Single

I forward this post with my all-time favourite Shit People Say Youtube video:

Pretty much the truth 100%. For me (and the BFF) anyway.We even had our very on 0:55/56 moment the other night. Well I did in front of her via Skype. So the reason I forward this post with this is because (aside from the hilarity of it all) together (the BFF and I) are pretty much as cliché as single girls come including our incessant horoscope reflections daily. 

My horoscope keeps telling me that it's the perfect time to meet somebody. 

Single Scorpios, you could meet your very own Prince Charming soon, so create the emotional clearing for love in your life.

Eff that noise. I've made a recent (and shared) decision that I am planning to be single right now. Like, actually I'm kind of terrified of meeting someone and it effing up all of my wonderful plans right now. Required to be single plans. 

I have always kind of secretly just hoped to be swept off my feet again and just was searching without "searching" per se. But now? Single 100%.

I mean, sure I love boy attention, but if all of a sudden Mr. Right/Mr. Soulmate walks into a room I'm going to be kind of pissed off at fate and destiny. 

Aside from my need to be single on my Eurotrip in June, I made a big decision yesterday.

I am moving home... for the summer. 

My decision came quite naturally yesterday. Like, I said it out loud and then it was like, oh maaaa gawd (Becky look at her butt) why didn't I think of this before???

My cousin (aka sister) moved home last week and I had a pretty pathetic moment of some dude yelling at me at work last week and me balling my eyes out in front of a few select colleagues and really just bumming hard about how she had left at the same time. I try not to think about it, because naturally it was quite an embarrassing moment. WHY DO WE CRY? Ugh. Anyway...

So we were driving back to Ottawa together yesterday (lonnnnnng story there) and she was talking about how awesome this summer was going to be and I started to think about how I will be home every single weekend and then it dawned on me. If I work from home, why the hell wouldn't I just MOVE home for the summer?!

I have kind of secretly been yearning for a big change like this for a few weeks and so naturally this just is the perfect segway into the big but not-so-big change I've been lusting after. 

Have I mentioned how beautiful my hometown is? HAVE I? Well, let me mention it. My hometown is BEAUTIFUL in the summer and people from all over board up their city homes all summer to move to their cottage on the lake. I have hated missing summers at home. All the fun happens and I'm sitting eating popcorn by myself in the city wishing I was there instead of here.

Now, this summer I will be there, working half the day, docking it half the day, working the night and never missing a single beat. 

I will be at my cottage in the sun all weekend spending time with my cousin... and then in mid-July (YOU HEAR THAT KATIE!!) the bestie returns from Europe and it'll just be beyond epic. BEYOND. 

I realize this is probably my most annoying post in the history of ever, but I'm just ridiculously excited about it all... and you can imagine why I must. be. single. in order for this to work out the way it's supposed to. If I go and meet my soul mate and fall in love that will just mess it all up. 

So... I thought last summer was epic? Well this one is whatever the word for epic +1 is. 

Bring it on, and stay away soul mate until about September 2012, then... destiny/fate... I'm after you.
