So much for Labor Day!

I just put in about 6 hours for work. The good thing is I got to work from home, but I would have rathered been able to spend time with family or maybe go to a cookout. I took Marley out for a walk and I saw my secretly favorite neighbor again. He is this little old man that religiously checks his mail box at the same time everyday. It is so sad because I never see him get anything. It's one of those communial mail boxes where a whole section of homes all come to get their mail. Well he goes to his mail box and carefully opens the little door and then he does an initial look and when he doesn't see anything there he leans down and looks again AND puts his hand all the way in the box just in case. Once he realizes nothing is there he seems so deflated. As pitiful as it sounds, I just realized it kind of reminds me of myself with this whole eharmony thing. Oh geeze! That's terrible! Here I am feeling bad for Mr. Neighbor and I am just like him! So here is the scoop. I matched with this guy named Mark and he seems really great. We went through all the series of questions and made it to what they call open communication. We sent a couple of messages and now it's his turn again to respond to my last message and nothing! I haven't received a response in 4 days!! I keep obsessively checking and then I'm so disappointed when nothing is there. Yep... just like the old man! I'm trying to calm my nerves about it by convincing myself it is labor day weekend. Maybe he went out of town or something. Who knows. It's not as if we have made a real connection yet. I guess I am just hoping for one to develop. I signed up for 3 months of eharmony so if Mark is a no go, maybe there is someone else out there. I will just have to be patient and see!
