Labor Day…does anyone really know what it means to Americans (other than the obvious 3-day weekend!) Well according to Wikipedia, Labor Day originated in the 1880’s when New York’s Central Labor Union decided it would be a good idea to give the “working class” a day off. Thank you Central Labor Union!

Some of you may be asking yourself, why would Melanie bother with online dating? Doesn’t she go out enough on her own?

Long day at work, drinks after…we know the drill. I never used to be a big drinker but living in SF has not been kind to my liver.
There are some great bars in the city but who can resist $2 beers & well cocktails?! Welcome Jade.

For some reason I somehow have this strange belief that after you turn 30 you stop doing the stupid things that you do in your 20’s. That some great wisdom comes over you that prevents you from doing the things that will hurt you the most.
