The Lo Zone

A groovy place in cyberspace run by author Lolita Files. Come on in. Bring some Pepsi.

 
Lo Fun Fact #1
"Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. For as long as she lived, she had no idea there was anything sexual or seedy about being called "Lolita".
Lo Fun Fact #2
I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes (although obviously I can't eat fried chicken nearly as much as I'd like). If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Church's (that's right, I said Church's) and a pair of Christian Louboutins.
Lo Fun Fact #3
Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi. Better yet, how about not showing up at all?
Lo Fun Fact #4
I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you or take a long time to return your calls. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? (Exception: I will happily take all calls related to business or to share fun/exciting/major news. I'm just not one for jawing on the phone just to be jawing.)
Lo Fun Fact #5
I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!!
Lo Fun Fact #6
I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. I'm always on my laptop and connected to the internet as I work and when IM's pop into my screen out of nowhere, they break my concentration and often startle the sh*t out of me in the process. So don't do it. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position.
Lo Fun Fact #7
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. I had a bird (a Roller pigeon that I rescued in LA on New Year's Day in 2004) named B-Bird (what? that's a good name!) who passed away in February 2009, which broke my widdle heart in half. He loved me so, as I did him. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs and cat, we'll be instant friends, and if you ask about B-Bird, I'll probably hug you (unless you smell...wash first). If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond.
Looking For Mr. (Or Ms.) Goodbar.

Is he or she out there? Do you think they're on the way? How many of us believe in "The One" (or The Two, Three, Four, or Five, according to how prone you are to falling in and out of love)?

If you do believe and are single, divorced, or married (but still willing to share your opinion), how do think he or she is most likely to arrive?

1) Through mutual friends

2) A chance encounter (at the grocery store, or you run into the back of his or her car, etc.)

3) Church

4) Online

5) A friend or acquaintance who blossoms into something more

Do you believe in true love or is all of this shit...

...just a shot in the dark?

    I believe in true love. I just don't believe everyone will find it. I believe in soulmates, I just don't think all soulmates will marry or are supposed to marry.

    It's a stab in the dark, just ask all the divorced people or people looking to get one.

    I think it's different for everyone. I know people who believe in true love and soulmates without a doubt. I tend to be more cynical about love. Whatever your stance may be...love is almost impossible to define.

    Definantly a stab in the dark. People "love" whomever benefits them the most. Period. That's my 2 cents.

    I believe in love & soulmates. I have faith that our Creator wants each of us to live our HIGHEST selves. Sometimes we're blessed w/our soulmates early in life, sometimes we're required to wait on them until we have lived up to our potential and continue to maintain the Faith.
    that's my belief & i'm sticking to it;-)

    Well for me it is definitely MS. GOODBAR. I don't believe in the soulmate theory, but I do believe that chance encounters can and will oftentimes turn into romantic flames if fanned properly.

    There is so many places to find romance---not just love. I'm kind of fond of grocery stores. Ask COrtney Gee...LOL!!

    I believe you can find love almost anywhere and at any time. But there is more to it than the feeling. Love is an action verb, it's not enough to say it, or feel it, it's what you do about it.

    I find love nearly every weekend on the Sunset strip. Of course, one night I mistook an undercover cop for love. My bad.
