* So far my experience at plentyoffish.com has been good. About 3/4 of the messges I get are from intelligent and interesting people who, just like me, want to meet friends and are hoping that certain chemistry might exist for something more. Then there are a few who want something else. I found a way to weed them out by my first reply back when they message me. I make it obvious I'm not "that kind of girl" but hey, lets be friends (or something like that) - - they don't write back :-) The people, so far, that are by far the most interesting are the one's I chose to write to first based on what I got from their profile. One even helped me re-write my profile (he said it didn't sound warm enough and had too many words that guys aren't interested in reading..... he offered to take pictures of me to post, but I'm not to sure about him just yet for a meeting let alone a photo session. There's also someone who is a Taoist enthusiast and wanna be hippy like me who is very cool (but he lives far away - so a one on one friendship would be impossible). I won't be posting detailed experiences (names pictures etc.) in my public journal (without the permission of the other person anyway) - but I think the general experience is worth sharing.

* What to do with too many Swiss Chard stems and parsley............

* I forgot to make my American Idol post this week, but it turned out as expected. The two David's are in the final two. Can't wait for next week. In a way I'm looking forward to it being over. I want to replace Wednesday evening TV hour with cardio - that day and another dedicated work night should help me get back in shape. I don't worry about my days off - I get PLENTY of exercise on those days.
