Why are We Single?

Yeah, back to back singleness...

Me: Fox, Why are you single?

Fox: One day i faked sick to go on a job interview.

To make it more believeable, the next day I didn't wear makeup when I went into the office.

My boss told me I looked awful and made me go home.

Why am I Single?

Q: Why am I Single?

A: A recent conversation with Fox:

Me: I want to, like, go shopping. 

Fox: Okay

Me:  I don't really have a lot of money right now, maybe I'll just put some things on hold.

Fox: I don't think they have layaway at Ann Taylor.

Happy Birthday Courtesy of Willard Scott

Lately as I've been getting ready for work (aka dressing for success in jeans and flip flops), I've been watching the today show.  I always seem to get a chuckle out of Willard Scott and his Smucker's Birthdays.

I see these people past 100 and just get a warm little feeling in my heart...

Viola Weeks, old Brooklyn, NY 100 years old: attributes to longevity to faith in god and eating healthy loves to put good things in her garden.

Cordelia Figgat, Charleston, WV 104 years old: taught herself keyboarding at 93 wrote a book at 100 and is the oldest living alumni member at Marshall University

Edna Smith Sugar Land, TX 102 years old: cooks, cleans and enjoys doing laundry, avid member of her Baptist church.

Then I think...

Well what would good old Willard say about me if I (and he) made it past 100??

Pop Princess, Boston, MA 101 years old: enjoys watching crimeshows and blogging.  Still able to drive her antique 2000 chevy cavalier and attributes longevity to the company of her 6 cats.

FML.

Why am i single?

Q: Why am I single?

A: Last night, since I'm minding Moose & Sticky's apt while their on their honeymoon (wedding blog series - COMING SOON!)  I decided to go over and do some laundry.  And by some I mean about 3 weeks worth, at the very least.

But that's not all.

Moose & Sticky have not been in their apartment in over two weeks, so when my tummy started a-grumbling...there was slim-pickins in in cabinets/fridge/freezer.  Instead of walking to the store and buying something I decided to make do with what I had.

On my dinner menu was:

1 Fresca

1/2 cup of mixed nuts

8 Carr's table water crackers

10 shrimp cocktail

Now, the kicker here is that I definitely could have made pasta.  But that would have taken 8-10 minutes.  The shrimp cocktail directions were as follows: 

Place in collinder and run cold water for 5 minutes.

Sold.

Why am I single...Tuesday

Q: Why am I single?

A: A few weeks back I did a little spring cleaning.  Moose came by and ended up helping.  She broke the news that paris blues are no longer in style.

I ended up giving away 51 lbs of clothing.  yowza. 

Why am I single?

Q: Why am I single?

A1: We had some gallons of water left over from the whole water fiasco, so I drank right from the gallon...similar to dudes  wear a lifting belt and gloves at the gym.

A2: twice while googling a picture of a gallon of water I accidentally typed in "gallon of whatever"...yeah...twice.

run, forest, run...

So I ran a 5k Sunday...go me!  I was talking to a co-worker and she's trying to convince me to run a half-marathon.

I decided I'd do a little running this week, see how it goes...and decide next week.  But anyhooo...

I ran 4 miles yesterday...and saw a beautiful rainbow over castle island. 

I thought "this is a sign, I should run it".

And then I thought "This is why I'm single, I believe in rainbows and leprechauns".

When I told Finn she said that I have the heart of a six year old.  I'm pretty sure I have the maturity level of one as well.

editor's note: I have not signed up for said race.  If I do, I solemnly swear not to tweet, blog, facebook, mysapce about it, OR ask any of you for money.  holla at your girl PEACE.

I think that all pretty much covers it.

Shall I be more sensored now that my mother is following me on twitter (you should probably follow @mocarey)

Nah.

I came to this realization when talking with Finn, Moose's friend that is across the pond in England.

Why am I Single?

Me: Yeah I was out once awhile ago and my date said "You know you start every story with 'so I had like 5 beers..' right?"

Finn: Tell me that's the title to one of your blog posts.

Whoopsies.

After leaving both my credit and debit cars at the same bar (in Burlington, Vermont mind you), already having had a friend pay for my lunch, we mad a pit stop on our ride home.

Me: Will someone buy me a McFlurry?

Fox: You've hit rock bottom

Why am I single?

Senior year of college I won a snowboard at a bar.

I was so preoccupied with the snowboard I left my entire purse at the bar. 

I woke up on the floor of my bedroom, confused.  I walked downstairs and saw a snowboard...even more confused.  My roommate filled me in.

I updated my AIM away message to 'Apparently I won a snowboard last night?", and then went to retrieve my purse.

There's a photo of me in my college yearbook...hammered, snowboard in hand.

The Year Without Cheese - Week 1

I successfully made it through my first week without cheese.  Only a mere 2 days into my month without cheese, I walked into Moose's kitchen and brought a box of Cheez-its back to the couch.  Moose just looked at me and said "Dude you can't eat those".  Needless to say, it's been a long week.

The work week was fine, filled with cheeseless sandwiches, etcetera.  I successfully avoided going out for lunch at a Mexican restaurant with some co-workers.  Imagine a Burrito without cheese [seriously, imagine it].

That ain't right.

The weekend, well that was a whole different ball game.  We went out for lunch for Beej aka Bonalyn's birthday and of course my ever-so-kind sisters ordered nachos.  The waiter came up to the table and cleared plates and glasses only to place the most ginormous plate of nachos I'd ever seen directly in front of me.  I'll tell ya, hot cheese never looked so good.

 "No sir these are for the bitches at the other end of the table", I wanted to say. 

I slide the plate down to Moose and Beef and wallowed with my loaf of bread and butter.  The rest of the outing consisted of several hours of drinking during the daylight, and by nightfall, after a 2 block limo ride to our 4th bar, the crowd was ready to refuel.  I bopped over to see what they'd ordered, and to my dismay, I saw Beef pulling a chip with cheesy goodness from yet another pile of the January-forbidden nachos. 

I resisted,  and instead grabbed what was probably bud light number 9 11.

To make matters worse, today my roommates decided to munch on some cheese fries from the comfort of the couch directly across from me.  Really?   "Hey, I didn't give up Cheese." said Vickie. 

So, I ask what is rarely uttered from a single girls lips, Where are you February???

Why am I single Wednesday?

Q: Why am I single?

A: On Easter Sunday, 2009 instead of going to church Moose and I watched Step Up 2.  Direct Quote from the movie:

"Yo, why my crib smell like Funyuns, broccoli and ball sweat".
