dugindeepI figure to keep up with random posting, I should have a schedule, or a plan, or something. So I'm going to follow this 30-Day Blog Challenge that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

(I know I've failed at the 30-day OTP Porn challenge, but my brain is all fic-ed out right now, after doing BB then some timestamps, but I hope to get back to it soon).
Day One: Your Current Relationship; If Single, Describe Single Life
I am most definitely single. Have been for about a decade, at least, really. The last 'relationship' I was in was basically a hook-up that went off and on for about eight months. I really liked him, but it never would've worked. ANYWAY. So I'm single, and there are great pros and bad cons for sure. The pros include being able to come and go as I please, having time to myself when needed/wanted, answering to no one, decorating my apartment just as I please, having two awesome cats I want to devote my time to, avoiding drama, putting myself first, watching whatever TV I want, whenever, and always having the best side of the bed.
Cons are basically founded upon the fact that sometimes I get lonely. Sometimes I want to have someone to come home to, to count on for help, to pick me up on bad days, to bring around to events where everyone I know is coupled off, to show off, to actually have sex, to vacation with when friends aren't available, to laugh with over stupid TV or movies or dumb inside jokes, to go out to dinner with, to be charmed and wined and dined by, etc etc etc.
I think on the whole, since I've been single* for so long, and know/witness a fair share of bad relationships where people have just settled, I feel pretty comfortable with my spot right now. Of course, I wish I wasn't 34 without any prospects, but such is life.
*I started to type 'all alone' and I was like, wait a minute ... I'm not ALL alone, I have friends to talk to and hang with on occasion. It's amazing what perspective really does to someone.
