Someone posted a 2002 Accord SE with 172,000 miles for $1,500. I saw the ad a little over half an hour after it was posted and messaged the owner immediately. I asked a couple of questions and then asked to see the car.

He said "Tomorrow."

Did he want to sell the car or not?!

I asked "How early," he said "8am?" and we agreed on a place, but last night I went to look at the ad again and he had sold it.

The inside was dirty, but the outside was a 9/10.

That just seems to be how everything goes for me. I matched up with a nice-seeming woman on Facebook Dating.

I would write "Lady," but cursing is one of her hobbies...

On Sunday I invited her to dinner last night.

She brought up breakfast, so I invited her to breakfast, but I couldn't get an answer.

She started talking about after 4, so I finally tried to commit her to dinner, but she wouldn't answer. This continued until 3-something yesterday when she said that she may need to work.

Now she is married.
