I have a feeling that I just must not look like I set my standards too high.

As I was leaving my apartment yesterday, my next door neighbour called me over to her car. So I go over there and she says that there's a deaf guy at her work (she works as a maid at a motel) who is looking for a woman to go "get a drink" with him and he asked her if she knew anybody. She said, "Well my next door neighbour might be interested."

WHAT?

WHY ME? Why in the hell would I want to go out on a date w/ some guy I do not know, to a bar to drink, and the guy is deaf? If the guy is asking my next door neighbour, Amy, to find him a woman to go get a drink at a bar, then he must be desperate, right? And if he's desperate, like so many other people, then there is only one person to call: ME!

Hey, let's call Michelle, she seems desperate. She'd want to go on a date with a deaf guy she doesn't even know to a bar to get a drink.

FUN!

I told Amy that I didn't drink and didn't hang around in bars. She seemed disappointed. I mean has she ever seen me stumbling in my house or smelled alcohol on my breath, or heard any stories of any drunken rampages I've been on? Of course not. And I told her before I didn't drink or smoke dope. Oh well, I guess I look like the type who parties all the time and wants to hang out with deaf guys I don't know in some stinky bar full of drunks.

I guess I'll have to start dressing like a Mennonite or something.

They'll never get it.

Please, don't ever try to set me up with anyone, it really pisses me off. Nine times out of ten it will be with some absolute loser I DON'T EVEN KNOW. Let's get this straight, folks. I don't hang out with strange men I don't know, not in bars or other places.

I felt really weird after she did that. I don't understand why people feel the need to volunteer me as a "date" to their co-workers or friends. Do I have "Desperate" written on my forehead?

Vent over. and out.
