O_A, i'm on okcupid and trying to find yr profile so i can comment but for some reason looking for a straight man near long beach, ca with the word "crutches" in profile isn't working for me. Tips?

eta: and blessing for whoever mentioned that you can turn off im's. ye gods, every im i got was some skeezy jerk in another state who was a negative match making annoying comment.

I love that picture of Coop. His expression is priceless. That's frame-worthy.

Yeah, absolutely. The thing I love most about that one is that it captures the twinkle in his eye--that twinkle that comes just before he does something he knows he's not supposed to do. If I remember correctly, he shot out of the courtyard with a certain auntie chasing him right after that picture was shot. Such a friggin' cutie.

Love the expression, love the adorable pic.

Hash Brown Quiche: [link]

I use more eggs and less cream.

I use that recipe, and I don't even bother with the butter, I use 4 eggs, and 2% milk instead of cream (since it's what's always in the fridge), and instead of the ham & whatever, I use spinach.

Okay, so I basically *don't* use that recipe, except for baking the hash brown crust. Without the butter.

Um. Ignore me.

Omnis, I apologize if this comes off wrong, but in looking at your profile, it says you're looking for "Bi girls only." And I fully believe that everyone should seek the type of person they're interested in. But that specification seems like it might rule out a large portion of women reading your profile. Which does sort of turn it into a numbers game, but the ratio of bisexual to hetero women on any given dating site is going to be darn low, I would think.

I had the same thought, Teppy. Also, your introductory paragraph might be less apologetic. You really are a kind, successful and funny guy and that should be upfront.

e-o, I thought that when we met at Pambiche this summer, you still lived up the block from there. That's why I was confused! Or maybe this summer has just gone by so fast that your definition of "not recently" and mine are different. I guess it's actually been a little while since I've been there. Time flies when you eat the same quiche every day for lunch.

More painting today!! [link]

There starts the pictures of Emeline's room transformation.

Very pretty room, Aims!

And I fully believe that everyone should seek the type of person they're interested in. But that specification seems like it might rule out a large portion of women reading your profile.

To me, it reads as "only interested in something that leads to threesomes or else."

Even as a bi girl, I wouldn't respond because I get skeeved by boys who want to date me because they think I'll always be thumbs up about bringing other girls into bed. I don't want to even tell them I've dated girls much less wanting to go on a date with that guy. It's a personal thing, of course.

But, like Tep said, people need to seek the kind of person they are interested in certainly.
