Pascale's Wager

Everyone makes choices based on assessments of risk and reward. I accept that every choice I make is essentially a gamble with my life. How do we learn to make good decisions?

Bzzzzt.

Game over.

Well, that was quick.

I'm thinking: I was Googled. And you know, the internet is just a wonderful, wonderful thing. But sometimes you wish that you could make information available at your own pace. Like, you know, later.

Aagh, who am I kidding? I'm just frustrated because, once again, there are not going to be any more kisses.

What does a person have to do to ensure a steady supply of the kisses? Why is this so hard to come by?

[Addendum: You know, it's really more about the abundant supply of undeployed affection that I have. You'd think there'd be someone out there who wouldn't mind being on the receiving end of it. Why does this reciprocal exchange so consistently elude me?]

Do you need a new pseudonym?

No, I need a new REAL NAME. :P

Or I need to remain a woman of mystery until such time as I'm willing to put all my cards (as it were) on the table.

So he decided he didn't like you because he Googled you and found you? His loss, not yours, though I know that's no consolation.

Anyway, grrr...

But what did Google find that scared him off, Pascale? Your lewd Craigslist Personals photos? Your arrest record on thesmokinggun.com? A macarena video from the last gay wedding you attended? Your high school valedictory speech? What?

He wouldn't have been looking for me as "Pascale Soleil."

And I suspect what he would have found is my business site and resume. From which he would have determined, among other things, that I have many more years to my name than he may have expected. I did mention that he was YOUNG, didn't I?

The reason I think that's what happened is that he made reference to my Ivy league education. Which I'm quite sure I never mentioned to him.
