Online Dating and the New Zodiac
A mere seven days into fulfilling my pledge to register for a dating site, I’m already squirming. Having axed Jdate after browsing through 200 profiles without a desire to click for more, I turned to OK Cupid. One of the first screen names to turn up in my search was “pussiologist” from Burbank, which I can only hope has something to do with a love of cats. I also found “lawnmuncher,” which must mean he’s a gardener. Next was “laughing Pisces,” and actually I felt bad for him, because of course, he’s no longer a Pisces, but probably an Aquarius. FYI, there were over 40 men who identified themselves as “Scorpio,” and now I don’t know if that reflects the new Zodiac or not. Maybe I should be adventurous, and find myself an Ophiuchus.

Someone told me that the new zodiac only works on people who were born after 2009…whether or not this is true or not, I’m going with that idea. As I’ve said before, I’m a Gemini and a Gemini I shall remain.
p.s. good luck with your dating quest. My resolution is not going very well, at my new job (where I’m supposed to be brave) I’m introduced to a new employee the first question for me is : “Do you have children?” followed by the equally inappropriate, “Are you married?” One woman even asked me if I was a lesbian. But I kept my mouth shut after she went on and on about her kid who was in jail! Trying to be brave, Wendy, trying!!!
