Heres an update...get ready....

Ok so here goes...I just got home from a "meeting" date...His name was Wade, he is six foot one, baldish white dude, with one of those off color, dark around the outside edge, off center, wrong sized caps right in the front of his mouth and as if it couldn't get worse...he had buck teeth so you can't help but stare right at his K-mart special cosmetic ( if you could call it that) dentistry work.He was wearing some kind of tennis shoes that I have never heard of...not clean either...a members only jacket, gray in color. One ring on his pinky finger, and a shiny no-name watch. He came into Starbucks and acted like he had never been in one. He walked up and shook my hand...smiled...and it was over. I heard nothing else this man had to say. Well, lets put it like this, I heard enough to know this dude was a slacker. I am completely superficial I KNOW!!! But dang dude??? Come on!! People, seriously teeth are huge for me. So maybe I was trying to look a little deeper so I let this torture go on for about 30 minutes, knowing full well that this is a guy I would not have even danced with at Red River. In this 30 minutes of hell on earth, I learned that Wade is currently unemployed and is filling out applications at Home Depot, Linens and Things, and Academy Sports and Outdoors...his hopes are really set on Academy because he loves sports!!! Well,I hope he gets his dream job. Also in the first 30 minutes I heard 3 cuss words, little ones but still. I gave him a little hug and I was on my way, smelling like his cheap cologne... so gross... I was just like dude why are you even dating? What do people think they have to offer? Are they delusional? Am I? I think I bring alot to the table...I can cook, I have a career that I have been working at for 14 years, stable, no kids, nice teeth. I don't know, I am just thinking out loud here...I think I will remove my profile for a while. Just not even interested at this point. Also since I have updated last lets see... my friend Hwa got married, it was very sweet. We had a good Christmas at Andreas moms place...food was amazing. My diet is completely off until the first of the year..we are doing this thing where everyone who wants to can put in 100.00 in the pot and whoever loses the most wieght but June 2nd gets the pot. So far we have about 7 or 8 people involved.I will still be doing Weight Watchers Core program.. This is going to be great!! Anyway I will try to update more often. Love yall. Lisa

Adventures in Dating

So, with the dating pool at my church completely dried out and beginning to crack, I have resorted to the Internet dating OCEAN. I signed up for a couple of different websites and on each profile I explicitly asked to only be contacted by Christian men. Well, apparently that is like a beacon for anyone other than a Christian...but all say they are or at least believe in God..right. So I made up my mind that I would just go out with these other guys anyway and "practice dating" with them, against Andreas advice...so off I go. Date #1 East Indian man who "claimed" to be 38 but when he read his menu he pulled out the bifocals, he also "claimed" on his profile to be 5'10" tall, I am 5'10" and he barely came up to my chin and I was in flats... uh I think not! The date went fine but I knew right away I was not interested so lets eat right? When dinner was over the man turned into an octopus and tried to stick his tongue down my throat...I pushed him away and said he was GROSS, I am pretty sure he understood because he ran away with a hurt look on his face. I DON'T CARE..He was nasty. EWWW. So on to date #2 Jewboy...He said he was a Messianic Jew...uh I think not...Just plain ol' JEW. No Jesus just Jew. Already looking at him sideways, I was on the lookout for other lies...we go to Rainforrest cafe' and folks we have a talker!! He talked and talked for what seemed like forever about NOTHING..well I shouldn't say nothing I am sure that some women would be very impressed with his winning first place in the 06' bellyflop contest in Ennis Texas. But not I. Blah blah blah. He then said "I got tickets to the Stars game for Friday and it will be late when the game is over...do you think I could SLEEP ON YOUR COUCH so I wouldn't have to drive home". I said "HEll NO"...As if that wasn't bad enough the bill comes and I said thank you for dinner, I offered to get the tip,I don't know what he heard because he closed the little black bill cover thingy and as he slid it across the table in my direction he said "I will let you look at it and let you be the judge of what you want to contribute". I looked at the unopened little black bill cover thingy for a second and with my index finger I pushed it back across the table, raised my eyebrows and said "I will get the tip". I was thinking don't make me act a fool up in here. He dropped it. And I thought he IS Jewish. I know it is a stereotype, but it is for a REASON!! After dinner we walked around the mall and I had my purse on one arm and I tried to keep it on the same side as he was at all times. Because he kept trying to hold my hand..I was like " I just met you dude, seriously?" He kept on getting grabby with the hand. So I bought something. AH HA. Now I had a purse in one hand and a bag in the other. No hand holding now. I know this next part is going to sound really bad, but hey, I never claimed to be perfect...so I wanted to find out how cheap this guy really is..so I go to Neimans to try on some shoes..yep Prada,Fendi,Gucci,Monolos, as shallow as it is I love labels...I was trying to see how much of an issue he would have with the cost of these shoes...needless to say it was a big problem.He wanted to go to PAYLESS SHOESOURCE... Elcheapo..for sure. After another comment on my anatomy and countless other inappropriate incidents, I was ready to go. I left him with a hug and he said " mmmm...love handles" ...like mmmm, campbells soup...gross huh? I waited till he called me later that evening and I told him EVERYTHING he did wrong and that it was OVA. I have been on more "normal" dates, but I hope you have enjoyed these... I will keep you posted on some of the best ones. Love you long time....Lisa

Here are some things hat have been going on...I have been dating..just dating, don't get too excited. No one I would even consider "blog worthy". I have been like uber busy at the salon...Praise God!

Yipee. Anyway that is about it. I like the mundane. Really I do. I love yall. ...Lisa
