Dan continued the does-not-know-me-in-real-life blogger conversation with his five questions:
You seem like you really enjoy writing, why and who got you started blogging?
Thank you, Dan. I DO enjoy writing. I started an anonymous blog on blogger WAY back in 2002. Seriously. Prior to that, I kept a handwritten journal. After one particular weekend in Chicago, my boyfriend at the time thought he was being slick at sneaking a peek. I flipped. Then started posting somewhere he couldn’t find me. Online — makes perfect sense, right? Little did I know that he installed some sort of tracker software on the computer, and he was reading it anyway. Then I utilized the blog to stay in touch with friends — and have a portal for all my pictures for them to view.
Obviously, things have only spun completely out of control from there.
What do you love most / least about Cleveland
Least: basketball. Sorry, just not a fan of the Cavs or otherwise. And I’m certainly on no Lebron bandwagon either.
Most: that you can find and do anything here that you can in any other major city. But it’s cheaper, less crowded and more fun as a result.
Favorite watering hole in Cleveland
Dive bar: Kenilworth Tavern in Lakewood.
Feeling like dressing up a LIL bit more: Bier Markt.
All perty with makeup and heels: Velvet Tango Room.
Anything beyond that just makes me really uncomfortable.
If you had 1 wish and It was not money related what would it be?
I wish I was a little bit taller. I wish I was a baller… oh, this isn’t karaoke?
I wish I could find a partner-in-crime that actually respects me as an independent, caring, loyal, yet open-minded human being. But that’s all the sappy Valentine’s Day crap spewing from my brain. Or the residue from my recent break-up.
No. I wish I could eat desserts for all meals. But then again, that could be my PMS.
OK, I wish my condo association would allow me to own a dog!
On what date do you tell a guy he is going to be the focus of many online articles? HA!
I don’t tell him on the first date, unless that’s how he found me in the first place. I know most people use the Google feature these days, so I let him be all tech-geeky and figure it out for himself. Usually by the second or third date, they know. LOL Everybody “Googles” now! And if they’re somehow completely technology-retarded, I’ll pretend my blog doesn’t even exist. Seriously.

Remember, all you have to do is pester my inbox { melinda at pursuitofyourboyfriend dot com } to play along. Have you ever wondered what does Mel really think about penises? Or how she had her first kiss? Or why the hell can’t she stop crying at those stupid commercials? Gah! Or do you have season tickets to give away to the Indians games? You know what to do.

Wait, basketball takes the title of “Love the Least About Cleveland”?
Like, not the traffic on the Interbelt or the life-altering potholes all around town?
Srsly?

Well, I now skip the Innerbelt traffic, so that’s of no concern — and ultimately, in comparison, we still do not have bad traffic here. So-help-me, if I hit a pothole tonight, I’m blaming you! LOL
And seriously about the basketball thing. It’s like we have this ahem, “King” that somehow is supposed to be a savior for all things Cleveland. First off, basketball is extremely eye-punching to watch. Secondly, even being a huge local sports fan, one man does not a team make. And lastly, basketball season never seems to fucking end! Where is the drama in that?!
Unless you’re David Dellucci. And you’re my God.
