  • Intimacy; or A Trip to the Dentist

    I went to the dentist today. There are few things less pleasant than a rude thirty minutes spent in a dentist's chair having someone scrape at your teeth with a wiry metal instrument. But there is a secret pleasure in going to the dentist; one that I can remember relishing from my earliest visits as a little kid. It's the experience of seeing someone else's face at such close distance, hovering over mine simultanesouly anonymous and unsettlingly intimate. It's hard not to be drawn in by the chance to stare into someone's eyes just a few inches away with little or no understanding of who they are outside of the most basic professional identity.

  • Welcome to the first day of school

    This feels like the first day of school when you're supposed to stand up and talk about yourself and the other kids decide within two seconds if they're going to like you or not, usually based on the clothes you're wearing. Micky Mouse t-shirt out, horrible (mini) cleavage bearing shirt in. I've learned along the way that when more than three people don't like you, you're doing something right. Or you're just an ass.

  • One small step for man...

    Well here we go again!

    As some of you may already know, I come to you from way the hell over on the other side of this site, having been a stalwart blogger at the now defunct 'blog-a-log'. To this point I might add that I was the 'last man standing' so to speak, which fills me no end with a great sense of satisfaction.

    Over these past seven months, I've pontificated, ruminated, and occasionally masturbated - verbally that is - on the topics of relationships, sex and dating. In the process, my views have shifted and swayed but ultimately I feel there's still a lot left to explore. Thus, I've decided to do said exploration right here on - DATE MACHINE!!

    As it was explained to me by the editor-at-large, this forum will be a companion blog of sorts to the 'Dating Confessions' section, where WE the bloggers will tie in your thoughts/confessions with our own personal experience on the topics at hand, namely - relationships, sex and dating.

    Sheesh...deja vu!

    As I'm a man who likes to come prepared, I dutifully checked out the confessions section at length, and was somewhat surprised to discover the sheer amount of eloquence, humor, candor and all out writing chops some of you possess out there. As a writer, this affords me a great opportunity as the source material seems endless as well as being so competently articulated and defined.

    With this being said, I must say it's with a great deal of excitement that I set forth into this new environment, as I believe it's truly one that could foster a great discourse and hopefully be very entertaining in the process. So let's take these first steps together shall we? Onward, upward and excelcior...

    Pleased to meet you all.

    Zeitgeisty.

OUR BLOGGERS

Zeitgeisty

I'm an existentialist trapped in the body of a rational humanist. I've got a penchant for misanthropy and a flair for the obvious. I'm quick with a joke or a light up your smoke, but there's someplace that I'd rather be. I'm Zeitgeisty, pleased to meet me I'm sure.

Airheadgenius

I am a fish out of water - an opinionated cheeky smiling English chick in a land of larger than life Americans. I don't understand the culture. I don't understand asking if we're exclusive. I don't understand this weird practice of decapitating penises. Some days I am definitely MILF material. Other days I feel more like the material on the inside of yer grannys' handbag.

Looking for: A stunning socialist with a propensity to pick winning lottery numbers

amboabe

I'm a smart ass writer who'll argue your ear off, hold your hand close, and tell you the truth whenever. I'm a fool and a hero, a confessional soul, and lover of life in every conceivably absurd way that it can come. I also paint my toenails.

Slightly neurotic, over-analyzing girl..err, woman, with too much charm for the average person to handle. Has a fondness for red wine, cheap beer and a good time.
