A Challenge!
Friday, March 31, 2006
The time is upon us, The Great epic Slacker's Dating Odyssey is finally ready to start being released. Starting next week (April 3rd), I will start posting (2-3 at a time) some of the what will eventually be about 20ish books (chapters) for your reading pleasure. It will be a wondrous tale of love and mischief, of gods and their trials. You will definitely have to check it out.
Since the original chapters have been written, it's also time to start adding to it. This epic is not complete and you are now challenged to help be muse to the rest!
The Challenge:
Slacker's Dating Odyssey is a tale of the travels of yours truly in the dating world given a mythological twist. However, I have yet to find my personal Penelope and and the tale will continue until then.
This is where you come in.
Slacker is still single, and while single, no chapters are being added to the epic journey. I've tried bars, tried school, Match, and even given in to the evil eharmony to no avail. So, now I am appealing to all of you.
The blogosphere is broad and full of connections, full of possibilities though, so it's time this is explored. I challenge all of you so scour your links, to explore new blogs and to find someone worthy of a new chapter. You get to play matchmaker, to play muse to the next part of the Epic.
You have read through this blog, you know much of my taste. The challenge is to find and connect your Slacker with someone you believe could be the elusive Penelope.
To win this challenge, the new book of the Odyssey must extend to the third date. And to this victor will go a beverage of their choice In Person with myself at a future date to be determined!
So there you have it, you have been challenged. Let the adventure continue!

No way am I willing to torture you with any of my nutjob friends. You're better off single.
Seriously, though--I have a female friend who is looking (in Texas, too far away for you), and she's tried Match and all that other stuff. She's considering trying http://www.itsjustlunch.com/
Kind of a cool idea--the service interviews you personally and then sets you up on a lunch date with people they think are right for you--but it's pricey. I think my friend said $1200 or $1500 gets you a year, or a minimum of 12 dates (no maximum). Yow. But sounds interesting, if you're loaded.
