All right, here is Marlene.

Good morning, Marlene.

Hi, good morning.

How are you? Hello. Good. How are you guys? Good. Thanks. So you've got a first date on Christmas. I do. How does this play out? Well, I guess we'll see. Basically, we've been talking for a while. I haven't had a relationship in about two years. I've had really, really hard time meeting good guys.

And... for a while. I haven't had a relationship in about two years. I've had really, really hard time meeting good guys.

And so I started online dating on Match. And we've been talking for a couple weeks now. We talk pretty much every day and we text and stuff during the day. But we haven't actually met in person yet.

Oh, that's pretty cool.

So it's a blind date on Christmas?

Yeah, I mean, we've talked online, like on the camera phone, you know, on MacChats.

Okay.

But, I mean, technically, no, we haven't met in person. So you know what he looks like, he knows what you look like, and there's no fake in that.

Right, from pictures.

About how many times a day do you chat or text or whatever with each other?

Um, like we do the, you know, morning, hope you have a good days, and then we talk at night before we go

to sleep.

That's cute.

Who hangs up first?

I'm just kidding.

Neither one of us.

Just leave it on so that we can say we slept together.

And he's where?
