I am glad to hear you are having fun. I also, vote for #2 and possibly 3,4 or 5. I guess after I get through with chemo in January and lose my steriod weight, I will have to get out there again. In the meantime, I hope you continue to enjoy yourself.

Hmmm. 3 references to something weird and gross porn thing? OHHH this isn't a red light, it's way beyond that. Lose that one.
Actually I love the dish on the dates. I'm an old married lady with only sons - I gotta get this stuff vicariously.

Have fun Joy, I am glad that date number 2 went well..
For the mo I would say just enjoy the company and the attention, don't worry about anything else so early on, just be the hot and flirty Joy;-)
The rest will fall into place as and when..life is for living.
