The perfect guy revisited

I was thinking about this post wherein I built the perfect guy. I realized I left off an important characteristic.
The perfect guy would have a great sense of humor like Patrick, aka #2.

Another update

I really should start writing more regularly. *Sigh*

Ok, so a couple of weeks ago, I posted a personals ad on craigslist. Weeded out the weirdos and one-line writers and was left with two prospects. Hey, now that I think about it, they have the same initials. Hunh.

Here's what happened: #1 turned out to be a Bore. When he talked, it was like dry reporting. He had little-to-no sense of humor, and he droned on and on about any topic. It didn't matter if I already knew about what he was talking about or had anything to contribute. I hardly got a word in edgewise. He called me daily for a week. I screened the calls a couple of times. We made plans to meet at a bar here in town. I was going to go along with it on the off chance that he would be different in person. Lass was going to make me stick to it as a punishment for other misdeeds, but then my sister said I shouldn't go because he sounded like a nutcase to her, so I wrote him an email and canceled. End of Bore.

#2 was fun. He has a fantastic sense of humor. We talked on the phone and wrote emails and had plans to meet on a Saturday. Just my luck, I got some kind of weird eye ailment and looked like someone punched me. I had to cancel. We ended up meeting later that week and had a great time. We saw the SRV statue and went to some bars. Some hijinks ensued at his place that I won't go into in mixed company. We continued to talk and such, had some laughs. My hairdresser is not too far from where he lives, so he invited me over after I finished my appointment. We talked and played Rockband. We went to see fireworks yesterday, and I don't quite know what went wrong, but something did. I think it's mutual, but I'm not really sure at this point. I don't really care if we see each other again, but I don't know if he feels the same way. I would assume so.

Now I'm debating posting again and having more dates or just forgetting the whole thing. It was nice getting out of the house and actually doing stuff.
