My Crush!

And people think I'm weird for liking the sport of golf! Um hello this guy is reason enough for me! Friends let me introduce you to Dustin Johnson. The newly single 26 year old PGA Tour professional from South Carolina! Isn't he just dreamy?  Believe me when I say that when he walked into The Dunvegan Hotel a few days before The Open started I was beyond thrilled! Not only is he tall, dark, & handsome but a complete southern gentleman as well!  So if anyone is up for attending a golf tournament with me this season just let me know. And oh, if you have his phone number that could help to-hey, a girl can dream can't she?

The Inspiration!

 Tonight I went on a date. A blind date. I've never done one of those before so to say it was interesting is an understatement.

Here is a list of my Top 10 awkward moments from the phone call leading up to tonight & the date!

We'll start with the phone call....
1. "I want to date your Dad" Seriously? Don't worry folks that was just five minutes into the conversation!
2. "The fact that you like golf makes up for many of the strikes you've gotten against you tonight" Was that supposed to be funny because it wasn't.
3. "You haven't been playing golf since you were little? Then I would crush you." How sweet.  

I thought first impressions were important however in this case apparently not! But don't worry folks it just gets better....

The Date....
4. "So what's wrong with you?" Wow. I'm 29 years old and single. There is nothing wrong with me.
5. "I'm a runner. I run because I want to keep myself from getting fat & from getting man boobs." Yes, he said man boobs.
6. "Nerd Alert!" His response to me telling him I was in choir growing up.
7. " Can our second date be in St. Andrews, Scotland? No? So how about the third? Still no? Well, you never know how far you can get unless you ask!"  Sorry there isn't going to be a second date.
8. "I think I found your name tag..." As he's dropping a packet of sugar in front of me.
9. "So, you're a typical girl..." And that's a bad thing because....
10. The best moment had to be when we said goodbye. I went in for the side hug. He went for the full frontal. It was awkward and we definitely did some side to side dodging for a good minute or so.

Don't get me wrong. He was a really nice guy there was zero chemistry. This date definitely will go in the books and be laughed about for a long time....thanks for laughing with me!

Here we go...

So I was talking to my good friend Brittany about a date that I went on tonight and she encouraged me to blog about it! I mean we laughed. We laughed really, really hard. So why not write about it to so you can laugh right along with me!

 Going to a Baptist University where the phrase "Ring by Spring" is a reality me being 29 and gasp single can be quiet strange to some people. I mean the guy I went out with tonight had the audacity to ask "What's wrong with you?" Um really? Really guy? Did you seriously just ask me that? Strike one. My next blog will be about that-the date that inspired this blog! Here are some facts about me....
  • The title is almost a reality-I've been in 14 weddings. A family that I'm close with calls me 27 Dresses just for fun!
  • I've gone through 6 roommates in the past few years. The majority of them have been single when they move in.  I guess I'm a "lucky charm"
  • I'm not old!
  • There is nothing wrong with me-I just don't believe in settling!
So here we go. I hope you guys enjoy my stories and laugh along this twenty something Texas girls journey to find love!
