about the author

the author of this blog chooses to remain anonymous for obvious reasons.  while she is sincere and truthful in her reports of situations with her suitors, the author does not want to embarrass or alienate anyone of them.  or anyone at all.  it is a small world and she doesn’t wish to have even the most peripheral of contacts realize they have been posted on this blog.

to protect their anonymity, they have been given nicknames and we will call the author “miranda” the naive daughter from “the tempest,” her favorite work of shakespeare.

miranda is in her late, ugh, twenties.  she moved back to the washington area a year and a half ago after being away for 4 years.   she is newly divorced and hesitant to get into anything that is serious.  she is interested in finding someone who is busy with their own life, enjoys laughing, and is open about what they want, don’t want.  she is tall, attractive, smart and easy to talk to.  when a very good friend was asked to describe her in three words she was stated as being “straightforward, hilarious, loyal.” 

before miranda was involved seriously with her ex, she wasn’t involved seriously with anyone….ever.  her longest “relationship” was 6 months and that was at age 17.  miranda doesn’t pretend to be good at relationships.  she is too honest for the game and doesn’t understand the rules.  she doesn’t think she’s gonna wander the earth alone but she is cynical about the “great love.”

so, let’s get to it….because miranda doesn’t like talking about herself in third person….it is just weird.
