The Daily Show

Just returned from blood "letting" --to be tested before my annual physical next week. I don't forsee any problems, but you never know. Better safe than sorry.
The house moving project is on hold. Rain hasn't helped matters. Patience.
Without going into sordid details, the coffee date was a bummer. She was overweight, not attractive, talked too much about herself and her family, and was into astrology. I was becoming repulsed. Two hours of agony. She claimed to be a health nut, but had two mochas and some expensive chocolate thingy. (I paid, of course.)
I'm grandson sitting for the next two days, so I'll be tied up with him. No problemo. I'll do all my Aldi and "Wal-mart" shopping done this afternoon. Just the basics--milk, bread, o.j., etc.
My recent suppers have been fun--and good. Tuna casserole, veggie stir fry, and last night, a quiche.  Apple crisp for dessert. Yummy!  I'd make sombody a good "wife". LOL

If I wouldn't have to explain myself, I'd be laughing out loud about your date. Sadly, it kind of sounds like you met my SIL.

She emailed me to say she had a friend that was interested in meeting me. I'm thinking any friend of hers is nothing I want to mess with! I'll stick to bachelorhood.

maybe you should try speed dating! sorry the blind date was a bust. I have learned never to set up my friends with a date. I am so off base on matching people up that it has become a joke with everyone. The best one was when I tried to set up my step son with a nice girl. she turned out to be a lesbian.

Although I have been "set up", this was through a dating service. I just have my profile there, having never to pay a fee. The women come to me!
I think this "experiment" is over. I've been single for 12 years now, and it appears this will continue 'til I die (30 more years?).

You can come cook for me anytime. I know DH would appreciate it.

Meals on wheels? I think I'll stick to simple home style cooking.

Sorry about the bummer date.
comment by jerms on Feb 21, 2012 10:21 PM ()
No biggie. The hard part was informing her "one and done, over and out"!

Randy, you are braver than me; even in my twenties I would never go on a blind date. My favorite sandwich is tuna mixed with just mayonnaise on really fresh bread. YUM! Have you thought about posting some of your recipes on MyBloggers?
comment by gapeach on Feb 21, 2012 6:22 PM ()
I'm not brave--more like stupid! No recipes. I don't want to sound like I'm bragging. The quiche was interesting, however. I included garlic, onions, olives, rehydrated tomatoes and a little ketchup along with the "usual"--in this case, baking mix, ham, eggs, broccoli, asparagus, milk and cheese(s).
I just like messing around. Nice to hear from you, by the way!
reply by solitaire on Feb 22, 2012 11:53 AM ()
Yeah, you would make a good wife! Your food sounds good.
Sorry the date was a bummer...

I keep thinking, "what's wrong with me?" I have a lot to offer, in my opinion. Perhaps I'm too selective. But, for me, the woman has to be a perfect match. Otherwise, no dice.

Give up whomever is picking these blind dates for you....

See my reply to Fredo. And Teal, for that matter.

That was a bummer.Though about you yesterday.Mike asked me how did Randy make out.
Not sure have not heard from him yet.Oh!well I think maybe you should leave these blind date off for a while.Are you getting a good dating service.Do they profile them to tell you what they look like or this comes under discrimination.
Yes,take a short break for now.
comment by fredo on Feb 21, 2012 8:39 AM ()
It's a "selective" dating service, like for environmentalists. So, theoretically, we should all have something in common. We write out a profile. Hers was 10 times longer than mine. That should have been a clue!And, like I told my father, "nothing ventured, nothing gained". Moving on.

Does your area have any senior socials/dances you could go to? Making a connection might be easier if you could talk to prospective dates in person before asking them out.
comment by tealstar on Feb 21, 2012 7:15 AM ()
Easier said than done. I'm in (and have been) a holding pattern . My "mating" moods are cyclical.
