Sunday night was the lunar eclipse and I watched with 100+ of my closest friends. Hanging out in the dark with a bunch of strangers was quite romantic. Ha! It just reinforced I need a date! It also brought to mind that silly camp song…
Just a boy and a girl in a little canoe
With the moon shining all around
As he glides his paddle
You couldn’t even hear a sound
And they talked and they talked
Till the moon grew dim
He said you better kiss me
Or get out and swim…
Y’all voted and the winner is….
You are picking my next fella. All three of these guys (I can’t say gentlemen) emailed this weekend. Below is an excerpt of their profile, their photo, and their email.

Lula Harp 
I’m so shallow. I picked easygoing481 because he’s the cutest. Very nice, clean teeth. LovonLife73 looks like a mouth breather, although his e-mail was the most grammatically correct and the woman in the photo (!) obviously likes him. PasoP55 is still in college? At least he’s not gonna lie…

Aw man Lula, not one of these guys seem to be what I would picture you being with. Their profiles don’t fit, but hey, it’s just me. Curious what the rest think. 👎🏻😝😘

I agree. Not my caliber of fella but these are the only 3 that followed my “instructions” of writing more than hi or hello.

Not sure how this comment came through. I didn’t press post, but I was on my phone. Came and got on my laptop. See below.

Oh dear Lula… They all suck! Not a keeper in the group. You are way too cool a chick, smart, witty, self sufficient to go out with one of these bozos, but hey, it’s just me. One doesn’t even have a job, and one is in college! WTF!!! On a positive note, I have several friends who met their match online and are now happily married. It can happen. Can you say the word patience? A meet up with one of them would make for a good post, but at what cost, LOL! xoxoxoxoxoxo

I suppose I could get a few martinis out of this. That’ll make that post even more entertaining!

Lula, some packages are good to unfold a bit before you decide that you don’t like the present inside. I think it is a bit hasty to judge someone just based on their physical appearance. It is like judging a book by it’s cover. A date with Easygoing might not be such a bad thing. Just don’t go to Vegas and have a speedy tying of the knot 😉 Just take it from a first date and a nice cocktail then you decide if you want to see the person again or not.
