So…I just found this on Pinterest and I just had to do it–especially since it’s April 1, April is a 30 day month and my brain is fries and I need some blogging inspiration!

Today’s post is about your current relationship…and if you are single, discuss how single life is.

So yeah…as you know I am single. How is it? Well…it has great moments…and it has moments where it isn’t so great.

The great things…my time, money and general life is my own. I workout, bake at 2 am, buy expensive shoes and spend my time with whomever I choose.

The bad things…going to weddings alone…heck, any sort of coupley-thing alone blows. Those comments from friends and family and even randoms. Sometimes they are well meaning…but even still the comments suck. It is also hard to watch all of your friends move into new parts of their lives….houses, husbands, kids….you can’t help but feel a bit lonely and left behind.

Oh and then there is the “fun” of dating–or that’s what my attached friends call it. I don’t call it fun. It is way to stressful to be fun. Figuring out if you like him…does he like you? Will he call? Do I text? Is there a second date? Do I kiss him? And that is just the beginning–nevermind bringing seksi times into it!

This all being said, I know it would be worth all of the aforementioned stress, frustration and disappointment if I knew I would find the right guy–and hopefully sooner than later.

As a result, I am going to take a step in a different direction when it comes to dating–I am going to hire a proper matchmaker. They do criminal record checks and don’t take you on as a client unless they can match you. It has had a number of newspaper articles written about their successful matches and I figure dealing with a real person has to be better than online dating where it is random or determined by a logarithm.

Wish me luck and will totally keep you posted!

Much luv,

Morning y’all!

I had a brief moment of insanity and looked at facebook this morning as i had a few emails to respond to regarding my Ottawa friend’s “wedding celebration” (otherwise known as a bachelorette party without the debauchery)–bad idea.

Good ol’ FB was filled with overtures, and pictures of many gifts that boyfriends/husbands/man-friends had all given the people I know…even those people who never post anything on facebook.

To that I say Bah Hump-bug (you get it, right?!). :)

Granted, I’m not event bitter at this point in my life–a 32nd valentine’s day without a boyfriend isn’t a new experience.  I just find it funny how much facebook has become a tool for bragging and trying to impress everyone else with how your life is fabulous and really, more fabulous than your other friends.

But, I digress.  I’m not going into a whole big diatribe on the evils of facebook (especially since it has some wonderful positives as well).

Last night was not the success I had hoped.  My run didn’t happen so I played the role of a couch potato and ate peanut butter and jam on toast for dinner.  I felt like I was on the verge of a migraine and didn’t want to take a chance in making it a reality (which sometimes happens during my long runs).  As a result, I am going to try to sneak in a long run after work today, before I head out with my dear ol’ dad to a cool concert by a Canadian country artist named Lindy Ortega.  I highly recommend checking her out–she is super talented and even had a cameo on a recent episode of the TV show Nashville!

Wow…this is such a disjointed post.  Yikes.  On that note, I think I should pitter-patter and get back at-er.  Happy Valentine’s to all the lovers out there and Happy Palentine’s to all the singles!

Much luv!

Leesah (mwa!)
