Matchmaking

We have a new neighbor from down the hill. His name is Doug. He likes to bring his camp chair up at sunset and enjoy the view from the top of the hill. We try to make him feel welcome. We've spoken several times. He's moved here to work for Microsoft. He's smart, well read and loves dogs and animals. I'm pretty sure he's straight, (didn't ask) and I know he's not married. He's my age or a bit younger. Good looking with dark brown hair and green eyes and in shape.

This is driving my inner Yenta nuts. I can't tell you how long I've kept a mental list of my straight girlfriends who are looking for boyfriends and/or dates. Typically at least 4 or 5 at any given time.

So here I have a perfectly good straight boy, potential date and I've got scratch, nothing.

So Seattle friends if you have a candidate I'll get a pic of him tomorrow. He loves playing with Bear. We just can't let these lonely straight boys go to waste.

It's a shame I'm so far away. I'm open to meeting new single guys, that are close to my age.

You're inner Yenta? OMG, just another reason I'm nuts about you. Wish I knew someone in your area to throw your way....

I love it...inner Yenta! You are so funny!

The guy has to be cool if he loves Bear! I'm too far away to help with any of my single girlfriends, but I'm sure someone will turn up!

Good luck in your Yenta duties! Bwahahahahaha

You could always take him to the strip club. He'll find a nice girl down there just trying to pay her way through college. ;-)

I have read your blogs after leaving HappyOne's blogs. If you don't mind I would like to continue reading them. You are rather funny and I'm new to the site. Just a note - there are plenty of single gals in Idaho.
