit a friend who teaches there.

Okay, that does it. Seven guys for seven different headaches! YEt the lack of physical intimacy doesn't have me taking cold showers. What does that tell you?

I think I'm tired of dating - feeling like it's time to go into recluse mode!
