Does anyone want to marry me based on my audition?

I know it sounds a little crazy. A lot crazy. But I just thought I'd put it out there. In case we run out of topics here.

P.S. And no I didn't post this just to drive people to my audition. Who does THAT anymore anyway? Sheesh. Silly cynics.

...I'm filing for divorce now that your photo's up. Problem is, mine is one of the only states that doesn't have no-fault divorce. So I have to prove gross negligence or cruelty. HE could prove that easily about me (I haven't been faithful about doing the laundry or cooking nutritious meals since PRTQ launched, and my teenage daughters know enough to groan when they see MOM looking at that website with the green banner at the top) so then I'd lose custody, and so on...

Maybe... could you wait until my kids grow up? Hell, no, then you'd be more interested in THEM than me.... fuggedaboudit.

It's your house by the sea.

Very funny how your daughters groan when they see the website with the green banner at the top. I could see myself in their position doing the same thing.

Goodnight. See you tomorrow possibly.

Yikes, that's the third marriage proposal I've had this week. If this keeps up I'm going to have to ask my husband to help me sort through the mail.

Good luck. It's a jungle out there. But that did get my attention.

My dad is a 60-something year-old bachelor who does a ton of on-line dating. He just informed me he dated 9 different women at the same time last month. I couldn't handle the logistics necessary to pull that off. Apparently, neither could he. Anyway... he always refuses to respond to the ladies who inquire about him, but don't upload their photo ... which brings me to your proposition. Where's your photo? Don't you know how to internet date? Geesh. Ok. So, this is a clever ploy to get us to listen to you again. You've tried stirring the pot in several different ways here. And, I'm starting to think you might be some kind of a marketing genius. Read: lots of praise. But, still, your hopes are shot without an honest head-shot. I finally uploaded one where my face wasn't obscured after realizing I wasn't going to be stalked. Shoot. I'm about 200 miles away from the nearest contestant. I feel pretty safe here. But what's your story? No photo. No deal.

The photo is up, my shallow friends. And so is the jig I'd venture to say.

See, that wasn't so hard, was it? Nice one, by the way. Is your room painted orange? My dining room is orange. I love it. Liquid sunshine. Well, now plastered sunshine, I guess.

I rent this place. Actually moving at the end of next month. Just bought a condo.

Anyway, thanks. I think you're quite cute yourself. Oh geez, I hope the judges aren't reading this. And I certainly hope they're not gagging.

Ha! Yes, let's keep them from puking at all cost. Even if we have to sacrifice and postpone the engagement -- it would probably be for the best. ... (theatrical sigh!)

I just looked at your photo. What a sweet face you have. I'll shut up before your husband comes after me and my cereal supply.

...a wife.

A housewife to be exact. I already have a husband, and he's very cute, but totally useless. (hee!)

I'd love to have someone cook dinner and go grocery shopping and clean the house and then make me a cup of tea after the kids are in bed and have a long chatty-chat about the day.

Why, oh why did polygamy go out of style?

It's one of the songs I sing in the upcoming country classic stage show, "Honky Tonk Laundry."
(I'm kidding about the "classic," all the rest is true - summer dinner-theater fare ;-)

This just isn't going well for you so far. Maybe we single aging female NPR fans are just too cynical by far. We'll put you on match and see if we can get a more enthusiastic response from the Fox-watching public.

If only GF bread were equally palatable.

Back to the topic - I'm sure that anyone out there who is ready willing and able to marry you based on your audition is crying into their Wheaties now that you have admitted you're just a tease and already married. Those wedding ring un-suntans don't who on radio, you know. Bad thingon, bad!

I'm not married or middle aged. I was listing traits that I found attractive. Of course I was being sarcastic. Which always goes over well in an e-mail. : )

though now it seems to be defined as being 60, when at 42, I probably am really about half way through. But I got my little red convertible pahse over a few years ago.
