You know your love life is a mess when a friend sends you a link to a site called canadian inmates [connect.com](http://connect.com). :eek:

I mean I know I have no luck with men, which is why I had decided on becoming the crazy cat lady (or bag lady I haven’t made up my mind yet). But people around me seem to not understand I’m giving up on love. So they try to help me, as if I needed it… but seriously inmates? I’m certain there are nice guys in jail but with my luck… HA HA HA HA I’ll end up dead, stabbed to death by a crazed killer. No thank you I might want to be the crazy cat/bag lady but I want to be alive!

Hey, the world needs gun molls.

PS- What have you got against Canadians, anyway? The Felons don’t get any classier on this side of the border and almost none of them will know whose ahead in the Bruins-Blackhawks series…

\*PS- I was just teasing. Best of luck to you! For all I know the man of your dreams may be just around the corner.  
(…you do have good locks on your doors, right?)

I forget what I was looking up at the time, but Google’s ads once offered me a site that promised “Meet Bi-Polar Singles!”

Sounds to me like this friend isn’t. Tell your buds that you are waiting for your man to arrive, but Amazon still has him back-ordered. If they don’t take the hint, add rudeness.
