Happy Belated Valentine's Day!

Hello fellow Singleton's! I hope that everyone had a fabulous Valentine's Day yesterday. I know I haven't written in a while but I started dating someone new and I promised a friend of mine that I wouldn't write about him....so I haven't. Guess what, I'm sort of kind of going to break that promise right now.

I had what was probably one of the best Valentine's Days yesterday that I've ever had. I've had some pretty great ones too. There was my college boyfriend who decorated the lounge in my dorm building to look like a fancy restaurant and cooked me dinner, the boyfriend who took me to Vegas the weekend before Valentine's Day and yet, yesterday was quite possibly better than both of those. You see, we spent the entire day together doing perfectly ordinary things and had a great time. Seriously. We went to the mall, to lunch, to the Garlic Fest in Delray, had a drink at Boston's, and ended the day with a movie from Blockbuster. Yes, he did give me roses and chocolate and a rhinestoned Miami Dolphins baseball cap (big points for that one in my world) but none of that compared to just spending the day together and having fun.

You may think I'm a bit off my stilettos on that one but think about it...it's pretty easy to have a good time with someone over a fancy dinner on a holiday. Don't get me wrong, I like that very much too but we just started dating. Valentine's Day presents a lot of unnecessary pressure to a budding romance. Plus, I think that if you can spend a day doing things like running errands and be perfectly happy doing it because you are with someone you really like, then that screams volumes. It's a really good sign of compatibility in my world. So, I think I'll keep running errands and laughing with my new man. So far, the red panties on New Year's Eve are still working their magic. Yeah, I know, it's just a superstition but seriously, who am I hurting?

Happy Groundhog Day!!!!

Welcome to February! According to Phil we have 6 more weeks of winter to look forward to. I live in South Florida so that doesn't really affect me too much. Anything below 70 degrees is considered winter here. Doesn't stop me from catching my usual winter sinus infection though. Yeah, you read that right, I'm home sick. Missed work and everything. That's not like me. Normally, I'm fine with the fact that I'm single but not today. Today, it sucks. This is one of those times when I wish that there was someone here to take care of me. Usually, I have a hard time allowing others to take care of me but not when I'm sick. When I'm sick I turn into a big baby and I want someone to bring me ice cream and shirley temples. Stop laughing! Everyone has their comfort foods/drinks when they get sick. Who are you to judge mine?

There's actually been a lot going on in my single world lately but I made a promise to a very good friend that I would not write about it and as much as it is killing me to not share it with all of you, so far I'm keeping that promise. Suffice it to say that there is someone that if I called and asked I think he might come over and pamper me but trust me, this is not a look that I need for him to see just yet.

So, what's the point of all of this other than for me to whine about being sick and single? Not much else. Just admitting that while I am fine with being single and enjoy the freedoms that it brings, there are times that having someone bring me ice cream and shirley temples would be nice too. Hmmm....maybe I should give in and make a phone call. Nah, I'll spare him that view...this time.
