Was It Something I Said?

I had to borrow the title for this entry from the old Richard Pryor comedy album but I have found the phrase "was it something I said?" applies to just about every segment of my life and just about all of my blogs as well.

Since I am once again single, I have started trolling a lot of the dating websites to see what is out there. Evidently no one is looking for a middle age retail lifer who has no life, no future, and no hope. I started chatting with a couple of different women and both were reasonably attractive and they both asked me where I worked. I was honest and told them and as soon as I answered that question, I never heard from either one of them again. I guess I am going to have to take my picture in front of an expensive house in a nice neighborhood, leaning on my friend's sports car, with a stack of $100 bills on the hood of the car to continue any future conversations.

I thought I was doing well to have worked for the same company for 28 years and to have weathered numerous economic recessions. I have all my hair (even though it is gray), I am reasonably intelligent, and I have a good sense of humor and an easy going personality. I guess I will just have to apply that to all of the women I work with.
