enough with the jewelry commercials already!

sorry for the lack of posts lately, but very few dates = not much fodder for the blog. (i'll spare you the story of cross-eyed socially awkward guy...no offense to any cross-eyed and/or socially awkward readers out there, of course.)

but lately, the thing i have been inundated with is jewelry commercials. to borrow a line from a few different blogs, tom shane, you are NOT MY FRIEND! i was so pleased to be done with those ads when i moved to SD from SF, but it seems tom has tracked me down and is now harassing me in san diego, especially during my most favorite radio program ever...so annoying!

all i can think is that all these commercials must be worse for a guy in his late 20's or early 30's, let's say, who has been in a relationship for a year or more (talk about pressure! i know i'd be plugging in the ipod whenever driving around town with my gf!) than for your average single woman in her mid-30's. but it's gotta be pretty close.

perhaps things in the dating realm will pick up again after christmas is over and that dumb wishbone "every kiss begins with k" ad is a distant memory. philly should be fun though! happy holidays one and all!

love, md
