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

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
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
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
Luscious

Leigh sat at the bar and absentmindedly stirred her drink. Exams were over and Christine had talked her into going out to celebrate the … Continue reading Luscious
Registering
Y'all, I've had some pretty awesome birthday parties in my life. Honestly, they don't always have to involve epic adventures (though it doesn't hurt). Mostly, I only require a decent meal shared with friends. Once, during one of those memorable birthday dinners, an interesting conversation occurred that I thought may be worth sharing. The conversation … Continue reading Registering
The Single Guy and the Release
I've mentioned before that there was a time in my life, several years in fact, when I had walked away from the church. I told myself that it wasn't the church or God that I was walking away from. It was the people. But since people make up the church, well, that's a conversation for … Continue reading The Single Guy and the Release
The Single Guy and the Chicken Alfredo
The following tale is based on actual events which occurred a number of years ago... It's not often that I date. I know, that's an understatement. On those rare occasions that I do happen to ask someone out, I'm kind of proud of myself. This happened a few years ago when I asked out a … Continue reading The Single Guy and the Chicken Alfredo
The Single Guy and the First Day of School
The following tale is based on actual events which occurred a number of years ago... It had been a long time since I had gotten excited about the first day of school. There was a time, once upon a time, when I actually looked forward to that fateful September day when I would be able … Continue reading The Single Guy and the First Day of School
So Many Questions, Part II
In case you missed my post yesterday, you've stumbled into the midst of a week long questionnaire. This list contains 100 questions which I am dividing up throughout the week. Questions 1-20 were dealt with in yesterday's post. Go back if you need to see those answers. And now, we resume the epic answers to … Continue reading So Many Questions, Part II
