Always the Bridesmaid

I tried on my bridesmaid's dress for my sister's wedding today for the first time since it's been altered....the wedding is 15 days away

I had a minor panic attack when I tried to raise my arms only to discover the off-the-shoulder sleeves were a little too tight...let's just say I couldn't raise my arms, which wouldn't be a problem except that the dance floor calls my name no matter where I am : )

But don't worry, crisis overted! I ran the dress to the woman that did the alterations and she just untacked the front of the dress giving me a bit more movement, which was much needed!


Perk of the Day: Being able to hang out with whoever I want and not having to worry about jealousy

Single Perk of the Day: Not having to deal with drama/fights associated with being in a relationship

I hung out with the ex last night and he took me out for lunch today. Both times he said, "I had a good time." Whatever that means...I'm not too concerned about it

I am starting to enjoy this single life!

So This is How it Feels

I realized this weekend that for the first time in a long time, I was genuinely happy.

2 of my friends got married this weekend, and rather than being sad or feeling sorry for myself, I felt nothing but joy for the two of them.

I had a sense of peace that I will one day be there myself, but until then, I should enjoy my life the way it is now.

Warning: Just because I came to this realization does not mean I will miraculously love life...it's going to take some work, but hopefully I'm on my way

Current perk(s) of being single: I drank for free this weekend and danced with 4 different guys (all of which are friends) at the reception.
