i signed up for something called “crazy blind date.” an off-shoot of “okcupid,” this server essentially sets you up on blind dates where you haven’t spoken to or seen said blind date. you just blindly follow the instructions prompted via email to a location on a day and time you’ve previously agreed to.
mummy may have seen an episode of “law and order” based on this very idea. (side note: mummy isn’t calling me with advice on how to evade situations that women find themselves in on shows of that ilk. i think she’s empty nesting really very hard and doesn’t quite know how to deal with it. also, she’s in the market for a gay best friend, seeing as how “you girls (meaning baby sister and myself) are so happy with yours.”)
i’m actually petrified at the thought of going anywhere blindly. i’m a woman who appreciates well laid plans and the prospect of not having control over any of this is highly disconcerting. which is exactly why i signed up. i need to get better with my aversion to discomfort.
also, look how cute this is:

I think part of your post may have been lost in the Internets – maybe an unclosed tag?
