Online dating update 6:
It isn't going well because I can't go out on a date when I make $234 a week. I've been planting seeds here and there, but I'm not really getting many responses. I think half the problem is that I'm really not seeing many potential dates with good profiles that I connect with. There was 1 woman, she was 42, I felt our profiles sync'd but nothing came of it. :-/

1) I need a better picture of myself
2) It would look better on paper if I said I had a better job

All i said basically is that I'm an author but I have a day job to pay the bills, and left it at that. There was one other profile that interested me, she was definitely a reader, I mean, no one casually takes up Ulysses for some light reading. It's one off the toughest reads in the "Western Canon". She hasn't responded back... but, usually they all wait until Sunday night. So we'll see!
