Update

So, I just wanted to assure everyone that my crabbiness did not lead to an arrest the other day. Good news because I am far to pretty for prison! :)

Antonio turned out to be a total Nigerian scammer. I am pretty proud of myself though. I traced his IP address to Nigeria and turned the tables on him. I told him that while I did think that yes, God did mean for us to be together I found out I was pregnant by my ex boyfriend and we thought it best for the baby to get married. This threw his whole plan into hyperdrive and he immediately asked me for $3o00 to get some shipment threw customs (are women really that stupid?). I have ignored him ever since I told him we were headed to Vegas to get married and after only a few more feeble attempts to get money he has left me alone. Lesson learned! No good relationship can possibly come from the internet. I do know that there are marriages that have started online but they have to be the exception.

Moral of this post? I am still single and still crabby! Heaven help us all.

Life Lesson

I learned a little something about myself today. I am way too old to be pulling all nighters!!! The lame part about last nights experiment is that it happened merely by chance and not because I was doing anything spectacular. I started out watching a cheesy BBC period romance (and of course crying) and from there it was all down hill. I did not get a single minute of sleep last night and boy does it show. I am super CRABBY!!! Today would not be the day to mess with me. Shoot, it wouldn't even really be the day to look at me. Demon, as I fondly refer to the child I babysit, elbowed me in the eye this morning and it is rapidly swelling. When it rains it pours I suppose.

I remember the carefree days of college where all nighters were capped by a sense of euphoria and accomplishment. Now I just want to punch someone in the face. Stay tuned to see if I am arrested for assault.

Sunday

Not much going on in my life. I am still woefully unemployed but thanks to President Obama I will once again be receiving unemployment benefits. From a political stand point this drives me insane. Our country is in so much debt I don't think we ever see the end but from a personal stand point this is a huge blessing. I never thought I would be unemployed for 14 months. Lest anyone think I am not looking for a job I should say I have applied for anything and everything out there. I am either "over-qualified" or 1 of over 100 applicants for the jobs in my field. INSANE!!!

On another note, approximately 1 year ago I decided to use all my free time to explore my personal life. I signed up for a 6 month membership to eHarmony and thought I would give the world of online dating a try. What a joke! The only guys that showed any interest in me were con artists from Nigeria. I so wish I was joking right now but I am so not! What is it about me? So when my membership expired I let it. Eharmony knows how to do business though and they keep sending me matched. Jerks!!! Well, just this weekend I have started talking to a seemingly nice guy from Italy. I say seemingly because I am waiting for his creepiness to come out. What can I say? I am a little skeptical of this whole online thing. In the meantime, bring it on Antonio. You seem like a nice guy. :)
