The Long Awaited Update


Even though, I had no intention of doing this and those who will read it already know. Here it is. The update.

That above picture was my Valentine E-mail from, Mr. Jetpack aka Boyfriend aka Roommate. He also gave me pretty pink roses and we got a Wii for each other.

Let's pretend you don't know...
Mr. Jetpack and I kept dating. I went home with him for his Birthday and Thanksgiving to meet his family. We moved in together. He spent Christmas with my family. He went with my family on our tropical vacation. We acquired a cat. He maintained that he disliked cats but now Mr. Kitty and him are best friends and I get jealous sometimes. We talk about the big life things houses, weddings and (eeek!) children.

We have a lot of fun together. One day when we were purposely annoying each other and laughing the whole time, I said, "I think you and I both were just looking for the perfect person to annoy." I've found it. And he, selected me, naturally.

Other people's Opinions

I was going to direct your attention to a different love life website, with the premise that it is better. I'm not really sure it is. It's fancier; has more undergraduate accolades than mine and this Jezebel article about marriage seems to think it's worthy so check it out for yourself.

Also, I read this Letter to Singles a while ago and while I'm not nearly as angry or anti-wine drinking as its author, I thought it was worthy of mentioning. Then I got lazy or bitter or decided to hunt in the fridge and forgot about it. So read it now, if you are so inclined.

The Day After

Feeling kind of bummery today. Let's blame Bridget Jones's Diary and how much I felt like I could identify with her when I was watching it last night. Yes, I was that cliched single girl last (Valentine's) night except I wasn't also drunk. I'm quite sure the majority of my infatuations over the past 3-ish years could, if they were honest, which they aren't, would say they identified with the Hugh Grant character. (Remember he's the bad guy in this one). I need some Mark Darcy in my life.

I also watched men's freestyle skiing, further adding to my unrealistic obsession with semi-professional male skiers. At least it wasn't all rom-coms for my solo Valentine's evening.

I always thought it would be embarrassing to get message from someone I knew in real life on an online dating site. I guess it doesn't count if it's by my friend whom I may have partially inspired to join said dating site. It actually made me feel a little less alone in this pursuit. Thanks, you know who you are.

I want a custom love cupcake

I will be on hiatus this weekend from dating, from blogging, from adulthood (hello parents!). Unfortunate timing as it is, that most scared holiday of love is on Sunday,

Venereal Disease Valentine's Day. I knew I'd have to leave you all with something themed, something useful and something sarcastic. As it turns out I don't even have to do the legwork myself. I like movies and I like making fun of Valentine's Day (even though I don't really hate it that much, New Year's Eve is still the worst holiday for the single person). So luckily through this series of tubes and that thing that will never last called twitter I found THIS, the perfect Valentine's Day post. Enjoy and remember...
