Sometimes you wake up in the morning in a great mood for absolutely no reason. You spring out of bed with a smile on your face and all seems right with the world and yet you haven’t even had your coffee yet! I’m in one of those moods today, can you guess why? Is it the fact that it’s Super Bowl weeked? Well, yes, but more on that later. Is it because I drank some weird Chinese tea last night that I suspect had opium in it? MAYBE, but no!

To be honest, I’ve always thought that dating site “headlines” were a little silly. It’s less words than a Twitter update and supposed to give the singles on the site a real idea of your entire personality… how is that fair?
