Hello from Ketchikan! The cruise is almost over… Tomorrow is the last day, and we’re ‘at sea’, on our way back to Vancouver. I’m having a fabulous time, and these past 2 weeks have been really amazing. But, I’m ready to come home now, and start my move… Yep! I move on Sunday! I still [...]

.!. Hey folks of the non-seaworthy type… How’s your early Tuesday going? Mine? Awesome… My birthday started off, well… really great! Lisa dragged me to a 50s/60s night… And, it was actually really great… (LISA SAYS: It was awesome, and I haven’t had this much fun in years…) The clock struck 12, (err, 11 Alaska [...]

Okay everyone… It’s time for me to get real with y’all. I’m *hating* this singlehood thing. The novelty has long since worn off. What once was ‘fun’, ‘free’ and ‘frivolity’, no longer comes close to feeling that way. My main barometer? My friends. They are so incredibly patient with all my whining, whinging, “oh woes [...]

Although I’m using much of my remaining positive attitude (which hasn’t quite depleted) to stay upbeat about being single, I’m finding myself frustrated with dating in Vancouver.

I promised about a month ago to write about why I believe I’m still single… It’s simple really: I’m self-sabotaging. The ‘why’ is a bit harder to figure out, but after abundant reflection over the holidays — one of the few times of the year I really feel the full effects of being single — [...]

Chalk it up to the time of year… Or, the fact that I’m poised to go to 2 separate New Years celebrations, both containing primarily couples. Either way, I re-activated my online dating profile tonight. Yep, that sounds like a special-kind-of-kind of crazy I know. …Because it sounds crazy to me, too. But, I live [...]

Dear Santa, I haven’t written to you in, um, about 30 years, but I thought it was time I did. I hope you will forgive the lack of correspondence from me over the past few years? I’m writing this year, because you seem to have forgotten to come by my place recently. I know that [...]
