New 30 day blog challenge!  Wouldn't you KNOW the first post is about your "current relationship" - yawn.  If single I'm supposed to tell you how single life is.  It's great - no really, it is.  With the exception of 2 weeks out of 52 I am completely content with being single.  I like the freedom of not having to consult with someone for wanting to jump in the car and go see a concert 3 states over - esp. last minute.  Some might think it selfish to say but I'm thankful I don't have to keep someone else's feelings in mind when I want to do something.  Those of you who really know me, know how much I internalize most things and upsetting someone ranks up there.  It's nice not to have to worry about upsetting someone.  Do I miss having a significant other - sometimes.  It's hard going to the movies by yourself (esp. if you get your seat early and THEN have to use the restroom). Some places absolutely do not like single people and will make you as uncomfortable as possible.  I get tired of seeing families and couples get assistance before me sometimes.  Also, everyone acts like it's okay for YOU to get out of a couple's way while walking down the street (cuz they are holding hands) - that's a pet peeve but I digress.  Sometimes it would be nice to have someone have my back (it really is tiring taking care of yourself all the time) or to make out with every once in a while (oh who am I kidding- every night - Jack-be-damned!)  or just to have someone say "you look pretty!"  Alas, if I'm meant to put my heart out there for someone again he's going to be pretty darn special.  Until then I have my music, travel and animals and that keeps me smiling!!!
