Seriously. I mean I'm going to be 43 tomorrow. I would love to meet my match. Where the hell is he??? Apparently he isn't anywhere I've been because as you can see...I am still single.
Good grief that word just looms like a huge thunderhead threatening to spew out an F5 tornado. Let's just draw attention to ourselves shall we? When I was younger the word "Single" was not ugly. It meant you were enjoying life. Partying and having fun. Did you know that the "S" word for a woman of a certain age draws really horrific visions in a person's mind? Such as...
or
and worst of all...
It is disconcerting. It really is. I'm not one of those women who thinks that life is over if I don't have a man in my life. Believe it or not...I CAN live without a man. I don't need a man to make it through this story someone decided to start for me. Do you sometimes question what the hell our parents were thinking? We did not ask for this story of life but yet here we are! Now to figure out how to write it so we aren't on our deathbed thinking "You have GOT to be kidding me!!!". So here I am figuring out the chapters and filling in the blank pages with..well not a whole lot of anything. I want to meet someone. Someone who can help me fill in those blank pages.
I'm not a fan of self help books. Actually I try to avoid them at all costs. I prefer to live in the fantasy world of Stephenie Meyer and other wonderful authors. But there is one self help that has come into my possession. The title is quite catchy. Become your own Matchmaker by Patti Stanger. Don't know who Patti is? You don't watch Bravo TV do you? Patti is the Millionaire Matchmaker. Love her show and love her. She is a no hold barred, kick you in the balls truth teller. If you don't want the truth then don't ask her for advice. She is awesome.
So here I sit...holding onto a book that could quite possibly change everything for me in the romantical department. I will read it. I will contemplate it. I will hopefully take some of what she says, apply it to my life and meet my Edward. Hey!!! It could happen.
