It's All Fun and Games Until Someone Blows Up

Oh, Christmas tree!
So I had a great Thanksgiving and all... a little weird, but it turned out to be really great. I went to a friends place for dinner with a bunch of other people who couldn't be with their families, so who else happens to be there? Only G.I. Joe's roommate. Awkward...ish.


Go State!
So anyway, you guys know my opinion about being a single lady right now - it's what I need and I'm enjoying it, but it's this time of year that makes me miss having someone around. For example, it's really hard to trim a tree when there's no one standing on the other stand to hand strings of lights or tinsel around. Then when you get your lights plugged in and you have your space heater on and you decide that you want to heat up some leftovers so you toss some in the microwave and turn it on and you flip a breaker and you have no idea which breaker goes to where and your arms are too short to reach the switches behind the fridge. SUCKS! And I wish I had someone to help me out or to rush in and the save the day, but what's more important, I think, is that I figured all that shit out by myself and saved my own day. Boom. Go me. And now my tree is up and I am cuddled with my wine watching Just Friends and feeling comfort in the fact that at least my holiday won't be that screwed up, because let's face it - relationships just complicate everything anyway.

  1. Yea, relationships TOTALLY complicate things! It's better to learn how to fix the circuit breakers and such by yourself. That way, someday when your husband won't do it after you nag him, you just do it yourself and feel super empowered. ;)At least, that's how I felt when I moved all the furniture for Thanksgiving BY MYSELF.
