Happy Sunday Everyone,
I hope you've had a great weekend. So what happened at the Match.com Stir event. For one, I had so many detours and got lost for over an hour from the time I left my hour to the time it started. It started at 6pm. I got there about 7:15pm. By this time, I didn't care how I looked, what was in there or anything.
So I walk in and there was a table to write your name and put on a name tag. Well, the name had to be a guilty pleasure. Of course I write shoes and purses. I guess it's a good conversation starter. The crowd was a good mix of men and woman. I came in, got a drink and walked around. I stood off to the side because I didn't come there with anyone (some people brought a friend). I had a long weird conversation with this guy who is a lawyer and works in the area. He starts talking about things that I really didn't have an interested in and since he asked where I lived and I live in Maryland he starts talking politics. I'm sorry, I really don't know about politics. I should get more involved in who our representatives are but I just bought my house so in a way, it didn't matter as long as they kept doing a good job that I didn't have to know who my representative was. So that made me feel stupid. I think I should read up on politics to prepare myself for conversations like that and not sound like I had a balloon head waving in the wind. Then I found out the guy is Jewish and he's 47 years old. Well, that wouldn't work out for me to say the least on either counts. For one, I'm not converting to Judaism and my age range I'm looking for is 33-40 that's a good 7years. I just want to grow old with a person together... and have something to talk about while we're around the same age. Not to be discriminatory.
So after that, I was like whew, and thought of an excuse to go back inside... I ran in to some ladies and we chatted. Well, one of them, had a date down the street at a restaurant/bar and she asked if I could go with her to meet him. I said, how far is this place she said across the street. Now, she says she doesn't drink but she sure seemed LIT. So I went with her. The guy was so cute... Kind of farm boy like, I'd date him, but he is also Jewish, Oh and so is she. The guy must didn't like her wild nature in her "soberness" and he made up some excuse and left. Said he had to get up early.
So after that she bounced to some guy at the bar who was HOTT... 40year old and looks like he should be on Greys Anatomy. salt/pepper hair and whew... well, to him (I asked) she seemed Loose... I said yeah she kind of seemed that way and she was sober. His friend he was with is engaged and so he and I were dancing so I can teach him some rhythm. lol He doesn't know he can move his hips.
So to sum it all up. The night was a bust. It was interesting. I can say I have tried the stir event. I'm sure a lot of them got numbers. All I got was the sober/lit Jewish girls number lol.
WRONG TEAM lol.
On Saturday, while in a funk, I decided I wasn't going out anywhere and was going to spend time by myself. Then some friends of mine invited me to a kickball/cookout event. So after a couple hours I finally decided to go. Can I tell you I had so much fun. With some really good people and awesome conversation. We talking about all kinds of things, in a campfire type circle and just had fun... Challenged each other and got and gave advice on being in this Christian Journey.
After that, I went to First Baptist Church of Glenarden to a Single Ministry event. That was so much fun. Ran into an old High School friend and just met some good people. Played kickball, volley ball and had some good food.
Come home feeling fulfilled and glad I went out.
So to sum up the weekend. It was interesting and fun and I can't wait to do other events... Probably not with Match but with FBCG because they would be more on the same level of what I'm trying to do and be... and continue to hang out with the other group I was with.
Until next time...
