Matchmaker, matchmaker make me a match!

Thank you Esther for turning me on to this great blog Veiled Conceit. This guy puts into print a lot of teh things that I saw to myself as I read NY Times Wedding annoucements. Truthfully, I'm not even sure why I read them, especially since I no longer reside in the NY metro area. Maybe I want to feel 'in the know'. Sometimes I see someone (or worse yet, a bride and groom both) that I used to know in high school or from summer camp or or my alma mater.

Sometimes they make me feel better and give me hope that I too might one day find a mate who is:
*of good breeding and from a rich family (not that I'd kick someone to the curb who is independently wealthy)
*holds some sort of degree from an Ivy-League type institutions (note- this includes Stanford, MIT, and al the other wannabe Ivies)
*has ties to one of the following places- Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, Newport (some other area of RI may be acceptable, such as Watch Hill, Bristol, or East West Greenwich), Boston, Vail, or some other WASPy resort area.
*can trace their roots back to the Mayflower(...well, really any farther than Ellis Island counts....)
*works for a powerhouse investment banking firm/law firm, a humanitarian organization, prominent elected official, or NY media conglomerate

Wish me luck!
