Cooking for Myself

Can we talk about meal planning? I'm single. I live alone. Meal planning should not be a stressful event in my life. In general, it isn't. But meal planning, for me, is probably not what typically comes to mind when someone uses the phrase, "meal planning." I know when I think "meal planning," I think … Continue reading Cooking for Myself

Singles Laundry

Why do I have a hamper for dirty clothes? Is hamper even the right word anymore? It's really more like a big basket that's about the size of a trash can. I digress. I was thinking about it and that waist high basket really just takes up unnecessary space in my bedroom. Here's the thing... … Continue reading Singles Laundry

I’ll Be There For You

I'm certain we've established that I, from time to time, have some pretty freakin' bizarre dreams. Exhibit A. At times, they can be kind of disturbing. Exhibit B. Recently, I had a dream that was, yes, bizarre. But it was less disturbing than it was incredibly awesome. In this dream, I was married. But I … Continue reading I’ll Be There For You

I’m Gonna Die Alone

Before we get into this post, it's important to note that I wrote this way back around the beginning of May. I wrote it because it was therapeutic. I didn't immediately post it because I didn't necessarily want the person who winds up being the subject of this post (even though there are no names … Continue reading I’m Gonna Die Alone

The Single Guy Rants About the Movies

I need to start this post by clearing the air a bit. First of all, I love families. I love kids. And I think that a family with kids should be able to go see movies whenever they want and/or are able to do so. Except when I don't think that... I went to see … Continue reading The Single Guy Rants About the Movies

Crushing It

Kids, the other day, I gave a friend of mine a ride from the garage. Do you know how she repaid me? By asking me an incredibly personal question. She asked, "Who do you have a crush on right now?" I mean, she is one of my best friends in the world, so she really … Continue reading Crushing It

The Single Guy and the Ribbon Cutting

When was the last time I did a post like this? It's been a long time. And, I think, most of that is because I haven't really given much thought to my status as a Single Guy lately. I mean, of course I'm still single. I just haven't been dating and haven't had much of … Continue reading The Single Guy and the Ribbon Cutting

The Single Guy vs. Convenience

There's a gas station/convenience store near where I live. I'm sure it's convenient for a lot of people, but it's super convenient for me because it's on my way to work. Back in my pre-Whole30 days, I would often stop there in the mornings to pick up my version of caffeine, a Coke or Mountain … Continue reading The Single Guy vs. Convenience

Valentine’s Day on Whole 30

It's Valentine's Day again. Honestly, I couldn't care less. I'm not dating anyone to convince me to care. However, my current predicament of being on Whole30 for the month of February (plus two days in March) got me thinking... What if you're dating someone on Whole30? I mean, let's say your sweetheart is doing Whole30 … Continue reading Valentine’s Day on Whole 30

How to Know if I Have a Crush on You

I'm single. Have been all my life. Beyond that, I'm an introverted single person. That makes it extremely difficult for me to approach a woman to whom I'm attracted in order to generate a conversation out of thin air. Therefore, all I ever really experience are crushes. You know, like a kid will have on … Continue reading How to Know if I Have a Crush on You
