ON paper

I got an email from a guy who lives close by. His profile is nice. He lives like 5 miles from here. So I wrote back saying I liked his profile and hope to hear more. Then he writes a LONG letter back telling me about himself. I could tell it was well thought out - he mentions his values, where he grew up and what he likes to do for fun and to stay in shape. I liked what he wrote. So I wrote back a lot of the same. I made it clear that I am a girl that likes to be outdoors hiking, camping, white water rafting - get messy - stay fit!! But I did mention I have traveled to Europe and do like that sort of thing as well. I also mentioned I am doing an Ironman. He has it all upfront and must like it because there is another email this morning.

So, he has my digits and he is going to call a little later. Will keep you posted. It is off to a good start, but we need to meet in person or that is all for naught. I will push for that sooner rather than later because I do believe that is essential for online dating.

Okay - time to swim!! Although I did almost swim a bit early - one of the dogs chased a huge frog/toad into the pool and then he almost fell in trying to catch it. So I had to run in the dark in my PJs without glasses to get the net and catch the frog and heave it over the fence. A mom's work is never done!!

I'm still laughing at the frog story- it was exactly something that would happen around here!


The paper guy sounds good so far- I hope the phone call comes when expected and goes well.


Keep us posted!

Yes - he did say he is looking for a serious relationship. What he wrote was centered around things in my profile - it was "on topic" so to speak - so I thought that was good. I am quite sure he will call later today so as soon as he does I will come back and tell you guys.
