Coffee date #2!

So, coffee date number 2 was this evening and it was better than coffee date #1. I hope this is a pattern that every time I meet someone new they will keep getting better. Don't get me wrong, he was very nice, looked like his picture from his profile, and you could tell he really loves his kids! But......I think he might be a little OCD! He fidgeted the whole time and proceeded to tell me how tidy he is, even with 3 young boys. (Me, not so much!) Now don't get me wrong, tidy is not bad, some of my very best friends are very tidy, (you know who you are) but to be OCD about it, No! I am not a slob or anything, but if there is a little clutter around and I have to choose between sleep and cleaning up, sleep wins!

I actually did think he was going to stand me up because he was about 15 minutes late and with my luck lately, I was sure he was a no show. The whole online dating thing is just not moving too quickly. Again, I am catching the eye of men who are a little long in the tooth for me! I am probably being too picky! I know it, but I am not comfortable dating someone younger than me and I don't want them to be too old, the problem is that men my age want to date younger girls (ok, I know that is a generalization, but this is my blog so I can generalize however I want) who are slender, in shape and with no baggage! Good luck buddy there is no such thing!

Ok, back to date number 2, he was just OK. I was sitting across from him thinking.....Do I want to be kissed by this guy and I could honestly answer....no, I don't think so! One thing really funny about him is that he is less outdoorsy than I am and if you know me at all that is pretty bad! When it came to the topic of being outside and doing outside things he was prissy, for lack of a better word. Is there something wrong with me wanting a man who doesn't mind being a little dirty, knows how to use a hammer, and knows how to kiss really good? Am I asking for too much, really?!

I GUESS SO! Silly me!

So my solution lately is working out to get rid of my frustrations. It seems to be working! Now, I am not hitting the gym or running miles and miles, but instead I bought a Wii fit, and I love it! It was my way of working out and not having to worry about what I was going to do with my little one! So after she goes to bed and I get everything ready for the next day I exercise for about an hour every night and then I am too tired to feel lonely and frustrated. It is working.....I haven't lost a pound, but my pent up frustrations are getting worked out with step aerobics and boxing! At this rate I should be in the greatest shape of my life by next year!
