About Me

Hello, my name is Jaymie. I am not one of those sappy women whose life goals and ambitions revolve around meeting Mr. Right, getting married, and making babies. But to be honest I have never been particularly good at relationships. The younger version of myself had hoped that I could get it right by now. But, I DIDNT!!!

I remain hopeful and would still like to meet a great guy that thinks the world of me and that I adore. I would still like to find my happily ever after.


I have decided to continue of the roller coaster of dating. I will go on at least one new date a month in an attempt to meet the right guy. If I don’t there will be consequences.

This challenge started in the month of August and will continue until one of two things happens a) I actually meet the right guy b) a string of terrible monthly dates makes me reconsider my stance on relationships and the idea of being the crazy cat lady becomes more appealing. Both possibilities will ensure endless humor.


Thank you for joining me on my adventure.

Inspiration Strikes


I cannot take credit for coming up with the idea for Date of the Month. An amazing woman that I happened to sit next to at a painting class shared the idea with me.

See, I am slightly addicted to Groupon.  What can I say some of the things on there look fantastic.  A while ago I bought a groupon for a company called Canvas and Wine.  They do painting classes at restaurants and bars.  I tried to get a friend to go with me but had no luck and decided to go alone.  I found an empty seat in the front next to another woman there alone.  Her first name starts with an S so I will just refer to her as S.   S and I started talking about other Canvas and Wine classes she had attended, work, and then dating.  We shared some stories about our adventures in datingland and then S shared with me the brilliant Date of the Month idea and some of her past experience with Date of the Month.  I think it was a certain amount of fate that led me to that specific Canvas and Wine event, sitting down right next to her, and talking about dating with a new acquaintance. 

The idea to blog the events came from another friend.  Her first name starts with the letter M so I will call her M.  My sister, M, and I were getting drinks one night.  The topic of dating often comes up when single women get together.  M shared some wonderfully terribly stories that were quite amusing.  I explained what I was doing to stay in the game and shared the Date of the Month idea with her.   M thought it was brilliant and encouraged me to blog it.   

So while I know this sounds odd since you probably instantly think of the sexual fetish but I would like to thank S & M for sharing all their great ideas and stories with me.  You gals are amazing.
