i'm putting this out to the universe: by christmas (of this year) i will be in a committed relationship with an amazingly scruffy, successful man. he is a writer, with a collection of plaid woven shirts, crisp denim jeans, and sperry topsiders lining his closet. when it gets cold, he dons a pea coat and minimalist gray thermal scarf.
he doesn't believe in socks, which is great because neither do i.
he opens my eyes to the world of literature, i open his to the world of fashion. together we shop the farmer's market on the weekends, walk the sea wall, and take in a new restaurant, exhibit, or movie.
i've tried plenty of fish (as you've all witnessed) and i've tried match.com. this man i'm describing does not believe in internet dating: he prefers reading to internet surfing, and only opens his laptop up to blog or download documentaries in itunes.
this means that i need to:
1. get the hell off POF
2. get out in the real world.
i'm taking a challenge: the 'how i met my man' challenge (as desperate as this makes me seem).
i want to know how you (all 3 of my readers) met your husband/boyfriend/partner, and i'm going to re-enact these events and see what happens. call it my version of a 30 day challenge.
email me your stories @ kthrn_douglas@yahoo.com
let's make this happen.

You already know my story, right? So there aren't any Snoop Dogg concerts in your area in the next month but I took the liberty of looking on Ticketmaster and K'Naan's performing tonight, tomorrow, Friday and Monday. I'd highly recommend going to one of those. If you haven't heard him you'll love him! Oh and LL Cool J's in your hood on Saturday if you want to go old school. :)
ReplyDeletewho's k'naan?
ReplyDeletei'd SO be at LL cool J if i was in town...i'll be in chicago all weekend. i DID go to caribou sunday night and kept an eye out...but i think it was a bit too nerdy white boy electronica to count...
Aw damn! K'Naan's a hip hop artist I believe from Canada but might originally be from somewhere in Africa. He's funky good. Check out his World Cup anthem.
