I had a fun weekend. On Saturday night I was out to dinner with my
best friend MaryAnn. We’ve known each
other since we were kids. Been through
everything together. So nothing I do out
in public embarrasses her.
I created a business card to
advertise my blog. And I pass it out any
chance I get. I put them in the folders
when I pay the bill at a restaurant.
Well on Saturday we were at Biggies on Watson (good food and fun atmosphere). So behind us was a table of people. One guy and several girls. He was telling his story about his being the “Rebound
guy”. Meaning the girls he meets they
are on the rebound and he ends up there.
Anyway I thought this was a good opportunity to give out one of my
cards. When we paid our bill I went to
his table. I said I couldn’t help but
hear his Rebound Guy story. I gave him
my card and said you have to read my online dating blog. It is funny and I think he would enjoy it. I told him I also had a you tube channel and
my interview with Channel 5. He was so
nice. He asked if I was on facebook and
I said I was. He said he would friend
me.
Anyway, if I was with my 17
year old daughter she would have been embarrassed and ran out the door without
me. LOL!! But not MaryAnn. She got a kick out of it. I couldn’t tell if he was wearing a ring or
not and if he was I do apologize. I in
no way want to come between him and his girl.
But his story made me laugh and I love sharing my card and stories with
everyone.
I am having more cards printed
up. I also order a dozen pens with my online
blog on it to pass out her and there. I
want to have a t-shirt made too so I can wear it out and be advertisement for
my blog.
I think when you are out and
you see a guy you think you’d like to get to know, you should be able to walk
up to them and talk to them. It’s the 21st
century so I believe women can make the first move. I think guys would be flattered. Guys:
What do you think?
My next post will be a list of
my tips for your online dating profiles.
I posted a couple in my earlier blogs but will put them together and add
some more. Of course, these are just my suggestions. J
Lastly for tonight, this Friday
begins the fun Fish Fry season in St. Louis.
Not sure how other cities are but the fish fries in Lent are huge
here. I want to put in a plug for the
one I work at every Friday. St. Cecilia’s
Mexican Fish Fry. Besides the usual fish
dishes they offer Chili Relleno, Cheese Quesadilla and Bean Tostada. They also have a tamale cart that goes around
while you are in line (and the lines are long).
They also have pico de gallo and the best Margarita’s (so I’m
told). All Mexican dishes are made by
the wonderful Mexican community at St. Cecilia’s. The school kids doing Mexican dancing through
the night and a strolling Mariachi band is there as well. It’s a fun time.
