Computer Love

I think at some point in our lives we have all experienced what it feels like to be in LOVE. Okay, maybe not EVERYONE but most of us have. Just one thought of that person and you are beaming the most beatific smile...you don't even have to be in their presence just the mere thought of them. You just thought of someone, didn't you? LOL I know you did. Any who, that person you thought of (stop lying you know you thought of them) how did you meet them? Through friends, work at a coffee shop (always thought that was so romantic when it happened...in the movies of course). And how did you know they were the one? That you were IN LOVE with this person? How long did it take before you realized it? 

"Sheesh, why so nosy, Mackgurl?" I'm being nosy, I mean I'm asking because what I really want to know is this - Do you believe in love at first sight? You know, that feeling of being thunderstruck as soon as you lay eyes on them...a person you've never seen before? You can't explain it but you just know THIS person is the love of your life!

If you do believe in LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT, does it have to actually be in person? Don't laugh, I'm serious. Oh come on, with the increase of people using social media for everything (biz startups, music promotion) including dating apps is it possible to fall in love with someone from just say a photo? So you're scrolling online on your fave social media platform and then it happens. Your eyes fall to the most beautiful/handsome face you have EVER seen! Something about them calls out to you - no explanation for it. I mean sure they're pretty/cute but that's not it. It's that feeling of being hit by a boulder (no I have no idea what that's like but I can imagine a boulder would hit pretty hard). This is it! This is the person you've been waiting to meet and you didn't even know it. Even now, you've not spoken one word to this person. Can this be love?

Suppose you muster the courage to reach out to them and now you're chatting. The more you chat, the more your feelings grow and are solidified.  Maybe you even progress to video calls. It's like they are right there with you. Talking to you! With a voice you just knew would be as melodic as it turned out to be. But (uh oh, here we go) you've never ACTUALLY met them. Sure you talk everyday, for hours and hours but you've never been physically in there presence. I know people who've been in love and in LDRs (long distance relationships) say video chats are wonderful for this purpose. Feels like you're with them. 

Okay, I can see that but we aren't talking about people who have been dating, have ACTUALLY met and for whatever reason find themselves in a LDR. No, we are talking about someone you've only met online...seen a few photos and maybe a phone call, maybe not. Just messages...Still think it's possible? 

Have you ever fallen in love with someone you've never met? How did it work out? Drop me a line at mackgurl@gmail.com and tell me ALL about it.

Sending virtual hugs and kisses,
Mackgurl

Puzzle

Sometimes we don't know what we want. Heck, most of the time we barely know what it is we need. So, isn't it amazing then that when we find it, stumble across it or when it finds us, it is basically immediately clear that it is in fact what was needed, what was wanted? Like, say you're putting together a puzzle. Perhaps it's one with oh let's say a thousand pieces (whew that's ALOT)                                                                                                                                                    http://clipart-library.com/jigsaw-puzzle.html You start with the edges putting them together and b...

Look before you eat...

Hello folks! This is NOT the Super Bowl party snack post. (check back tomorrow for that one). But it is related to food (smile) This post is a cautionary tale about food - specifically MAKE SURE YOU CHECK YOUR FOOD BEFORE YOU EAT IT! A friend and coworker of mine visited an establishment who was offering FREE bagels today. How wonderful! I really enjoy bagels from this particular restaurant. And who doesn't like. FREE, right?Well, imagine her surprise when she reached into her a bag for delightful wheel of bready goodness and finds a little something extra: The heck is THAT??!?!?!! What do you think this something extra is? (no, I'm not talking about the raisin) Look closely at the top of the bagel. Do you see those tawny colored rope-y looking things? I was hoping it was a piece of the paper bag the company put her FREE bagels in. But honestly, she I both had the same thought - "It looks like strands of WEAVE/BRAID EXTENSIONS!!!" GASP! My buddy was not ...

Cast Off

Letting go isn't always an easy thing.  It is most times, well, a necessary thing...of course necessary has nothing to do with easy.  How many of you are currently in a relationship? No, not with chocolate or alcohol but an actual relationship with another person? They text you or call you every day several times a day...you're making plans to see them before you even finish with one date...you miss them when your time together for that date is drawing to an end...you see them walking towards you and you can't help but smile, waiting for that hug, that kiss...you have so much fun with them you can't imagine them not being around... Fun stuff right? (Ok well most of the time it is - if not, get out but that's a post for another time)  Ok so for all the currently boo'd up readers, is this your first relationship? Hmm, I'm guessing probably not - at least for most anyway. So at some point you were head over heels for someone else. Each day you woke up excit...
