Welcome to my humble blog........

I came across this site because Viv told me about a friend's "must see" Blog - which I finally found because it's 'dot' not "@" blogspot.com.

I somehow ended up with my own Blog but I had no idea what the heck to do said Blog. I decided on it's original content whilst chatting with a guy I met online who I called The Lounge Singer. He thought I was funny and suggested that I write my witticisms down.

It started out with me pecking away at the keyboard for the sake of posterity. Eventually, it took on a new life and it morphed into a Blog of my online dating experiences.

I hope you enjoy alittlebrowndog

NOTE: Should you find yourself the subject of one of my essays, don't get all jerked up. Stand up, smile and be proud that you made such an impression on me - because it's not easy.

Hugs!!!!!

Introduction to Online Dating

I'm part of a group of women who are older, single and looking for someone to be spend time with.  I'd like to find a guy who can deal with me through thick (literally) and thin (I wish).  Unfortunately, meeting guys in person is difficult, so I began the adventure of online dating.

The online dating idea had been in my head for a while but I just couldn't get started and I was kind of afraid that I'd look desperate.  In October of 2008, I was home sick and so bored.  I really missed people watching and actually interacting with people.  The next thing I knew, Starfish was born and I was now in the game.

It's been a long and interesting two years with a few different user names, lot of laughs and great stories to share with friends.  Nicknames were created to keep up with who was where and what his story was.  Weekly updates were demanded of me because the characters somehow became a source of entertainment for all.  The pressure was on for me to produce more men!

Be that as it may, online dating is one crazy trip.  I've been down some wacky roads along the Internet Dating Highway and I think it's time to share some of my adventures.  So buckle up, grab a snack and a smoke and maybe I'll get you to laugh a little, too.

I started my search on a couple of paid sites, foolishly thinking that I'd get a more realistic bunch of prospects.  Unfortunately, I was dead wrong.  I can't publish any of the pictures or profiles but I think you'll get a good mental picture by the end of this Blog.  The profiles range from beyond hysterical, to very odd, to quite disturbing.  Every time that I think I've found the weirdest profile, I come across one that tops it.

So if you're bored one day, go to one of the free sites and make up a profile just to do some people watching.  You're sure to have a few laughs - and if you're single, you might find your next date.

To Be Continued....

Why is it that all the guys who have been emailing me are only interested in cyber-sex?
"John" and "Kurt" and the names go on.  Aren't there any normal looking guys interesting in meeting a cool chick like me?!!
