i complete me

A friend casually suggested that I get on the dating scene while I have an abundance of free time. I confess I'm reluctant to foray into this field while I'm unemployed and living with my parents; what guy in his right mind would actually want to date that?

All the same, I mozied here and answered about a bazillion questions to generate a personality profile that will lead me to my soulmate(s). I somewhat expected a flattering profile, an ego boost to get the reluctant dater to fork over dues for services. But I was still surprised by the one generated by my answers, which described me not as a generally nice person, but as one who is emotionally mature and both familiar and at ease with who she is.

Then I read this, and found myself checking off all of the items on the list at the end. It's hard not to immediately recognize that most of the credit belongs to God or to recall that most of the good changes that took place in me during my 20s occured as I got to know Him better. But still... it's hard not to let this stuff go to my head. I mean, daaaamn, I'm a catch! I'd date me, in a heartbeat.

I'm going to make out with the mirror now.
