Finding friends and coming alive ...

After a year of actively trying to make women friends to date, but getting nothing but rejections, I suddenly managed to land dinner dates two Saturdays in a row. It is amazing how much better the world feels already.

Both of these were the result of contacts from Match.com - and amazingly, both of them live in my neighborhood, within 3/4 mile from my house, but I had never met either. One of them drives a white convertible like I do, and has two beagles like I do.

This comes on the heels of my daughter confessing that "I met a boy". That was the biggest news when I visited her a couple of weeks ago in Houston, where she is a graduate math student at Rice University.
