'Ello Bridget! So, how's your love life?

Alright. All those who do not wish to know anything about my love life should just stop reading now. Of course, we all know you're going to read anyway due to your morbid curiosity.

I am now officially Bridget Jones. And apparently single women DO have scales. Why? Because apparently if you are single for just about six months, suddenly 13 year olds attempt to set you up with their cousins named Bubba (or something akin to it, I don't remember what his name was) and your "friends" at work want to put you up on a personals site. A personals site!!

Why they HELL would I want to post my picture and a cute little profile? Is it really that bad to be single? Is it even worse that I like being by myself right now? It's not that boys aren't great, I mean they're good for occasional amusement....let's face it. Most of the time, the whole dating scheme is kind of a hassle, and it really is no fun trying to explain to people about how studying in law school is NOT like undergrad where you can study the morning of a test.

Besides, then you have to make time for them. And you all know I don't have much time in the first place. Uggh.

So my point here was this: since when did being single become the ultimate evil? Why does everyone either have to be paired off or married? It doesn't make you whole kids, it just makes you a part of someone else's identity - which can be a good or bad thing, depending on how it happens. You know what another word for that is? Co-dependency.

Alright I'm going to finish studying about the Erie Doctrine and drink my coffee in my apartment with my cat. Sounds fabulous. :)

As human beings, I think we are all codependant. Like it or love it, it just..is.
