The HB mid-singles conference was this weekend, and I had no intention of attending, but at the last minute I felt pressured into it since my ward is hosting the event. This year I decided to do the speed dating. I've watched the speed daters at this conference, but I've never actually participated. It always kind of cracked me up watching couples where one of them is leaned halfway over the table, and the other one is plastered against the back of their chair, looking as though they would like to bolt and run. Part way through the speed dating I was paired up with someone who was unusually uptight, and extremely soft spoken. That's when I reached the horrifying realization that we were that couple, and I was the one leaning halfway across the table.
In addition to that awkward experience I also met a man who tried to talk me into paying to join his social networking website, and a guy who devoted his 5 minutes interrogating me about how serious I really am about wanting to get married (I was feeling less certain about it with every passing second.) Speed dating was maybe my favorite part of the conference. No, take that back it was my second favorite, Saturday bbq lunch was my favorite...great food.
