Guys -- if you're doing the online dating thing: not only should you NOT send an overly cheesy e-mail as your initial e-mail... you should not then cut and paste that very same e-mail to multiple women!
My friend A and I just realized that we each got this exact same e-mail from the same guy -- I referenced him some time ago, Red Flag Guy. Please comment if you've received this same e-mail as well! (next thing you know, he'll be e-mailing us about his bank account in Nigeria)
Hmmmm, someone would make my week if I heard from her, hint, hint:)
Those eyes and that smile are doing a serious number on me...!!
So listen, I figure we can elope and then have a small ceremony for our nearest and dearest...Is Paris too cliched for the elopement?:)
Beyond Smitten,
[Cheesy Guy]
Hilarious.
I have some guy updates for you, but it will have to wait til tomorrow. Hint: I'm starting to like two different guys, and am feeling a bit flummoxed over it.
Date #136: Fabulous. Lots of fun, great conversation, wonderful chemistry. Drinks, dinner, lots of smooching while we walked along the street, or sat on a park bench, or rode in a taxi. He texted the next day, then called just to chat the next night. For an hour. A rarity indeed. I'm stuck on a blog name for him, so let's just call him Smooch for now.
The surprise for me: I've mentioned that a lot of my exes have had more or less the same look -- thick, curly hair, very Jewish-looking. (from the "David / Steven store", as dubbed by my buddy Brian) While Smooch is Jewish, it stops there -- he has more hair on his face than he does on top of his head. (but certainly not in a gone-crazy Joaquin Phoenix kind of way -- no big, furry beard here, thankfully) He's not my "usual" type, but I don't care -- I think he's adorable. (and smart, funny, vivacious, etc.) We're both going to be out of town for the holiday weekend, but hopefully we'll get together next week.
And -- he also has an old Jewish man's name -- again, it doesn't matter to me a whit. Rather, I find it somewhat endearing.
Date #137: Not so fabulous. Blog name "Wallace", because he reminds me of this guy:
I tried really hard to like him -- he's smart and semi-interesting -- but it just wasn't there for me. "Nebbish-y" was the word that came to mind. After an hour or so of milking my drink, I think I sent a clear message that there was no interest by announcing just how tired I was, and that I needed to call it a night.
Talked to a new guy tonight -- let's call him The Young'Un for now - he's five years my junior. We've been emailing on and off for a few months now, and might finally get around to meeting in person next week. This was a first for me: Young'Un and I talked via video IM tonight -- kind of surreal to talk to a potential date that way.

This past weekend I had a first date with a guy I'll call Smarty Pants -- I had a hard time thinking of an appropriate blog name for him, and I'm not sure if this will stick. This name is meant in a positive way -- he's certainly not a know-it-all, just struck me as a very interesting, intelligent guy.
Over drinks, we talked about topics as diverse as religion, family, and how your tastes in the kind of people you date change as you get older – and every so often he would say that he was surprised that we were talking about this on a first date – but it was just that comfortable.
After a few hours of talking (gradually sitting closer to one another), when he just went in for a kiss out of the blue? I liked that. He's an excellent kisser.
All very nice, but I’m not having any expectations at the moment. Talked about getting together again soon, but made no solid plans -- we'll see if I hear from him.
UPDATE: he called in a timely manner, and we talked for nearly an hour -- a rare thing with guys these days! We made plans for this weekend, and (another rarity) he actually had some solid suggestions for restaurants based on what we'd talked about the last time.
I have to admit, I really like doing bar / restaurant research, and have found that I usually have better ideas of where to go than most guys I date. This time? I may have met my match.
I have another date before then. I can't help but think that Date #113 (the next one) may have some tough competition...
Even if I didn't have This Guy from last night on my mind, I wouldn't have been into tonight's date, Saturday Night Guy. Nice enough guy, just not my type.
Which made me think: if I'd met This Guy via an online dating site, would we have clicked? With internet dating, there's so much pressure -- if you don't click in that first hour, forget it. I can barely remember how the casual chatting developed into attraction with TG (OK, blame the margaritas for that). I wasn't "boyfriend shopping", I was just enjoying being there. He just happened to be especially interesting... and cute.
Little side note about tonight's date with Saturday Guy -- days ago, we had decided that tonight we'd meet at a new wine bar that neither of us had been to. About an hour before the date, I checked a map, and saw that the bar was RIGHT around the corner from This Guy's apartment. Not a good way to start off, with TG possibly seeing me on a date with another guy, a mere 16 hours after leaving his apartment.
I needed a good excuse for changing the venue, so I called Saturday Guy and mentioned that since it was such a nice evening out, why didn't we go somewhere with outdoor seating? He agreed, and I suggested a bar that was a bit further away. After an hour or so, I mentioned how tired I was (true), and headed home.
This Guy and I made plans to get together tomorrow afternoon -- I hope that still happens, and that he doesn't succumb to the epidemic of the Date Cancellers.
Date ideas aren’t hard to come by in Atlanta. Georgia is known for many things, including the fact that it is almost impossible to run out of ideas for places to go on dates in Atlanta. Obviously, there are the well-known and exciting places to take a date, like an Atlanta Braves game, Olympic Centennial Park, or the Georgia Aquarium. However, there are numerous places that couples can go, that are off the beaten path, but are just as fun and exciting as the more well-known venues.
Agatha’s – A Taste of Mystery: Agatha’s is dinner theatre with a twist. The audience participates in the comedy murder mystery that takes place in between each of the five dinner courses.
ATL-Cruzers: Take a date on a historical tour of Atlanta in an electric car.
Piedmont Park : Nestled between 10th Avenue and Piedmont Avenue, this lovely park makes a great picnic spot.
Dialogue in the Dark: This highly unusual but interesting activity is a great way to really get to know someone. During an exhibition, the blind guides will lead guests in an environment that is totally dark, encouraging them to rely on their other senses.
Martinis and IMAX: Enjoy a thoroughly unique experience at the Fernbank Museum’s version of the Friday night movie.
Starlight Six Drive-In Theatre: Simply put, this place is a treat for anyone.
Dad’s Garage Theatre: Featuring local talent for improv and scripted shows, this comedy club has been a hit since its creation sixteen years ago.
Andretti Indoor Karting & Games: Couples can have loads of fun racing each other on the indoor race track and racing to the top of the indoor rock wall.
Sun Dial Restaurant: Perched, and slowly revolving, on top of the Westin Peachtree Plaza, diners can get a 360-degree view of downtown Atlanta.
The list of ideas for places to go on dates in Atlanta is almost endless. Couples can stick to the traditional dinner and a movie, or explore the night life at Underground Atlanta. It really depends on if a couple wants a romantic, quiet atmosphere, or if a loud, rocking good time is desired.
Sometimes what is needed to inject a little spark into both new and old relationships is to venture out to the less known establishments and enjoy the unique experiences that they can offer.

C’est depuis les limites, les confins et peut-être les marges que cette deuxième journée d’études du collectif ApprEs se propose d’interroger les rapports entre espaces et apprentissages.
Il s’agit de comprendre comment des espaces qui ne sont pas particulièrement ou pas spécifiquement conçus et équipés pour être utilisés à des fins d’apprentissages scolaires peuvent néanmoins tenir lieu d’école.
Il peut s’agir :
- de temps d’apprentissage en dehors des salles de classe : couloirs, cours, usages d’espaces proches (jardins, parcs, forêts, promenades sensibles, déambulations urbaines, etc.) ou liés à des mobilités d’enfants/adolescent.e.s entre divers lieux scolaires et non scolaires (dispositifs d’inclusion scolaire par exemple) ;
- de séjours en structures d’accueil (classe découverte, classe verte, terrains d’aventures, etc.) ;
- d’ateliers ou autres dispositifs « apprenants » développés dans le cadre des politiques éducatives locales, de politiques de développement territorial ou dans des structures dont la fonction principale n’est pas scolaire (« l’école en prison », l’école pour les enfants hospitalisés en soins de longue durée, etc.) ;
- d’initiatives militantes liées à des mobilisations diverses selon les territoires et les pays (mouvements de soutien aux paysans sans terre, soutien aux familles en situation migratoire illégale, pédagogie sociale, etc.).
Quel que soit le cas de figure, comment les élèves apprennent-ils et qu’apprennent-ils dans ces espaces non initialement et/ou non spécifiquement dédiés aux apprentissages ?
Qu’est-ce qui produit « de l’école » ou cet « effet d’école » alors même que quelque chose dans le tableau ne cadre pas avec l’image commune de l’école ? Comment, comme chercheur, comme praticien-chercheur ou praticien réflexif, montrer cette école qui se fait dans des espaces autres que celui de la salle de classe ?
Comment ces espaces deviennent riches en termes d’apprentissages précisément parce qu’ils ne sont pas des espaces « scolaires » ?
Qu’il s’agisse de projets soutenus ou financés par des institutions, de programmes militants ou d’initiatives individuelles plus modestes, que les décalages créés paraissent modestes ou soient radicalement opérés, que les initiateurs s’inscrivent dans des mouvances pédagogiques ou qu’ils revendiquent le tâtonnement et le bricolage, ce qui nous intéressera sera le mouvement, le déplacement, l’intervention ; ce en quoi ces « régimes spatiaux » changent quelque chose aux apprentissages ou aux regards sur les apprentissages.

As easy as it is to vilify online dating, not everything about it sucks.
For example, you actually get to weed through mass amounts of people in a short period of time looking for what are deal breakers and deal makers for you personally. Not so easy to do at a bar when you are shouting over music and avoiding the REALLY drunk girl’s drink being spilled all over your back.
Some people are actually looking and posting online because they want what they say they want — a relationship with a quality person. Its not easy since there are a lot of…ummm…”non-truth tellers” out there, but there are also a lot of very transparent and honest profiles where you can see a glimpse behind the cute dimples into his or her actual personality and priorities.
Here are some quick tips to look for in a good profile:
1. Take a look at the “handle” the person has chosen. If its something along the lines of “playeronlyforyou” then you may want to skip ahead to the “marathonerinATX” profile. One says pretty clearly that they are online to get some nooky and the other expresses an honest identity and possible shared interest. (they may also want the non-committed nooky — but then, that’s the risk you take with any date grin)
2. Take a look at the interests and activities — they can show you a lot about how a person approaches the world. For example — if they have checked off every interests box from housecleaning to running and everything in between — you may want to look at the rest of the profile to see if they are just exuberant and high on life or if they are casting a wide net in hopes to pick up anyone.
3. Read the whole profile. Yes, people can be REALLY long winded at times, but the great thing about the long winded daters — you get a more complete picture of what is important enough for them to say to virtual strangers. If there isn’t a whole lot of info there, you may be dealing with a “clicker” or “cut-n-paster” (they are notorious for the wink and run or the cut and paste emails to everyone) OR you could be dealing with someone who values their privacy and will not only want you to as well but will respect your privacy in return. Look for consistency.
4. Pictures…ah pictures. Look for the current, clear and non-photoshopped kinds. Some people will post LOTS of pictures and some only one or two — both approaches tell you how they want to be approached. If they have 15 pictures and only 2 paragraphs — this is someone who knows they are attractive and want you to notice that as well. If they have 2 pictures and 15 paragraphs — they want you to actually be a compatible match for what they are interested in. (ie. if they wrote about fitness and health or movies and music or school and family — you now know what they want you to pay attention to.) If their pictures tell a story in and of themselves — read that story. Are they with friends in every shot? Are they in places all over the world? Are they shaking hands with famous types? Are they engaged in activities in every shot? Read that photographic story and you have some important information to digest.
5. Look at what they want in a match. Do they specify a few particular religions or say any and all? Do they want only “slender” and “athletic” or do they run the gamut from “slender” to “stocky” or “curvy” or “large?” Do they have an wide age bracket or a small one and are you inside it? Ethnic preferences? All of these things are important to notice if you want to get a return email and will tell you again, what is really important to that dater. For example, if they have no preference on the religion part, they are a good fit for someone who also has no preference. If they single out one or two — they are going to seriously look for those on your profile as well.
There are more tips to be had — but surely some of you have tips of your own. Would love to hear the comments from the folks who have braved the online dating scene. A quick word of advice…check into the reputation of the site you are signing up on as each has it’s own predominant personality…for example — adultfriendfinder — all sex all the time. match.com — hook ups and hotties. Chemistry and Eharmony — serious relationship seekers.

Things might be OK with New Guy after all – here’s hoping.
It was a small, simple gesture – just a little gift he gave to me. Nothing expensive – not at all – but it was very sweet and thoughtful, and it was something he knew I’d like. I’m still touched.
It had been nearly a week since I’d seen him last, and in the back of my mind, I went into our date feeling that things were somehow different. By the time we said goodnight, however, it seemed that we were back in that happy place.
A bit of forced slowness this month – we won’t have much of a chance to see each other over the next few weeks, as we’re both busy with work, and we both have a few business trips approaching. I’m one of the most impatient people I know, but even I can acknowledge that taking it slowly can only be a good thing.
Then there’s Super Cutie. We had that second date – I went into it expecting (and truthfully, somewhat hoping) that there would be no connection. But we had a lovely time, and I have a feeling we’ll see each other again. Admittedly, I don’t feel that same immediate zing that I felt from the start with New Guy – but really, how much importance should one give the zing?
Incidentally – these two guys have the same name. Different variations on the same name (ala, “Phil” and “Philip”) – but yes, same name. This can be a good thing – but the possibility for a misstep is there. Let’s just say that I’m VERY careful about eyeing the guy’s name before I send out that e-mail or text message.
Venez croiser lors de cette journée les enjeux éducatifs liés à la biodiversité, à la santé, au changement climatique et à la résilience des territoires. Les visites sur le terrain, les retours d’expériences, les interventions permettront d’identifier les freins et les leviers lors de la mise en place de ce type de projets.

Every year is the same. The holiday sneaks up on me. I mean, I knew it was coming, but it still somehow caught me by surprise. Suddenly there it was! It had caught me unawares and I was, yet again, unprepared. Somehow I thought this year would be different. I even did a little extra legwork early on, but it is still the same old story. That’s right, I’ve been caught unprepared by Halloween!
Halloween is truly the sneaky stress holiday. It seems all innocent and fun. Candy and masks and pumpkins and all. Right up until people start inviting you to their parties. This year I’ve been invited to no less than four. That’s right, FOUR Halloween parties. This presents some interesting problems, beyond my simple inability to be more than one place at a time.
First of all, I have a single gal admission. I hate going to parties alone. There are very few parties that I am comfortable going to on my own. Of the four I was invited to, one and only one is comfortable alone. Second, these aren’t regular parties, they are costume parties of course. So the question of what to wear is now multiplied by about a million. Halloween costumes are sized stupidly, fit horribly, and make you look ridiculous no matter what you do. First there is the desperate dig through the closet to see what’s in there. It was a combination of “made me look like a lumpy sack” and “might not fit anymore and I’m too proud to find out”. So a new costume had to be purchased. Fine. That took about a week of my time and probably a few years off my life. But now I have a costume. Then something else happened.
Before I even knew it was coming, I had invited LC to the one party I was planning on attending alone. There it was… the biggest step I’ve taken with any guy in a long time. First of all, I planned something two weeks in advance with a guy. Which may not seem big but please note, it assumes said guy will be around for longer than two weeks. A huge assumption for me to be making, that is… if you know me. Second, I invited him to a place full of my friends. A whole bunch of them. And thirdly, the first time they meet him, he will be dressed ridiculously. Oh sure, we all will. But there it is. An obstacle nonetheless.
And so it is that this seemingly innocent holiday has become as stressful as the ones to come. He doesn’t have a costume yet. I have to tell my friends I’m bringing someone. He doesn’t know it yet but they’re kind of protective. Oh and he’s short and his costume may or may not involve lederhosen. My date will be judged while looking vaguely like a leprauchan. I really need to start thinking these things through.
And if you think this is bad? Just wait until Thanksgiving. Oh boy.

In regards to the hiking ... I always list that I like camping, hiking and doing things outdoors. I have learned to ask someone to clarify their idea of those things, because my ideas are sometimes vastly different than theirs. For example, I like tent camping and some guys have never camped in anything but a RV.

If I was doing it again, I would totally do it online. I like the connection i get and one person I consider one of my best friends I met online way back in middle school. I know how awkward and hard it is to meet adult friends and couple friends and family friends.....I can't imagine what its like dating these days. I married my husband right out of college when life was simple and easy. I can't imagine trying to date, jus trying to make friends is hard enough as a parent!! Good luck Dan, you are a great guy and I'm sure the right person is out there for you. Just be patient. And when you aren't looking....that's when you find it. When you are comfortable with you, and while you acknowledge it would be nice to have someone, you don't need and you love your life as is and are happy with your circumstances. Then out of nowhere, BAM! You'll meet somebody. I have faith you will! :o) I've always wanted to go on a dating site just to see what its like, but figured that was incredibly inappropriate since I'm married!Oh....and have you ever noticed how awkward is such an awkward looking and sounding word? Funny :)

Friends just got married- they met 'the hard way'- online. I think you and I should date. You know- from a far- and online only- oh wait-- that's just like all my friends these days....
