“National Singles Week”
UnmarriedAmerica.org ^ | 9.20.05 | Various

Posted on 09/20/2005 12:56:01 PM PDT by apackof2

“National Singles Week” was started by the Buckeye Singles Council in Ohio in the 1980s to celebrate single life and recognize singles and their contributions to society. The week is now widely observed during Sept. 19-25 as “Unmarried and Single Americans Week,” an acknowledgment that many unmarried Americans do not identify with the word “single” because they are parents, have partners or are widowed.

Oh no...although I'd challenge any IROC-Z to a drag race. Just pick the cornfield.

I have come to the conclusion that I like being single.
I watched every couple argue last week and I was flittering between different groups of fun.

I don't understand why couples talk about each other - or argue in public - argue about little things that mean nothing - embarass each other - feel they need to be attached at the hip and miserable.

I'll take my single life and live it fully - and if Mr. Right shows up - I'll be happy with him.

But, I'll be happy either way.

AMEN. I keep telling myself there is going to be a gift bonanza when its my turn.

Yet, my dating life is a desert wasteland. Work is fast-becoming my new "life partner."

HAH! You wish!

Save your strength for the pits, when you have to try and figure out which jets to use.

Is there a Singles Awareness ribbon?

Hmmmm... Maybe instead of the ribbon with the red hearts like for that romance awareness day, maybe this one could have little broken hearts? ;-)

Would you have preferred being dressed up in pink taffeta with shoes (and therefore, feet) dyed to match?

I think it would be just as fair if I received $50 for my troubles from all the couples. ;) I've been best man for two of my friends twice already.
I've compartmentalized work. My partner for the summer has been my stupid house.

Geez I just take the dog for a walk and there you go makin out with some other guy. I know Fan Fan is a married mother but she would probably be more true. When did you dye your hair red?
