Cupids Dating Blog

After hearing his tale, I thought I'd recount the story of love at first site. That's not a grammatical mistake or typo; it's really a bad pun. I think it's a bit witty, though, because by coincidence, both my friend and Karen found each other within days after joining their first online dating site ever. So congrats to them!

To start things off, let me point out that both are very athletic. He's the kind of jock with every digital clock in the house flashing "12:00" all-year long. But what he's lacking in the brains department, he more than makes up for with a great heart and a muscular torso that would even make a Ken doll jealous. Meanwhile, Karen is a petite fit woman who doesn't just walk her dogs, cats and various other rescued animals, she flat-out runs them!

It's here where our story begins. Karen loves her many pets, but they can't handle the physical stress she'll be putting them through in the upcoming couple of weeks. That's because she's training to run a marathon. My buddy's going to be doing the same, so he'd like a running partner to both push him to go that extra mile, as well as manage to keep up with him after already having jogged twenty-or-so others.

So where does a fit man like my pal go to meet a petite fit gal to call his own? Why online, of course! The two clicked instantly, both on their mice and with each other's personalities. So, lo and behold, they're going to have their first jogging session tomorrow morning.

I was happy for him and normally would have accepted his offer to join them at the crack of dawn for a 10K jog, but alas, I had other plans. I had a very important rendez-vous with my pillow, you see. Hey, don't judge me! I never claimed to be the fit guy out of the two of us!
