So lots have happened since my last update. I discovered podcasts (I know it only took – 10 years?), Google Authenticator (it saved my life, man), and Time Buddy (I don’t know what time it is in Alaska right now – do you?). Oh, but you are probably wondering about the DATING part – silly me.

I have been writing with Mr. X since we last talked and it has been really nice. He has a dog, y’all! Anyone with a dog is cool in my book. We talk about all sorts of stuff like craft beer, traveling, the Azalea Festival, mowing the yard (fingers crossed this works out and he can do my mowing – fingers crossed! Because I think each time I mow the lawn it takes a little something from me. [not too dramatic on my part]), TV shows, you know – the usual.

The fun part came last night when all he sent was his phone number and a good old fashioned smiley face. Well, I thought – I can do better than that. Who wants to talk when you can meet in person? So I sent back to him – and I swear this is what I sent; “So I’m guessing that’s a slight push in the direction to call you? I counter with. Starbucks. 6:00 pm. Mayfaire. Thursday.”

So, I guess we will have to see what he thinks about my counter offer.
