Single in the City

Alas….I am single again….boo (jk). I always think about what Sex in the City episode I can relate experiences in my life to. I think about that one where Carrie breaks up with Aidan the second time and she says “no Aidan….and no apt….its been a tough week” or someone like that. Well I think “no Anthony…..and no exercise….I feel like a sloth.” Honestly, whenever I feel sad, I just go work out. The release of endorphins is a truly natural way of making yourself happy… a good alternative to Prozac (not that I’ve ever had an anti-depressant before). But of course due to my foot injury I am still not able to do any cardio. So it just sucks. I have way too much freakin time on my hands since I get home at like 4pm. I realized that I really spent a lot of my week keeping busy working out (like close to 20 hours which included work out time and drive time). And I really miss that. Anyways, I’ve decided to write this blog as my way to “exercise” myself to happiness…..And no, I am not bitter (at least not that bitter J)

5 reasons why I LOVE being single:
1. I can go out, drink, and flirt with who ever I want without guilt
2. I don’t have to choose between my significant other and my friends/family
3. I get the whole bed to myself and I have my own space to collect as much crafting crap as I please
4. I don’t have to “check in” with anyone
5. I can be myself and don’t have to compromise

5 reasons why I HATE being single:
1. I have to resolve to internet dating where the pool is just murky (no offense)
2. Wedding bouquet toss (enough said)
3. Listening to my mom say “so and so has 5 grandkids already.”
4. Being the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th wheel…..and so on and so on, I think you get the point.
5. Having to wonder….will I ever find that someone for me. (and then having to hear people say something stupid like, “you will meet him when you least expect it”)

People…if you haven’t picked up on my sarcasm….this is meant to be amusing in some sort of sadistic way. I always try to find the humor is the sad, the good in the bad, the positives from a negative situation. I always learn from my experiences of love and I always get up after falling (and I really fell hard this time). Life goes on…..
