What do you do when your ten-year high school reunion is coming up and you’re not where you want to be? When you’re single and you go to the reunion is it going to be the scene out of Bridesmaids when Annie shows up to her best friends engagement party and everyone reminds her that she went solo? Or do you put on a fake ring you accidently stole from the beauty supply store because you were trying to show your boyfriend what you wanted? Working a dead end job knowing there is no way in hell that you can truly enjoy your life because your hate your job so much. This is the ultimate kicker about how you’re in your late twenties and you still live at home with your parents, do you tell everyone you have roommates? Do you really want to walk into that thunderstorm? That is the dilemma I’m dealing with now.

I’m twenty-six years old and this time last year I had multiple interviews for other job opportunities and I was in a great committed relationship. I thought that I was out of the dating world forever. We went ring shopping, apartment hunting, we even had our children’s names picked out. Now I’m sitting here wondering what the hell happened, I’d like to think of it as a fresh start. If I sit here and feel sorry for myself I’m going to be in a room with padded walls, and I don’t mean the fun pretty quilted wallpaper either. I have a little less than a year before my ten year high school reunion so what does that mean to me? That means I NEED TO GET MY SH!T together before my year is up. Step 1 find a new job, step 2 move my old ass out, step 3 there is no step three. Love happens is the strangest ways and at the most random times, so I can’t predict that that will be my third step. Somewhere out there, there is a tall, dark, and athletic man waiting to give me a 5 karat flawless cushion cut diamond engagement ring in a halo setting buuttt until that happens I shall continue going on these crazy dates and looking fabulous.
