Most Wanted

Have you ever really wanted something but had absolutely no idea how to get it for yourself?  This is the boat I'm in right now.   Every post I read on Facebook is about an engagement or new baby.  How does everyone instinctively know how to go about getting those things?  Bars aren't my thing.  I've never understood "flirting".  I'm all awkward and nervous trying to talk to new people. How is someone like me going to meet my nerdy dream guy?

When you look around at all the marriages between truly awful people, you'd think it wouldn't be that hard.  I'm not terrible.  I don't kick kittens and I love puppies.  I've been told I'm funny and sweet.  I sorta get football and hockey.  I cook and bake-ish.  So WTH is the problem here?!

My hope is to bump into an attractive, intelligent, caring professor between the ages of 30-40 with most of his original hair, who loves kids, in the bookstore.  In my head we are browsing the same section, and just bump into each other and fall head over heals immediately.  But so far the only thing the bookstore has gotten me is a full bookcase. 

In my heart, I know that one day my prince will come. But if it could happen sooner rather than later, I'd be much obliged, not to mention a little less grumpy...

Rant concluded : )

Amen, sister! You hit the nail on the head with, "How does everyone instinctively know how to go about getting those things?" I don't care if people say, "it'll happen when you least expect it." I, too, am getting tired of all the announcements posted on Facebook! When will it be OUR turn?!?!
