It's quickly becoming clear that having a website with my name on it could be....problematic. <br /><br />Discussing the details of my Seinfeldian dating life has always been fun, but Google is going to get me in trouble sooner or later.<br /><br />You see, people, and women in particular, are sneaky weasels. <br /><br />They investigate things..It's extremely common to "Google" someone before you go on a date. That used to be fine, because there are thousands of Todd Allens. Somehow though, out of 9,470,000 results for my name, I have become #9. Finding me on the internet has become the online equivalent of finding a Starbucks, and when is the last time you saw a Starbucks on a date! Huh?! Tell me that!<br /><br />I'm screwed, or rather if my dates start looking me up, I'm not. This will not stand.<br /><br />So until I remedy this problem, my stories are going to be less timely. I'm imposing a post-mortem rule on all dating related posts. You won't hear the story until the girl is gone for good. It's the only way I can keep telling them in the traditional/non-PC manner, without being stabbed in my sleep.<br /><br />Sucks too.. I had a really funny/good weekend. All I can say for now is that step #2 from the getting dumped guide is complete, and went *much* better than anticipated given my current lack of hair.<br /><br />I'll try and remember some oldies/goodies until the time lag works itself out.
