Authors Note

As you will soon read, when I set out on this blind date journey, my wish was to meet a man. Not just any man, but one who knows my God, is gainfully employed, has some manners and understands golf. Is that really too much to ask for? As this journey progressed, I began sharing my stories and bringing them to life in print. Friends and family laughed with me (and at me) as I told them the details of my blind date experiences. In what can only be described as divine intervention, I was given the chance to share my story with a wider audience. The result is this book youre now holding.

As a first-time author, I have chosen to write about what I know and what I have lived. This book is not intended to be a how-to guide for finding the right man (believe me, you dont want my advice), but an intimate, amusing and true tale. Some of my experiences and perspectives may not be spot on for all single women, but I do believe (unfortunately) they resonate with most. Orange County, California, (my dating domain) is a unique place, really unlike anywhere in the world. I know that some of the things I experienced might be exclusive to Orange County; however, my prayer is that all readers can connect with the humanity and authenticity behind my words.

While some men might be egotistical enough to want to be in this book (Penthouse Pete, I am talking to you), most would want nothing to do with it. For that reason, the names, professions and incriminating details about each man have been changed, or slightly altered. Also, as you read, I ask you to keep in mind that severe emotional and mental trauma tends to be an occupational hazard associated with a year of blind dates. This trauma can result in delusional behavior and memory lapses. Consequently, I have taken a few liberties to fill in the informational gaps where my memory has failed me. Some of this story is not entirely accurate; however, I am sad to report, most of it is.

But, youre in luck. Ive survived the trauma (and the drama) of it all, and Ive lived to tell. Enjoy.

So, why is that last item missing a checkmark? Let me try to explain.

I had my first kiss at the late age of 27. Call it pathetic, strategic, endearing, whatever you like. Its the honest truth. My high-school classmates voted me Most Likely to Become a Nun. On more than a few lonely nights, Ive thought they could be right. I never played Spin the Bottle (wait, what I meant to say is, the bottle never landed on me). No seven minutes in heaven. New Years Eves were spent passing out high fives and hugs to friends. Sometimes I wore my Never Been Kissed badge with pride, but most of the time I was deeply embarrassed. I cringed at slumber parties when the girl with the Barbie proportions, perfect hair and too much perkiness said, Okay, everyone share their first kiss story! I began to dread the day it might actually happen, wondering if perhaps my peak kissing years were behind me. Who wants to admit at 27 that they have never been kissed? What was wrong with me? I had near flawless teeth, nice breath, could tie a cherry stem with my tongue didnt that count for something?
