Singles Awareness Day 2011

Well, here I am again, celebrating Singles Awareness Day. This is an alternative to Valentine's Day. VD is for couples and marrieds. SAD is for everyone else. It's a day that some singles celebrate their singleness. Or their singularity, if you will. Others, like me, reflect on their singleness and wonder, "what if?" I had hoped that I would be able to celebrate my first real VD, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. (School-mandated or encouraged VD parties/card exchanges don't count.)

What makes this one different is it had the potential to be a real VD. I was truly hoping Monica and I were going to make it. Obviously, we didn't. And while I don't regret the decision to break off romantic entanglements with her in the least, another SAD serves to magnify that I'm alone yet again.

I'll stop now. This isn't a pity party. This is, unfortunately, a case of it is what it is.
