Top 10 traits for me to avoid in women

The two week rehearsal period for Big Brother 06 is finished. We had two different groups of stand-ins who lived in the house for a few days each which allowed everyone the chance to practise doing their jobs before the official housemates move in on Saturday.

What else has been happening? I'm still putting the finishing touches to my book which I should have turned over to the publishers last month. There was one more book I had to get and read to see if there was anything useful in it to put into my book. Turns out there are several things I can use so I'll try to get them put into my book very soon.

Being single and being 35 means that I really know what kind of person I am NOT looking for. I made a list in my mind of things for me to avoid and so here they are...

Please do not contact me if:

1). You have an unhealthy obsession with knives
2). You have murdered your father (or anyone else for that matter)
3). You are just getting over a previous failed relationship
4). You are a religious fundamentalist
5). You are a ho
6). You describe yourself as a flirty all-night party-animal
7). You are taking strong medication to control your irrational psychotic behaviour
8). You get insanely jealous whenever I simply mention another woman's name, but you feel it's okay for you to go out with other guys
9). You are likely to say "I love you" on our second date
10). You like to make fun of your partner, continually hold him up to ridicule in social gatherings, and treat him like a moron in the precense of others.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED EACH ONE OF THESE TRAITS FROM WOMEN.

I've had a brief chat with someone I met online just recently. She seems quite nice and down to earth. Certainly makes a nice change...

How it's going...

I've been working at Big Brother for about 3 weeks now and so far so good. Yesterday, or more like last night, I had my first shift. I work in the control room and help to log the dialogue and movements of the housemates. At the moment there are 'stand-ins' in the house - the actual housemates don't arrive for another couple of weeks.

Yesterday I started at 6:30pm and finished at 3:15am this morning. I was supposed to finish at 4:30am but the housemates were asleep hence there was nothing for me to do. It was nice getting out early and even nicer to drive home on an almost empty highway.

I ordered some soup (we have runners come and visit us to take meal orders). The soup was aweful, completely inedible. It was from a local-ish Chinese take-away place. Maybe the Chinese like watery crap but I don't. I'm bringing sandwiches tonight. (I start at 11pm and finish tomorrow at 7am).

The control room is busy but seems well ordered. I'm not a technical person but so far I am keeping up with the work.

My team is good and everyone wants to do a good job. Nothing much else to report...still single because I've given up looking, and so I'm just saving my money.
