my online dating profile
This is my official declaration of intent to write up a ‘profile’ of myself for online dating sites in the hopes that some good woman will read it, fall in love with me (or decide she can put up with a guy like me) and eventually marry me.
Hopefully by publicly announcing the intitiation of this project I will feel some obligation to actually follow through to completion, anyway that’s my theory.
I was thinking of where to start and how to go about this. Perhaps I could start by using the profile questioniares of some of the more popular dating sites and later add whatever else seems appropriate.
Before I go to far, I had better fix my built-in spellchecker so I don’t appear to be semi-illiterate. I guess that’s my first characteristic I’ll mention, I’m a little more literate than semi, but a fairly poor speller. 2nd is I basically write how I speak and pay little attention to formal grammar, so please excuse me, especially if you’re an english teacher.

Hi, I read your blog from time to time and notice you have an interest in listening to podcast. Maybe with your on-line dating profile you may want to not only write it but record it?
We just launched podato.com last week and are looking for people to start it off.
Basically it’s a dating sinlge for singles. They record a sound clip from their mobile phone and send it to podato@gmail.com via MMS, it’s placed on our site so people can download to their MP3 player.
I think it’s very handy for busy people who are always on the go.
