You never know who you'll run into


Recommended Posts

I went to a speed dating meetup on Saturday the 3rd just for the hell of it, not really expecting anything. I pretty much thought all the women there would be first-timers...

 

Well, one of them wasn't... she'd been at one of the speed dating meetups I went to a couple of weeks ago, but she's shy and not my type.

 

But the real surprise came when I got to sit down with one of the women who I met briefly at a potluck meetup for singles 2 years ago, I'll call her Jane... a cute brunet with brown eyes who's just nutty enough that I could have the hots for her if it turns out she enjoys a lot of the same things I enjoy. Jane and I both recognized each other after a couple of seconds but it kind of bugged me that she was so hung up on me wanting to get my name legally changed (I've been wanting to do this for a couple of years but I have issues with some intellectual property rights). Bumping into Jane at that speed dating meetup totally made my day---even if she doesn't want to go out with me! :p It shows me you never know who you're going to run into at these meetups.

 

This happens at a time when I have about 1/3 of my home renovation project finished... the idea is, when I'm done with the other 2/3 I'll start hosting potlucks for my singles meetup group (and the chess club and authors' group).

 

As it turns out, there were a dozen or so women at the speed dating party on Saturday, and 4 of them said they really like reading books... so I told them great, I'll invite them to a potluck when my authors' group has a meetup.

 

Because you never know who you might run into at one of these things. :cool:
