The Dateable Dork

Dudes, I’m back!  Welcome to my new and improved site.  I’m totally psyched to be here, and you should be too.  Let’s get a few things out of the way, ok? : )

I’m still the same sexy dork that I’ve always been

Yes, I’m a total dork.  Seriously.  It took me a long time to accept the fact that I’d never be one of the cool kids, but now I fully embrace my dorkiness because I know it’s programmed into my DNA and I can’t do a damn thing about it.  I’ve got a big ass graphing calculator that even my dorky coworkers laugh at, I get excited about learning new tricks in Excel and Access, I read classic Russian literature, and I have been known to crack microbiology jokes in social situations.  What can I say?  I’m a hopeless cause.

But despite my incredible dorkiness and general inability hang out with the in-crowd, I’m totally dateable, and I actually manage to wrangle hot naked men into my bed.  I dare not inquire as to how this is possible, for fear of this magical power being tragically revoked.  As it says in my headline, I am “unexpectedly” sexy.  I certainly didn’t expect it, and neither do the guys I go out with.  But here I am.  A sexy dork.  I love that moment when my date finally realizes what he’s dealing with, and he gets that goofy look in his eyes that shows he’s pleasantly surprised and suddenly can’t wait to have his way with me.  Ahhh, I wish I could capture that classic look on film, but at the time my hands are always *ahem* too busy to reach for the camera. : )

My inbox has moved on to bigger and better

My inbox loves you (and so do I), so feel free to fill it up with delightful little messages about whatever gets your juices flowing.

Please note that I have (finally!) migrated over to Gmail, so be sure to update your address books accordingly.

I finally learned how the internet works

Get this, people – I picked up a basic HTML book and managed to set up my very own site.  How friggin awesome is that?  Just think of me as the new and improved DD, now with extra dorkiness.  But be warned: I’m not very good at this… yet.  If this site looks funky, behaves badly, and doesn’t open the door for you or kiss you goodnight, please send me a friendly little note and let me know about it.  Chances are good that I messed up some perfectly good code.  Although I’ll do my very best to fix any funkiness, please bear with me.

There’s a dead bunny at the bottom of the page

Apparently this blog comes with a dead bunny.  I can roll with that, and hopefully you can too.  He’s really quite charming, don’t you think?  I like to think of him as a cute little representation of me and my current feelings about the New York dating scene.  Enough said. : )
