Dating Statistics

-
Boy oh boy do I love a spreadsheet! I have a spreadsheet for many things in my life so I decided to create one for my dating life. 

The data below includes information from the last 10 dates I've been on (which just so happens to be all the dates I've been on in my adult life). I have been slacking on my two date monthly minimum but I am working on making up for lost time. 

My new hobby may result in quarterly updates. I am excited to see the data change over time! 

In all seriousness, the real reason I made the spreadsheet is to do some reflection on myself and my approach to dating. I am tracking my behavior, the interactions post date, interesting things I learned about the person, and notes on my own approach to dating. This spreadsheet is a tool for improvement! As a perfectionist I have made it my mission to crack the code on dating and become the world’s best potential girlfriend (kidding). I also want to show my future partner the absolute dating shit show I have gone through to meet him. (Please future boyfriend if you're out there just show up already). 


Surprisingly Facebook Dating yielded 20% of the dates I went on. Of the 2 dates from FB Dating one guy was nice and normal, the other guy was limeade guy.

As much as I dislike hiking dates (I like to go with friends or by myself), 20% of my first dates were hikes. I also had Facetime dates with people in Ogden and NYC. I recently matched with a cute Canadian but I literally said, "If I am not willing to drive through Sardine Canyon for a date, I am definitely not going to fly to Canada for one". 
The education levels of my first dates varied with most concentrated in the "bachelors degree" category. The masters degree category is also well represented. 

I found that I may have a type. 70% of my first dates have been in some kind of engineering field. I can't say I am shocked by the results. I love smart, nerdy, socially awkward, and hard working men. 



Being ex-mormon religion is something that is important to me in dating. I would love to find someone who has a similar religious background and is currently not religious. It's helpful because mormonism is very cultural and there are a lot of difference compared to other religions. 
I have gone on dates with men from around the world. I hope Hottie Australian listens to my playlist and thinks of me. Unsurprisingly, Utah is the most represented geographic area. Random Makeout Guy, Limeade Guy, and The Dog Kicker are all Utah boys.

Be afraid, very afraid of the lama-eating casserole

Yesterday we finally finished working on the front yard! And I'm very excited about it. Before we finished Monkey, and I were talking while we weeded the big planter. Monkey was telling me about a girl in her class that can mimic all the characters on Napoleon Dynamite. I was laughing and quoting Tina's moment in the casserole spotlight until mom who was a couple feet away from me asked what I was talking about and I told her," Hello mom, you can't interrupt me while I'm talking about lama-eating casserole." I had meant to say casserole eating-lama, but whatever it didn't come out that way. As you can probably guess I was taken over by my laughing. After my laughter had died down, and I could see and talk clearly again my mom said to me,"If there was a lama-eating casserole you wouldn't be allowed in a petting zoo ." She said that they would tell me,"Sorry ma'am but that casserole is a danger to our lamas so you'll have to lea...

I have said many crazy things in my life. Most of them my mom has already blogged. So I'm going to blog this one. Besides it is my story. When we were at the pool Friday my mom wanted me to pull her around the pool. I did it, then I tried to pick her up in the water. I jokingly told her that I'll have to get married in a pool so my husband could carry me over the threshold. Please remember that I was joking. Well anyway this summer we spent a lot of it at the pool. So we saw the lifeguards frequently. One of them always had his Rubik cube with him, I thought it was interesting. So when I got home I said,"Mom I want an aerobics cube." Yes I thought it was an aerobics cube. I learned quickly that I was wrong. Because my mom started laughing and told me between laughs that its Rubik. Okay so now I get it. That's only a couple of the crazy things to have escaped my mind and come out of my mouth. So I don't feel alone on this matter please share some of the crazy ...

What Happens When Daredevils Take On Crafts.......

For the past two weeks I've been eagerly awaiting my chance to learn how to quilt with the women in our Ward!!!! I went with Monkey this morning, and not only did I make a l ap quilt but I also found that I love q uilting !!!!! Because I was thinking so much about quilting I think it was hammered into my sub-conscience mind.........That's the only thing that can explain this dream, or I'm just weird. You choose. The Dream- In my dream I was running in the woods with a pile of fabric in one hand, and a sewing machine in the other. In the middle of a small clearing was a table, so I went up to the table and quickly laid out my stuff and started quilting. I was just a quarter of the way done when something crashed through the bushes behind me, one hand was still sewing while the other was hitting the creature that was trying to attack me. I kicked and hit the stuffing out of the thing, and it left battered and bruised with it's tail between it's legs. I just shook my...
