I’ve been binging on
the episodes of GeekLove on YouTube. One episode that I really liked was the
Mama’s Boy: Ladies Man who learned that he should really move out of his
parent’s place. Talk about learning a valuable lesson.
Sci-Fi Speed Dating was
at the DC comic convention back in April. Because my friends and I were the
last session of the day so we hung around talking to the people running it. We
all ended up going to dinner and having a great time. Ryan, the guy who runs
it, is absolutely hilarious.
My BFF really wanted
to go and I went along as moral support. I’d done it before at a non-nerd
MeetUp group and it hadn’t gone well. The only time speed dating had gone well
for me before was when I was the only girl. As cool as Ryan and his people are,
that still held true in April.
I got no love, no
numbers. I have too strong a personality for 3 minute doses IMHO. Ryan said
there was one girl at New York Comic Con who went to every single session and
got no numbers until the very last session on the very last day when she got
more numbers than everyone.
I’m glad it worked
for most people on the web show. I did not especially enjoy getting no love
while 2 of my friends got numbers so I’m calling it on speed dating for me.
Since Boy Toy and I got together a week after that disastrous session, that’s
probably a good thing.
I did get one set of
good digits out of it. I saw a girl in a book dress, told her it was awesome,
and got a new friend. We hang out on the regular and she’ll be joining a group
of us for Baltimore Comic Con. We saw the Rocky Horror Show last week. I think this may work out better than most of my past relationships.
