History, part 1: August 7, 2014

So, due to popular demand (my brother and sister-in-law) and my need to have my ego inflated even further, I'm officially blogging what has been my texts up to this point. What I've affectionately been entitling "My Misadventures in Match."

Anyway, let's go through the history of what I've said so far:

So, I joined Match last night.

Let the mocking begin. And because the daughter and I share an iTunes account, it dawned on me as I was downloading the app that she would get it in her phone too. I started cursing like a sailor at Jen, who was on the floor crying with hysterical laughter as I'm screaming hysterically, "omfg Em just got the match app downloaded to her phone. Shit. Shit. Shit."

So, while my kids know that I might be dating, I was planning on keeping the internet portion on the DL. However, once it was out there, I have to say the kids embraced it. Here were the texts. First, from the first born:

And then the conversation from the darling daughter:

To which my response to her line was "Praise the Sweet Baby!"

 

And then, about 24 hours later, I sent out this text to a few peeps:

So, I've been on Match for 36 hours. According to all the romance novels I read, or TV shows I watch, or movies I see, shouldn't I have found my prince charming by now? #ItspossibleImighthaveunrealisticexpectations
