Speed Dating R Us

On Tuesday (I think) my buddy Penny n' I went Speed Dating at the Urban Wine Co. downtown. I must say this was a first for me and thought it would be VERY entertaining. Entertaining, it was! First, you must know that a good portion of the guys there were cat owners. I have nothing against cats, or the single men in their thirties that own them; I just think it is weird. It is weird when a guy you are 'speed' dating chooses this as one of the important things in his life that he must share with you. Agreed? If I ever speed date again, I think I should take a handful of these key chains with me. "Real Men Love Cats"...I just don't like real men apparently. lol Bring on the 'fake' men that drink beer, and like puppies!

When Penny asked cat guy #3 how he liked to spend his weekend evenings, he replied with 'cat burritos'...yes I said cat burritos. Cat guys #3 proceeded to explain how he doesn't go out, but usually just wraps his cat up in a blanket like a burrito, at which point if he didn't do it fast enough then Muffy, his cat, would swat him with her paw.

The turn out for the event was pretty decent, I suppose. There were a total of thirteen guys, the conversations felt somewhat like awkward job interviews, at which point I would just ask a random question. Randomosity entertains me, what can I say? They give you a list of the guys there and you are supposed to jot down a fact or two about them to give you something to remember him by. I thought you'd be entertained by my list, so I am posting it!
