Last night, I had a drink with High Powered Married Couple. While HPMC Wife and I chatted about our high school friends, HPMC Husband read my blog on his blackberry. After reading my blog, HPMC Husband suggested that I incorporate more personal dirt (or "soft core porn," in his words) to make my blog more titillating and interesting (to him).
Little does he know that as it stands, my blog is the kiss of death for my personal life. What guy in his right mind wants to date a woman with the compulsive need to publish every amusing anecdote from any part of life, with or without the knowledge or consent of said participants (although, to my credit, everyone is anonymous).
I'm already working with an addiction to salsa dancing (who wants to date a woman who presses up to a variety of men several nights a week?), am 36, and the recent discovery that I don't actually like cooking (unless you consider making coffee to be cooking).
So whatever restraint that I manage to exhibit in my blog, all in the name of preserving whatever is left of my dignity, as well as some shred of hope for a relationship with a man who isn't a sadist or a masochist, must be supported!
Just for today, I can hear feedback on my blog.

Where have you met a man "in his right mind"? I don't buy the "soft-core" thing one bit, either. Although the blog might be considered an idiosyncrasy, so might crocheting hot pink slippers. Still not a go/no go attribute in my book. All this is to say you're an incredible package, and your prince will consider himself quite lucky when he finds you. Keep up the good work! KWK
