Date: February 2006
How we met: Navy Man was in one of my classes last term (Sept-Dec). My program is kind of clique-y, so I didn't see too much of him, except for at the campus bar a couple of times. He then joined my program to simultaneously earn two Masters' Degrees, entering the class a year behind mine.
Previous flirtations:
We flirted a bit at the campus bar, singing some karaoke together. My program ...
The First Date Chick's stories:
Date: September 2005 (yeah, I missed this one)
How we met: Match.com
Previous flirtations: Emails and phone. The best part of the phone conversation is that you may notice this was immediately following my final breakup with CPGH. I therefore was hoping for a Jewish man, although the Optometrist's description on Match said "no religion." I only knew his first name, as his email address was just his initials. Therefore, when I called his ...
Date: December 2005
How we met: At my local pub. I don't pay for drinks there, and was in rare form after completing my term at school. Lots of stupid stories from that night, with the result being I end up meeting Drunk Dialer.
Previous flirtations: Email and phone. The phone conversations included one in which I was driving and about to leave a message on his voicemail. Me being me, I totally forgot I ...
Date: January 2006
How we met: We played softball together, but never really hung out. At my friend's birthday party, the two of us got to talking. He had thought I was 23 or 24 (he's 31), and I had thought he was kind of a mimbo. We found out we had both been wrong.
Previous flirtations: Phone and emails. Oh yeah, and this is one of those dates where we put the cart before ...
Date: November 2005
How we met: Set up by family friends

Date: February 2006
How we met: Please see prior entry.
Previous flirtations: Tried physical therapy this past summer. Went back to the doctor in December, had MRI in January. No, I'm not kidding.
What we did:
Yeah, I had an MRI in January. I had to sit still for 35 minutes so they could take pictures of the toe that "I hurt dancing."
Actually, the funny part about that is when my doctor reviewed ...
Date: November 2005
How we met: Kindly refer to my previous entry on this boy.
Previous flirtations:
Hot Friend and I kept in contact through a mutual acquaintance (ironically not (Somebody)). We would see one another out, and there was a delicious tension. He had started dating a much younger girl, and they broke up about a month or two before my way belated housewarming party, which is where Hot Friend and I renewed our ...
Date: November 2005
How we met: Remember my friend who set me up with My Professor? Well, she sent another Jew my way.
Previous flirtations: Emailed for about six weeks
What we did:
The Scout's job was very busy, so it took us about six weeks from being introduced to setting up a date. In that time, I got to know quite a bit about my Scout. He had a great sense of ...
Date: November 2005
How we met: Damn you, JDate
Previous flirtations: The usual
What we did:
The Lisping Actor gained favor right off the bat by allowing me to help select a place. We chose a brewery about halfway between our homesteads. I walked in, and he walked in a few seconds behind me.
We sat down at a table, and the Lisping Actor started looking at the menu. Why do these boys always agree ...
Date: Labor Day Weekend, September 2005
How we met: It's CPGH
Previous flirtations: I'd say so. Over five years' worth.
What we did:
I have had a few questions about what happened with me and CPGH. When I started this blog, I honestly thought it was a possibility that it would close with an engagement to him. Turns out I was wrong.
CPGH flew me in to a friend's wedding in Pittsburgh, where we ...
Date: October 2005
How we met: JDate
Previous flirtations: Emails, phone calls
What we did:
The Short Drunk Guy picked the place. He picked one right by his apartment, as he does not have a car. I was quite tempted to tell him that there are these crazy vehicles that run underground (i.e. the T), but didn't want to get into it. I have tried to convince myself that when a guy chooses a ...
Date: Halloween, 2005
How we met: I met the Loser on JDate. His friend doesn't have time to be on it, but the Loser thought we would get along, so he set us up.

What we did:
Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday. On this Halloween, I dressed as Wonder Woman and went out with the ...

What we did:
The LA Guy and I planned to meet up in the North End for a drink. (For those not familiar with Boston, the North End is replete with "cute little Italian places." Yay!) I was a little apprehensive about this date, as LA Guy was coming on a bit strong. He had taken ...
I will be on vacation through Sunday. I will try to have an entry up for Tuesday, Wednesday at the latest. Yay, vacation!
