You may be wondering "why takeout for one?" Well truthfully, I'm always single. I'm the friend that's always the bridesmaid and never the bride. I have watched my friends get engaged, get married, have babies and start their families. It just isn't my time yet. So for the time being, I have decided to blog about my single life experiences and funny stories or random events. Then someday (hopefully) my day will come where I can change that headline to "Takeout for Two"-just like Sandra Bullock in Two Weeks Notice.

They should make Monday illegal

Dear Monday,
I want to break up.
I'm seeing Tuesday and dreaming about Friday.
Sincerely, It's not me, It's you.


Having one of those Monday's!  Saw this on facebook and thought it was too cute and so true.


I always have a three day weekend so I especially hate Monday's.  I just want to hit snooze and sleep!!! It doesn't help that I was up all night having terrible nightmares that I was being tortured. WTF.
Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7 of your life.


On a brighter note...I FINALLY got my bottom braces off today.  14 months...some may say that was a short time..but it felt like an eternity.  It's so weird to have straight bottom teeth, but I'm LOVING it.  I feel like a brand new woman.  Before I was so self conscious about my crooked dog teeth, and then the braces..so now let's hope I find a new confidence in myself.


Braces Off today!!


I am still talking to Mr California...I know, I know, "what the hell is she thinking?" Trust me, I think that myself.  But it's something I just can't seem to completely let go of.  We don't talk like we used to and it's not hours a day or even everyday anymore..but it's still there.  Something is still there.  Trying to decide if it's anything that is worth my time.  All I can do is take one day at a time.  And yes, keeping my options open and am open to dating!! I can't make someone a priority when all I am is an option.  Plus, the distance sucks.  The scariest thing about distance is that you don't know whether they will miss you, or forget you.  



I did sign up for match.com.  I did.  And what helped is I got a good friend to do it with me!! So we made our profiles together while face timing and drinking wine.  Yes, it was a good time.  And all I can say is..holy men.  I'm overwhelmed.  I have gotten a ton of emails already.  I feel like I'm online shopping.  I know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover but all you have is their pictures to go by.  And if you are posing in front of a mirror flexing with your shirt off, no I will not write you back.  And if you are 55 years old and your screen name is "Christian Grey" no I will not write you back.  (seriously this is what I'm dealing with)  Or if you email me and tell me that you have a foot fetish and all you want to do is lick my feet...go to hell.  What is wrong with people?!? There have been a few cute ones that have filtered through.  So I just need to stop being so picky.  Now I just need to work up the courage to actually respond.  Baby steps people! This is huge for me!!!!


I posted this on my facebook yesterday..as it seems to be perfect for me:


See, I'm already doing better at this blogging thing!! This online dating might make for some interesting entries.  Let's see if I survive.
