I am proud. “Death Professor,” my first post two days ago, received sixty views. Now, granted: forty of those views were actually just me checking again and again for spelling / grammatical errors and looking to see if anyone had left any comments. And granted: site traffic dropped off significantly for my second post, “Preview: Summer 011.” Nevertheless, I am counting my time at BPOFD a success.
That’s because my posts here are still immensely more popular than my next most successful internet venture.
In my more than two years as CosbyLover13 at OKCupid.com, a dating website for lesbians and crazy people, I have received about six private messages and was “poked” one time. I had one brief texting relationship with a young girl who did not appreciate my very funny jokes about her baby, and I have never received one of those awesome messages that OKCupid sends some people informing them that they are one of the site’s “better looking members,” and that from now on they will only be given “more attractive matches.” So, far from having the intended effect of making me feel better about myself by showing me how pathetic everyone else is, OKCupid has only made me feel worse. If you can’t get a date on OKCupid, you’re probably never gonna have a hot wife and eight babies like you want to.
My stint as guest blogger ends tomorrow. I will not have this forum (20 views!) for long. If ever there was a chance to show the world what I have to offer, it is right now. For those of you who know me, I beg you to forget everything and judge me solely on the basis of the information I provide. And for those of you who stumble across this blog accidentally, searching for “Order of the United States of America” or “Michelle Farro Toms River NJ” or “French bulldog drunk,” my name is Chris McGowan, and my email is cmcgowan37@gmail.com, and it’s nice to meet you. Hit me up.

Picture of our perfect life together (after retirement): We live in an old country house on top of a hill somewhere down South. I get up at 4 AM every morning for no reason, walk down to the barn and feed the horses and chickens. You wake up at 11 or 12 and for the rest of the day we sit on the porch, reading and watching the tall grasses swaying back and forth in the wind. We drink wine with dinner and then listen to the crickets at night. We sleep with the windows open. I die fairly young and then you get to move off the farm and do whatever you want
