Hmm, the archives aren't really working...or are they? I like having my old posts available.

Yesterday I felt like a douche bag, if those truly exist. I've never douched, nor do I ever plan on attempting it.

But before I go on...

Last night I want to that seminar. It was entertaining, but everytime I am in a room with a bunch of tech writers, I just get this feeling of pretentiousness...Like "hey, I am a tech writer and I am great!" And then I start wondering if I want to continue being one. I feel really behind in the times when it comes to the latest tools. 

Douchiness...

Did I write about being an Internet dater? I usually go through a cycle of some sort. I sign up at a site, am somewhat active for 2-4 weeks, and then I remove myself. I stay away for several months. My friends keep reminding me "didn't you say no more Internet men again?" I get bored of it, and I end up really hating it. Some sites are really good for meeting people. After I sign up, I usually end up conversing with several people (or several and a few more...). They take up a lot of time, and then I get resentful!! Then I end up seeing someone for a while.

Anyway, with my latest experience, I have been talking to a handful of guys, and I've been on a few dates. Special K's advice to me was, "stop dating the ones you're not interested in!" I didn't think there that many guys on the go. But I tend to serially date guys who have an interest in me until there is one that I really like and who likes me too. Then, and only if then, if we've talked about not seeing other people will I stop.

I never assume a guy is seeing only me, but I think sometimes guys just make that assumption. It's just a feeling I get, and then I feel all dishonest when I date. But if I am not seeing someone exclusively, I don't owe them anything.
