Where it began...where I really began

Gone are the days of publishing books...publishing sequels to best sellers, or sellers...period.

I considered writing a book, but in the ever-evolving life of a big(ish)-city girl and the adventures in babysitting, nay, dating...it seems the blogosphere is a great way to share the entertaining tales.

I'm better in writing. I even tend to break-up with men in writing. I am a PR professional by trade, and so my strength comes through on paper/computer screen.

I really started to find my voice when I got out of a serious relationship and started dating. I can almost say online dating is a PG version of prostitution: look at my picture, like what you see, and take me out. It's a vicious cycle that only ends when I log off and shut down.

I found myself emailing my girlfriends daily with updates of last night's disaster. Only once would it read "I'd definitely go out again," maybe periodically "I'd give it another shot," but most often the email would have us all laughing hysterically at the poor guy.

So for all the girls/women out there who have had good times, great times, terrible never-want-to-do-that-again times..this is for us...or at least it will be.

Because to me, life is like a small banana. It's usually what you get.
