Ok all, I’m finally back! The surgery exam was a blitch on wheels but I think I managed to survive it. So I am officially a 4th year medical student now. Lately I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with the rest of my life and the last 8 months of medical school. I’m trying to plan a little travel and still get a chance to do all of the required rotations so that I can pimp walk my behind right out the door in October!

Okay so onto the subject of today’s post.

Let’s start with problem number one: I was lonely. Still am to a certain extent but that is what it is.

So what do the lonely do? They spend way too much time on the internet. Yeah I know, I should be done with the men on the internet after my unfortunate incident on Black Peo.ple Me.et. But quite obviously I’m a sucker for punishment. My girl met a guy on there and he doesn’t look like a farm animal so I thought, I’ll give it another try.

How could I be more wrong!

So one night while browsing a young fella sent me an instant message. Bored (I know, the idle mind is the playground of the devil), so I responded. We proceeded to have an hour long conversation about just random stuff. I’m thinking, this is all right! But we all know it wasn’t.

He wasn’t exactly my type on the picture but he wasn’t instantly vomit producing. We started chatting daily for a few days and I said, what the heck, we should meet. Catch a movie or something.

I know, there were clues! Like when we talked about meeting up, he said “Do you have a car?”. That should have been a dealbreaker but I asked what happened to his car and he said it was totalled. I agreed to pick him up.

I get to his house (yeah he lives with his mom) and out comes a cat who looks VERY little like the picture. I mean dude photographs quite well! He had an old school haircut coupled with an old school coat and my personal pet peeve dress pants and white gym shoes! Now I wanted to run off screaming NOOOOO but I played it cool. We had made plans to go to a dinner and movie joint about 45 minutes away but you do know that I took one look and recalculated the entire plan. All of a sudden I didn’t “feel” like driving 45 minutes (and thank god for a light snow) so we went to the Little Theater in the Hood about 10/15 minutes away. We had a lovely fast food dinner while waiting for the movie (yep, I took that cat to Bur.ger Kin.g) . Saw Pink Panther (cute movie by the way) and I hopped right back in my car to deliver my unwanted package to its original destination.

So you all do know that I have since unsubscribed to the website and I am hiding out on the Yahoo Messenger for a while. I did make a date with a guy I saw on Mat.ch.com (but only to meet at a steppers class he takes which I’m interested in) but I swear I’m calling Uncle on the internet jokes! This will definitely be the last of the internet guys. From now on, if dude doesn’t have references (and I mean from a good friend of mine), he gets nowhere!
