Does your Pumpkin have legs?

Last night as I sat there and watched reruns of Sex and the City on TV, this commercial comes on and it shows polaroids of happy couples together, some engaged, some married, etc. and then this voice over goes "Learn How to Find the Right Person in 90 days". Reg_cover1Umm... okay, now, is it just me or do you think that's odd too? I mean, like, are we in a hurry these days that we need to put a deadline to dating? and we need to read a book on "how to" find the right person too? I mean, does love no longer come natural to us anymore in 2005? what's with the advertisements these days? I don't mind about the whole online dating, I mean, its great and I'm all for it, so don't get me wrong. I think it might even be better than just meeting a random person at a nightclub if you ask me - at least you can learn more about them thru their writing, their profiles, background etc. I do believe in physical attraction, yes and that's important but I also believe that an ugly personality will make someone really ugly too even if he's the hottest man alive.

I remember very clearly that it was a Match.com commercial ... man, I thought they could've done better than that. 90 days? I mean, they makes it sound like we're running out of time and we're about to die soon so I've only got 90 days before I'm doomed. Or is it that in our society today, we are all just WAY TOO busy and don't even have time to date and take things slowly anymore. 90 days? Maybe I'm being too judgemental here but heck, I thought it was pretty lame to be advertising their product this way. I couldn't stop laughing every time it came on. And I swear, I must've saw that commercial 4 times during every commercial break of just one episode of Sex and the City.

Pumpkin_dark_sm1_2On another random note - so yesterday afternoon as I pulled up to my drive-way I noticed that one out of my 3 little pumpkin that was sitting nicely on my front porch is ...MISSING! yes, missing, it's gone, dissappeared, and there's only 2 left! I swear I had 3, I'm not pulling a Dory here. I purposely bought 3 little ones since we've got a family of 3 here in this household. Okay, now I don't want to be questioning this but - DID MY NEIGHBOR STEAL MY PUMPKIN? I mean, of all things to steal, a pumpkin? I can't imagine where else it could have gone, I went nuts looking behind bushes outside near where I placed it, nothing. Could it have been a very strong cat that just came and took it away? Was it my Gardener? or did the mail delivery guy just decide to take it home with him? I'm still wondering where my little pumpkin went.

Each day I drive down my own street, I look at neighbor's front porch to see if I see a familar pumpkin. I wish I wrote a name on it or drew something on it so I can identify it, I didn't so I can't. Even if I did see it at my neighbor's porch, I have no evidence of it being mine. Argh. Where did it go? Its not about the pumpkin anymore, its about the stealing... its about the mystery of the missing pumpkin now.

Maybe tomorrow morning, I'll see my pumpkin walk back on my porch. Maybe someone took it home and decide to carve it for me and will put it back up there before Halloween. Or maybe my Pumpkin grew legs by sitting outside in the sun the past 2 weeks.

Has anyone seen my pumpkin?
