    Can't Win.

    A friend and I made a bet in early February that I would get hit on by the end of March. I said it wouldn't happen, that guys don't hit on me. The stakes?

    I'll get $1000 if I'm right.

    And no, you people don't count. Sorry.

    I've spent some time out, and so far my theory has been proven true. To be fair, I haven't tried the real social bar scene, and am told that the bet would be over in five minutes if I were going to the right places. Ha, I say.

    But now I'm beginning to realize the Catch-22. If I win the $1000, I'll have to use it for therapy to resusitate my crushed self-esteem. If I lose: no $1000.

    Only ten days left.

    From what I have seen of your pictures here...you have nothing to worry about. Most people don't get picked up in bars anyway.

    Take the $1000. You'll get over it. If not, we don't charge for advice.

    Wow, what a dilemma . . .

    Wry, don't worry about your self-esteem. I'm not sure that you're mentally ready to go back out there, and if you're not really into it, you won't be sending out the same vibe as you do when you've got your "A game" working.

    As good as you look, and as interesting a person as you'd be to pick up and talk to at a party, bar, whatever, you'll have no problem whatsoever once you're truly ready.

    XO

    I can't believe that the woman in the neck/hair photo doesn't get hit on regularly. Are you like a roaring bitch to everybody? *chuckle*

    Hi WG,

    I'm scanning the cosmic radio for your exact location right now.

    After I've micro-located you, I'll be by with my spaceship to hit on you AND pick you up. Of course, I'll also plant a micro-chip in your butt so the next time, cosmic interference won't get in the way of my radar sweep.

    We'll blow the money on a nice bottle of Dom Perignon, sushi, and a string of pearls.

    Turn up the signal, girl!

    ;-)

    XOXO

    BTW, almost forgot--

    Elvis will be with me.

    And be honest-- you've always wanted to see the Loch Ness monster, no?

    It's on the schedule. That's better than $1000.

    XOXO

    Chuck

    We know exactly what will happen. You'll sneak through to the last day...when you'll run into a crazy bachelor party who will lavish attention on you all night. Murphy's Law at its' finest.

    That said, I'm shocked that you haven't been getting more attention.

    Very surprised that you don't get hit on regularly WG. I hope you win the bet but would be surprised if you do ... unless you spend the next 10 days montioring a convention for the blind.
