The Dateable Dork

Dating (mis)adventures of an unexpectedly sexy New Yorker

  • About Me

    I’m a 30-year-old (!!!), single, charming, and totally dorky girl taking on the ridiculous New York dating scene. When guys are surprised to see a sex kitten emerge from behind my dorky exterior, I just smile and reply, “Who ever said that dorks can’t be sexy?" [More]

I’ll be dreaming about shoes tonight

15 Dec 2008

I recently got tagged by the fabulous NewWrldYankee to list a bunch of random stuff about me, and who I am to turn down such a friendly tag?  The only problem is that you’re supposed to list five things for each question, and this kind of organization is just too much for my dorky little brain to handle at 10:00 at night.  So all you get is whatever happens to pop into my head.  Ok?  Enjoy.  : )

What were you doing ten years ago?

Way back in 1998, I was a freshman in college desperately trying to lose my obnoxious New York accent and get used to the idea of co-ed shower rooms.  (Hahaha, I didn’t need much time to get used to that!)  I was drowning in calculus and physics and wearing baggy pants and the remainder of my flannel shirts.  I thought it was totally amazing that I could go to class wearing regular clothes (i.e., no Catholic school uniform).  Wow.

What’s on your to-do list for today?

Since it’s the end of the day, how about stuff that I already did (wow, I’m so productive!)?  I stayed in bed for an extra half hour this morning fantasizing about juicy men from earlier this year.  Yum yum.  I sat on never-ending dorky conference calls at work.  I ate too many Christmas cookies.  I picked up my car from the shop.  I learned that rotors are something to do with brakes, and now I have some new ones.  (Hahaha, I never said I knew anything about cars!)

What are your favorite snacks?

Cheese.  Macaroni and cheese.  Cheese and crackers.  Maybe some chocolate.  Then more cheese.

What would you do if you were a millionaire?

Holy shit, now I’m getting all excited.  What would I do, you ask?  Build myself a walk-in shoe closet and FILL IT WITH AWESOME SHOES.  Wear my awesome shoes all over the place and revel in how fabulous my feet would look.  Strut my sweet little self into a [insert good place to meet men], blatantly display my kick-ass shoes, and land myself one of the delicious items from the wishlist in the sidebar.  See?  I have it all planned out.  : )

Where have you lived?

Ummm…. New York?  Even when I was away at school, my driver’s license has always had a New York address.  No, I am not proud of the fact that I’ve essentially lived in the same place my entire life.  Wait… yes I am.  I love New York.  You got a problem with that?  : )

**********

That’s all I’ve got, my dears.  If this list didn’t satisfy your undying thirst for random information about me, please ask away in the comments.  If you’re rolling your eyes at my boring day and obsession with cheese and shoes, I feel ya.  It’s Monday.  What can I say?

    Best recipe ever: buy a log of chevre, roll in slivered almonds, cover with honey, and bake for 20-30 minutes at 300 degrees. Drizzle with basalmic vinegar and eat on crackers.

    Dear god, it’s good.

    Claire – Oh yeah, me and cheese go way back. : )

    Honey – Sounds a little strange, but how can I resist the cheese? You know I can’t… LOL.
