Out of My League
One evening, while I was on a break from work, I heard a song being played over the store's speakers. Honestly, I didn't hear the whole thing and I don't know what it was about. I'd never heard the song before and I had no idea who sang it. But one line talked about a … Continue reading Out of My League
A Dater’s Guys to Disney Princesses: Pocahontas
Is Pocahontas actually a princess? I feel like that's debatable. She was the daughter of a Native American chief. Technically, I don't think she's considered royalty. The real Pocahontas later married John Rolfe, who I'm pretty sure wasn't even considered nobility. So you can't even say she married into the title of princess. Pocahontas was … Continue reading A Dater’s Guys to Disney Princesses: Pocahontas

And since I … Continue reading The Single Guy vs. The Fifth Grader

A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Aurora
Ah, Sleeping Beauty. I'll admit, this was one of my favorites as a kid. Maybe it's because they did a lot to flesh out the villain, Maleficent, this time around. She just seemed like a really cool bad guy. Look, I won't get into it here, but I'm not a fan of the Angelina Jolie … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Aurora

Moment
The world around him seemed to slow to a crawl as Parker Davis made his way through the crowd. This is my moment, he thought. He was there. She was there. Everything was falling into place. He knew it wouldn't take more than 30 seconds to cross the room. At that point, he would find … Continue reading Moment
