Facts on Russia:


Being single isn't easy work

Date: 2007-01-06

I'm not diseased. I'm not cursed. I'm not even sad and miserable.

I'm single.

And no matter what anyone tells you (especially my mom with her desperate fixation on grandchildren), I do make an effort. I take this apparent defect very seriously.

Boy troubles

Granted, I started late - preferring to read and write stories in high school over actual living. But once in college, I quickly "found" a boyfriend, and he instantly conferred upon me the status of "good wife material."

The facts that I neither actively sought him out nor wished to settle down forever with the first James Dean-wannabe I met, seemed immaterial to everyone.

And I found his presumption about our future charming, until I discovered "wife material" meant he expected me to sit quietly by while he screwed around with non-wives.

I instantly dumped him. Do you blame me?

From there, I fell seriously for the bad boy, then the crazy boy and then the most-intelligent, most-popular boy.

I ended up in a long-term, verbally abusive, co-dependent, tortured romance with a pretentious philosopher who showed lots of promise.

It took several years to learn that promise doesn't get me help with the laundry.

Determined to do better, I gritted my teeth and sallied forth into the single Seattle scene.
