Single on Spring Break

This year I planned a getaway to St. Louis for Spring Break.  Katie, Andi, and Lindsay joined me on this trip.  I found myself single three days before we left, so I was prepared to have a wonderful time.  I was single and ready to mingle.  We left out early Monday morning.  The ride down there was interesting to say the least.  Katie tried to make me use the bathroom at a barn, (it was a convenience store shaped like a barn) but took me to McDonald's instead.  When we got to St. Louis we went to the brewery, which Katie declared smells like beer.  We had a good time at the brewery and then ventured to St. Louis Mills to shop.  After a little shopping we went to the NASCAR SpeedPark for some Go-Kart racing.  I won.  I lapped Katie about 20 times.  I hit her once and she was not happy about it.  After that, we went to check in.  That was an experience in itself.  They had my name down wrong.  Apparently I am with Thomas Green.  We got the reservation fixed (or so we thought) and got ready to go to dinner.  At dinner we realized St. Louis has the worst service of any place I have ever been to.  The next day we decided to take public transportation to the zoo.  We survived and enjoyed a day at the zoo.  We got to see lots of animals, but no hippos.  I was highly upset.  There is so much more I could say about this trip, but I have to get ready to go to the Orpheum.  Let's just end it by saying I am so thankful for my friends.

Hello, It's me!

Hey!  Remember me?  It's just been a year or two.  I guess I felt like I ran out of things to say.  Or maybe I thought I wasn't interesting.  Then I realized tonight, I missed typing my feelings for the world (or the three people that read my thoughts). Let's see, what has happened.... Nothing interesting I'm sure. I'm 30, that's new. I'm single, that's not. I'm brunette again, but I guess the blog word didn't see the blonde.  I gained all the weight I lost back, so there's that. I have been struggling lately, with just about everything.  Mostly, I am on the single struggle bus.  I have a bus pass and keep chugging along. I guess at this time of year it gets worse; everyone is getting engaged, announcing the are expecting, or starting new relationships.  And while I can rejoice with my friends in their seasons of happiness, I can't help but mourn my season of sadness.  Sometimes the season seems to drag on. I guess wh...

Link Up

Finish The Sentence With Jake & Holly Hey!  I've never done a link up before but I thought, why not.  My page sucks and I'm almost embarrassed to link up and have some really cool "professional" type bloggers look at it, but oh well.  Make fun if you want, I'm a stressed out teacher, that hasn't even had time to blog in ages. Anyways I read these link up things all the time, always wanted to join in the fun.  This one looked fun...so here it goes.  I hope I don't suck.  BTW, I'm such I loser I don't know how to link up right, sorry I'm a failure My happy place... Walking down Broadway in Nashville, TN.  I love all the live music you can hear from every honky tonk.  Or at a musical.... Or at a live concert... Or the beach...  Pretty much if you get my out of the house or work I'm friggin' happy. Whatever happened to... Andrew Keegan.  I may google that later.  (and yes the Full House song popped in my head too...

Let's get some things straight

First thing's first, don't think I will type something every day, I won't. Secondly, apparently some folks think I am not happy.  That is totally not the case.  I know I did at one point in my post last night refer to this point in my life as a "season of sadness".  I did not mean necessarily mean I am sad and you should feel sorry for me (or offer up your advice on finding a man).  This year has sucked.  And it has nothing to do with a man. I am content as I am.  It took me 30 years to like myself and the person I am and I will not start feeling sorry for myself again.  Yes, there are times it would be nice to have a man.  It would be nice to have a relationship, someone to spend time with, and someone to share life with.  However, I know what I want.  I know what I don't.  And I know what I will not settle for. I will not settle for less than what I want or less than what I deserve.  I would rather be alone and unha...
