Dry Spell

Okayyyyy,...well things are finally starting to settle down.....by mid September I should be back in regular routine.....there is much news to share,..but more than I can here, right now,....but needless to say,..its all big.......just not on the love life front!
In fact I have all but gotten rid of all potnential dates and/or booty calls.....I need to focus ona few things right now,..so its better that I am single right now,..this is why I haven't been posting...nothing to say really......I did kind of accidentally mix it up with Mermaid and a new one we'll call "Press",..but it seems I blew both of them.....
Mermaid was kind of odd,..very hot,...very nice,..and we connected well email,..but hen I asked to call her she pretty much put me off....this is usually because they are married or they are involved....errr at least that has been my experience......finally I called Mermaid on the carpet and said,..look we have talked for a month via email...can I call you or not.....and she pretty much didn't answer me on this question.....yet I was still getting and sending EPIC emails,..that would have only been a 5 minute conversation but took me about 14 days to type.......anyway......I finally said,..."look....its time we talk,..if you don't like what is said or how I am fine at least we both know....if you do then we can go from there"....I got an email back that she still wasn't ready,..since she had just gotten out of a relationship and BLAH BLAH BLAH...to me it means NOT INTERESTED.......so I told her look,..just to prove I am a gentleman,..I have had your home phone for three weeks and have not called you.......(it was a simple trip to the white pages online to get it byt he way) WE had been emailing on regular email and NOT MySpace, her email contained her full name,..I looked it up.....so I told her this and she got mad,..really mad! Then asked how I had gotten it.....and I told her......I went out of town that weekend,..and when I came home I got the "WE shouldn't talk anymore and I deleted my MySpace account" WTF?
First,....my bad for telling her agreed!
But truth is, that that is exactly how I found out about Nascar and her hangups and divorce,..and Thatgirls restraining order...I mean lets face it,...I DO DO public records search on people I meet ont he net too,..and I recommend women do as well...but Mermaid was really put off by this apparently,..eventhjough I only did a simple white pages check....SEE I HATE DATING.......and it was no different then her and I meeting in a bar and I look up her phone number since I had her name and either forgot her number or couldn't remember it.....Oh well my guess is that she DID have soemthing to hide.....NASCAR did a paid full on background check on me.....I mean if empooyers can do it,..why shouldn't potential mates..I am not offended by it at all......but then I guess women are women and thus can get mad at whatever...and I didn't even do a background check on her I simply looked up her phone number and told her I did.....
Oh well.....

The new one Press and i hit it off and MySpace pretty quick and emailed back and forth over a week.....I called her...I apparently said something she didn't like or something.....now she is pretty much ignoring me...i have no idea what,..we talked for almost an hour.....both of these were accidental,..so I never expected anything to come of either and I am NOT on MYSpace for that,..but.....things happen.....oh well back to the drawing board again......

Either way things will settle down ina few weeks and I can get back into this dating game with more experience and more $$$.....plus I started a diet to get back in shape...all the meeting and late hours i have kept recently have taken their toll...ever since vegas....I have been eating at restarants and fast food...and that makes my ASS very fat...........soooo back into dating mode...slim trim,...and full wallet......seems to be the only way to meet women....okay thats all for now..I will post my normal stuff soon,..be patient,..there truly has been nothing to tell.....

Snap Judgements

From the UPI.........I will probably go to jail for copyright violations......but..............Whatever!


NewsTrack - Science
Study: We're hard-wired for snap judgments

PRINCETON, N.J., Aug. 22 (UPI) -- A U.S. psychologist says we might not be able to tell a book from its cover, but we can decide if a person is attractive in only a tenth of a second.

Princeton University psychologist Alex Todorov says people respond intuitively to faces so rapidly our minds may not have time to influence the reaction -- and our intuitions about attraction and trust are among those we form the fastest.

"The link between facial features and character may be tenuous at best, but that doesn't stop our minds from sizing other people up at a glance," said Todorov, an assistant professor of psychology. "We decide very quickly whether a person possesses many of the traits we feel are important, such as likability and competence, even though we have not exchanged a single word with them. It appears we are hard-wired to draw these inferences in a fast, unreflective way."

Todorov and co-author Janine Willis, a student researcher who graduated from Princeton in 2005, used timed experiments and found snap judgments on character are often formed with insufficient time for rational thought.

The research appears in the July issue of the journal Psychological Science.

The last paragraphs really hits home.....how much time is enough for rational thought???? Man I need a new watch!

Sorry WAAAAAY TOOO BUSY!

Okay sorry folks,...I have been getting hell for not updating,.....but I have a great excuse....First I stopped dating for the time being,...no choice,...no time.....ever since I began to move my life has been upside down,....I don't have the time or patience to deal witht he dating GAMES right now,...but of course,...being the fool I am will jump right back in head first as soon as the dust clears.....

Since my last post I have sold part of my business and brought on a partner,..so I have been dealing with all of those legalities and potential problems s well as reorganizing the company a bit....
Plus the move,....and taking care of family and friendly obligations....this has kept me more than busy and the potential prospects have dried up for the most part....

Mermaid has been deleted............I think after a month of daily emails it is not out of the question to ask to call....or have a phone conversation................anyone who thinks that carries too much weight ( a phone call that is) is probably married or in a relationship......oh well....more to the story,..but not worth the time.....no biggie..........

"IF" has popped back up but after the check in calls I have been getting from her it appears more to see if I am still interested while she goes and does whatever she goes and does.....really strange..........................

Thatgirl has been popping up over and over,.....at least we settled the whole crop of bullshit that stemmed from being in a relationship with her,..mostly her absolute craziness.....she may still be crazy,..but she ain't my crazy!!!!

Cubana,....had been emailing and calling me since her hubby left in June.....then when I probably needed her friendship and compassion the most,.....she became vacant.......so much for friends.....no big deal either,..she was looking for me,..not the other way around.....but then she just stopped calling...I texted her and said pretty much when she was down and out I was there and now that I need a little friendship and advice she was suddenly unavailable.......the next day I got an long email apology saying I was right and sorry and blah blah blah and that she would call me that night................a week went by and I got a text message on a Friday about going to a movie I ignored it........a week later I sent another text saying that its been great knowing her and good luck! She emailed me the next morning....."Hubby is back,...very sorry,........" WHAT THE FUCK EVER on that one too!

So those are the updates.....I am getting enough botty calls to keep me busy,..but no time for GF's right now......

In the meantime enjoy the next post pretty funny stuff! I'll be back in business in the next two months or so....the break has actually been very good for me!!!!
