Studio City - Dating on Speed

The dating diaries of a single gal in studio city. This time its speed dating.

Another day another pile of dates to sift through on my Studio City man quest. This time speed dating. Surely a 3 minute window is enough time to meet and interview a potential mate, right?

Actually, yes it means you get a super concentrated dose of crazy and can cast them off in one fell swoop.

One guy told me he had 5 kids and is a recovering sex addict. Yes, the wink you gave me tells me that you are a "sure thing" and no I really don't want to be Baby Momma number 6. He even busted this little nugget out in the first 60 seconds. Makes for an awkward remaining 2 minutes of small talk. Really where do you go from there? NEXT!

What no one tells you is that these events are really loud forcing you to shout and that your throat gets really sore. I should have brought a drink to help my voice and just help me through the night. I'm sure it would have been better with a champagne buzz or speed. Dating on speed? There's an event people might attend.
