more randomness

So, remember I mentioned the random email I got from the foreign guy I went on a few dates with? I received another random email the other day.

As many of you know I started dating again back in June. Seeing as I'm not really into the idea of meeting/dating someone from work, I opted to join Match and eHarmony just to get out there and meet people. Not like I didn't know it already but there are some weird people out there. I got matched up with a guy my friend actually went on a date with and nicknamed him "the foot banger." Anyhow, I went out on some dates with a few guys, and then I went back to St. Louis for a friend's wedding. While there, one of my friends agreed to be my date to the wedding. After some old feelings made their way to the surface and became fresh feelings, I decided to hide my profiles on the sites. My subscriptions came up for renewal recently, and I opted to cancel them as I figure out what those feelings mean and just deal with the rest of what life seems to be throwing my way.
So a few days ago, I got an eHarmony notification that I received a communication from a past match that I closed. There's a few things wrong with this...
1. I closed that match at the latest in the beginning of October and he's just now responding and wishing me luck.
2. As of the end of November, I am no longer an eHarmony subscriber/member. Which essentially leads to:
3. As a web geek, that's a code screw up. I'd think if someone's profile is now hidden, you shouldn't be able to send communication. Even more so, if I am no longer a member why are you emailing me anything besides solicitations to rejoin (which thankfully they aren't.)

Anyhow, I just find it funny that over 2 months after I "close" a connection or tell a guy it's just not going to work I get emails. Weird. After consulting with a guy friend, we decided I'm not even emailing the foreign guy to tell him "No. I still don't think it will work."

Enough of that. I know, it's kind of a lame blog. I just had to laugh at with someone other than myself.

Keep your fingers crossed for baby Otto. He's still lookin scrawny, but I'm watching him and weighing him. It's going to be hard to leave him for 13 days. I'm sure Stacia will take good care of him and Ru when she's looking after him. The a-hole better be able to stop in and check on them and the house at least once around Christmas - not like he's actually doing anything or celebrating.

One week till vaca!

Cheers,
