So me and about a million others have made our pilgrimage down south for Pesach. I have a few minutes to write while my Roomba makes its rounds. My trip down was pretty uneventful except for the cringe worthy behavior I observed from a few of the tribe members on the plane.
So I get down here and immediately all the yentas converge on me "so and so has a single son/grandson/nephew coming for Pesach - I'll introduce you!". I try to decline but mom gets in the way and I know it's a lost cause. I figure if I see a guy I'd be interested in I would just ask someone to introduce me. I truly hate being paraded around like a debutante. I always wonder if I should curtsy or offer my hand and say something like "charmed, I'm sure". Could you imagine if I curtsied? I really think I need to do that! Oh no, I can't, because then it's like bowing right? He'll think I'm an idol worshiper!
Anyway , I accepted one date while I'm down here - guy seems nice and normal which of course sets off my radar - why is he still single? But then I realize that we are in a different state and unlike me, most people just can't pick up and relocate. I decided to set the date right away so if we hit it off we can see each other again before I go home. Wishful thinking huh!
I'll keep you posted!
