Is God Single Too?

Life as a single girl of 28 should be pretty freaking fun.  I plan on making that a reality...eventually.  In the mean time, I am subject to a life that leads me, though it should really be the other way around.  Now, I'm still married.  We all know this.  Yes, I'm attempting to remedy this.  My efforts are gauged by monetary definitions.  And it's clear I need to step that up a bit to regain some happiness.  Anyway, this scares some away and I understand that.  I do.  It would be nice for certain people to come out and say that, but I can't expect things, now can I?

But labor day weekend!  Oh, labor day weekend.  What do we have planned?  Well, the 5th is the Hierosonic show.  I'm super excited about that, like you wouldn't believe actually.  Hierosonic has become one of those bands for me that I require as a fix.  When there's too much time in between shows, I start to feel something a bit unpleasant, something sad.  But that will be remedied this weekend.  And then what else am I doing?

Well!  Kristen, my dear friend Kristen, asked me if I would be up for a labor day picnic with her and her mom.  Who wouldn't want to spend time with such a good friend and her awesome mother on a holiday?  So, today she asks me again, saying, "Are you committing yourself to this?"  Naturally, I said yes.  Her next statement was something like, "Remember that you said you were committed."  Oh crap, oh crap, oh crap.  Prepare yourselves now.  What has Kristen gotten me into?  Her and I will be attending a picnic with her mother's Christian Singles group.  (I'll pause here a moment while you expend the bulk of your laughter.)  But, my dears, it gets better.  Her mom has two conditions, one for each of us.  Kristen is not allowed to smoke that day.  I...am not allowed to show any cleavage.  (Hopefully, you've only a tiny chuckle at this one ;) )  Really, how am I supposed to snag a single Christian lover without showing my greatest asset?  Someone please help me out here.  I just want you all to know that I am actually laughing right now.  I can't really blog beyond this point.  But please, let this all sink in.  Oh, my.

  1. Oh I hope my mom reads this!!!! And yeah, you committed. There is no turning back now. And I might add, that I could be wrong, this could just be the church picnic. She does a lot with the group, but this may not be one of those things. I cannot remember. I am sure she will correct us though. :)

  2. I have a feeling it'll be a blog-worthy day. I'll look at is as an adventure of sorts. And...I'm still laughing.
