Blind Date Etiquette

I recently signed on to be the Salt Lake City Dating Advice Examiner for Examiner.com. I know, I know, the idea of me giving dating advice is kind of comical.

Check out my first article and let me know what you think. If all goes well I will write one or two articles a week.

Thank You Love Notes



I’m currently taking a professional interviewing class. The professor is terrifying! It’s possible that more than one student went home and cried after our first day of class. Imagine one of the most intense people you know and then multiple by 10 and you will have my professor.

On the second day of class we were talking about sending a thank you note after a job interview. One of my classmates thought that thank you notes were old fashioned and that if anything was necessary a thank you email would suffice. The professor and the rest of the class tried to convince our classmate that everyone liked thank you notes. My classmate wouldn’t buy it; he was convinced that thank you cards and mail in general had gone the way of the dinosaur.

Dumbfounded, the professor asked “Haven’t you ever sent a thank you note to a girl?” The professor then went on to reveal one of the most romantic things I have ever heard. Every Thanksgiving this terrifying man writes his wife a thank you note. He doesn’t just buy a Hallmark Card and call it good. Oh no! This man, who strikes fear into the hearts of dozens of students, buys the largest jumbo card he can find and then writes in tiny print all of the things he is thankful for about his wife. He fills the card with around 200 things. He has been doing this for years now. The best part of all of this is that he doesn’t reuse anything from one year to the next. A true romantic would never recycle thank yous! My professor keeps a list all year long so that he can write a very specific and loving thank you card.

Is this the cutest thing you have ever heard or what?!?! All I can say is where, do I sign up for thank you card writing husband?
