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]

The work paradox

16 Jun 2009

Allow me to hijack my personal blog for a minute to talk about work.  As you know, I work as a cubicle monkey in a standard-issue office with all the frills and accoutrements of any office that you might find anywhere in the country – blah-colored cube walls, lots of coworkers and bosses all packed [...]

Maybe he’s just a part of me

15 Jun 2009

If I email a jerk in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it really count? Ah, my dears, I am coming to the sad realization that a certain jerk-boy may be a permanent part of my life, whether I like it or not (and sometimes I think I actually like [...]

DD in the flesh: body as art edition

14 Jun 2009

There’s something about the curves of a woman’s body that is absolutely sublime.  Nature seamlessly combines art and science as the soft, gentle curves form an awe-inspiring sinusoidal wave, triggering both my outer dork and inner seductress.  Ah, if only I could pose in a gallery and encourage onlookers to experience this magnificent exhibit for [...]

Moving forward with WW… or not?

11 Jun 2009

As you know (because I’ve been talking about it incessantly these days), I’ve nearly reached my weight-loss goal and am really excited about the accomplishment.  I would absolutely love to see 129.9 on the scale because I honestly never thought I’d be in the 120s ever again, but I’d like to maintain a naked weight [...]

My day in a nutshell

10 Jun 2009

Super abbreviated summary of my day: Did some actual cool/interesting work at the office Lost another 1.2 pounds at the WW weigh-in, for a total of 12.2 pounds in 6 weeks Learned about the WW maintenance program, and have to think about how to handle it Had a ton of fun at a 3.5-mile race [...]

Feeling fantastic!

09 Jun 2009

I’m sure you’re probably sick of hearing about my Weight Watchers stories, but I just cannot believe how freaking amazing it feels to have lost that weight!  I’m feeling fucking fantastic!!!  It’s as if a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders (not to mention my hips, thighs, and ass), and I feel absolutely [...]

DD in the flesh: skinny jeans edition!

07 Jun 2009

Well, my dears, I fucking did it!  I stuck to Weight Watchers for 5 weeks (and counting), dropped over 10 pounds, and finally fit into my beloved skinny jeans.  Score!!!  There’s not much else to say, except that I look damn good.  : )  Enjoy the pics!

I close my eyes for a second, and something big happens

06 Jun 2009

Dudes, check me out!  I recently found out that this humble little blog was mentioned in a “Top 10 Gen Y Blogs: June 2009” compilation over at Ryan Stephens Marketing.  Don’t flip out – I wasn’t one of the Top 10 or anything, but I *was* mentioned in the “Also Receiving Votes” category, which is [...]

How to fit into your skinny jeans again

05 Jun 2009

Hello, blogland!  I know I’ve been pretty much non-existent lately, but I’ve been really enjoying my little vacation.  It’s great to spend a little while away from the hustle and bustle of my sexless dating blog (hahaha), but please know that I miss you all terribly!  What’s new, my peeps?  For those of you who [...]
