lol, just kidding. I was off for maybe, I dont know, 8 months? But i went back on - Oh, btw, LB is done i think. Long story, well, not that long ... sort of phased out over the past 5-6 weeks or so. I am assuming he has someone in his life. For now anyway. If he wants to come back when he is done, Im more than happy to have him. ;) But i wont be the "other" woman or anything. I think he attempted that last week, I turned him down. My girlfriend cracked me up & said "Shoot, you closed THAT cookie jar?" rofl .... ANYway - so i rejoined Match. Not b/c LB is MIA, just b/c I HATE EHARMONY!


Apparently my profile had still been up b/c when i re-opened, i had some recent messages & winks. & one wink was a dream come true for my love of travel. Great looking, incredibly educated & well travelled - I mean, has been EVERYwhere ... here is a bit of his profile:


my job: A science writer, investigative reporter, documentary television producer and now I am director of investigations, I am the director of investigaions of a Boston law firm, uncovering corporate fraud, and I teach journalism at Emerson.


my education: I studied journalism in college, specifically science writing, and during my freshman year I had the chance to cross the Indian Ocean with Woods Hole aboard a research ship that went from Mombassa, Kenya to Perth in Australia


favorite hot spots: I've explored Egypt's pyramids and Angkor Wat's temples in Cambodia, fished on the Mekong River, photograped religious rites in Bali and driven from Marakesh to the desert. I love Italy, especially Capri and the Amalfi coast.


I cant believe he is so familair w/ Kenya. & loves Italy like I do! & his fav movie is "Out of Africa" & thats MINE! :)

He sounds really nice Rebecca!
I'd be nervous about a beach date to start with too. Maybe suggest something instead .....

I am with you on the beach date! UGH! And the wraps and cover ups look down right silly to me so...I prefer dates where I can get into flattering clothes! Maybe he will ask you on a fun non beach date soon!


Good luck!

You are so hilarious with this post title - how fun!! But I agree about the beach date - I would not want one of those either. UGH.

His profile sounds very interesting - keep us posted!

"I've explored Egypt's pyramids and Angkor Wat's temples in Cambodia, fished on the Mekong River, photograped religious rites in Bali and driven from Marakesh to the desert. I love Italy, especially Capri and the Amalfi coast."

THAT is like WOW - would love to talk to him and see his pix - that will be so much fun for you!!

Well, I like him already because he is 51 with a 4 yr old! LOL!
So why does beach date automatically mean swimsuit? I'd go in a breezy dress with flip flops and suggest meeting at some boardwalk area for the usual light beverage- iced coffee?

And yeah, Looney, I do not do 2 piece suits anymore as I have stretch marks to my navel. They really show up with my olive complexion, too. No way am I doing a meet and greet in a swimsuit.
