Work and Play

Again, I find myself working on the weekend. The good news is that this will end come the new year (promise) as it's the final push on a project I got dumped. Next time it will be different (honest) and I do love what I'm doing.



Plus, having taken a breather from the whole online dating thing, I've jumped back in and have a new batch of boys. I'm starting to line them up for the new year - plus still haven't been able to get together with Doug from round 1, but finished his book - well, one by the same author, which was really a fun, quick read - it's called Them: Adventures with Extremists by Jon Ronson.



I feel like last time was a test run. I've thrown out the whole open minded attitude - and am being a bit more selective, kind of. There are two that I am hopeful about the others should just be fun. So, with out further ado, here's the roster:



Thomas: He has fun photographs and really seems to have a fun personality. He seems to have a fairly similiar background/interests which I'm starting to realize makes a difference. He's in marketing/advertising and talked about laughter (plus) "Did you know the average child laughs 410 times per day and the average adult 11 (true stats based on a study done by Crayola - I worked there for several years)..." Sounds goods.



Chris:

An Industrial Designer - again similar back grounds (plus). Seems like a fun and laid back guy. Had a good book listed (plus): The Immortal Class about a bike messenger and his life in Chicago. And lives in Cambridge - another plus.

Stephen:

He's from Scotland - enough said. Ok, so I love the scottish accent, plus he works with children with TBI so that always gets points. The thing is he is 6'8". Now, I'm bad with measurements, but I know my brother is 6'4" (I think) and he's pretty tall in my book, so I can't imagine how tall this guy is - only one way to find out.

Tim:

This one is for the parents (jk) - he's a struggling musician, working as a waiter (I think). He seems a bit young for me even though he is only a year younger (more of a newer soul I guess). But has a lot of good energy and positive outlook - a good person to get to know.





So that's it for now. A fun break from work to read responses and profiles.
