My summer, unfortunatley, has up to this point been an array of dentist and doctor visits. I had to see a cariologist last week to figure out why I fainted at work, and he scheduled two days of tests for me. I did the first one on Monday, a tilt table test. It's basically designed to induce fainting. If people don't faint during the test, it ( Read more... )

Well I had a coffee date with my first prospect from the online dating site tonight. It was fine, but I didn't feel any sparks and I think I wasn't great about hiding that fact. Still, he wasn't a weird guy or anything, just not right for me. There's another guy I've emailed a couple of times with who wants to talk by phone soon, so we'll see ( Read more... )

Well, I just posted a profile at an online "social dating" website. Call it a lack of anything better to do with my time. After the initial thrill of E-harmony wore off (about one month in), I got really irritated by the whole online dating process.

In addition to the TV screens on the treadmills and bikes, there are a bunch of larger screen TV's at my gym that play music videos, usually dance and pop songs that are good to exercise to. Anyway, today I got to watch the Buttons video by the Pussycat Dolls. I know it's been around for a while, but seriously, are they actually trying to pretend ( Read more... )

I went to my first Columbus Young Professionals Club event tonight. It was a new member dinner, so I didn't get to socialize much aside from the people at my table. They were very friendly, and we did briefly get to chat about the fact that the first question most people get asked once they're out of college is "What do you do?" and why we're all ( Read more... )

On Wednesday, one of my co-workers mentioned that a dance studio in town did group dance lessons on Friday nights and asked if I wanted to go. I, of course, had nothing else to do and in the spirit of establishing a social life decided to give it a shot. I've never been to a dance class before, so I had no idea what to expect ( Read more... )
