Why Being Single Is Awesome

I can sleep in
I can spend ridiculous amounts of money on clothes or shoes
I can get my baby fix on friend’s kids and then give them back when they start to cry or have a stinky diaper
I can go away for the weekend last minute
I can leave my place as messy or as clean as I want
I can read smutty magazines
I can watch Maury
I can have girly décor
I can get bi weekly pedicures
I can go out on the town and ENJOY a few beverages without having to worry about being up by a certain time the next day
I can hog the covers
I can sleep in the middle of my bed
I can use all the hot water in the morning for my shower
I can sit in the bathtub for hours
I can listen to MY music in the car
I can sing as loud as I want and off key
I can have full control of the remote control
I can wear sweats on nights and weekends
I can not shower all weekend if I want too
I can take as many Zumba classes as I want
I can burn my smelly candles
I can go make up free
I can watch the Notebook and cry like a little girl whenever I want
I can drink a bottle of wine, have chips and salsa con queso for dinner (Yes, I’ve done this)
I can talk to my cat like she understands me without feeling like a crazy cat lady
I can work out whenever I want
I can eat ice cream for breakfast
I can get my hair cut and colored without having to explain why I spent so much getting my hair done.
I can walk around my place naked
I can be 100% me.

The #1 reason why being single isn’t awesome:

At the end of the day… all anyone ever wants in life, is to be wanted, needed, appreciated, adored, loved, forever and ever. Sigh. I’m having one of those days.
