On the Pros and Cons of Singledom
Every Rose Has Its (Prickly) Thorn.
Being single, no doubt, has its ups: unshared google calendars that don't require consistent updating, Sunday afternoon solo rituals uninterrupted by pre-planned 'together' time, always anticipating the last remnants of cleanclothes/ shampoo/ chocolatepudding/ dvrspace, and unpredictable flirtations with open-ended possibilities (weddings/ familyvacations/ onenightstands/ freeconcertticketsandcompliments). Until the moments in which the cons take over: unending leaks in the kitchen ceiling, other people's relationship statuses, fevers without chicken soup and sympathy, and endless invitations to mistletoe-infested holiday parties. But whether your glass is half empty or full, color-coding google calendars is a great distraction from facebook statuses that deserve screwyou's instead of congrats, and drinking (free) alcohol at parties will likely to induce good-enough-sweet-nothings from Mr./Ms.-You'll-Do-For-Now under the sparking, plastic hemi-parasitic plant designated to making out for single folks and couples alike. Enjoy!
