It's a small world after all....

I'm always commenting that Denver is small. Small, small, small...and we all tend to hang in the same circles. This can be lots of fun when navigating the ex-BF scene. Luckily, I don't have too many of those exes that are painful/embarassing/horrible to run into around town. However, there is always the chance that you might run into an ex while dropping off a current fling in the morning...because why wouldn't they live in the same building??? I digress...

A recent story that I enjoy involves my new roommate, actually. She mentioned she was thinking of trying onilne dating so I gave her two words of warning. 1. people are mostly weird. 2. You will date someone that has previously dated a friend/co-worker/roommate/etc. It's Denver. Denver is that small.

I begin to tell her about this blog and about some of my finer moments of online dating. I was explaining the akward, uncomfortable, and strange texts I was recieving from "Are you Naughty?" (see below) when she blurted out..."WAIT, OMG, you know ____!" You see, as I was telling the story she kept thinking it all sounded familiar until coming to that lightbulb moment where we dicovered that "Are you Naughty?" is her old roommate, the one who was horribly gross and was asked to leave (kicked out)...thus making the room available for me.

Yep, folks, Denver really is THAT SMALL. Denver can be small in very good ways too, like this past weekend when I ran into two kids from my old neighborhood, a friend from Junior League and my new roommate totally unplanned and all at the same bar.

The adventure continues! I wonder who I'll run into next...
