oh dear ...

Jimmy Carter has called the Bush presidency the worst in history re: foreign policy.

Now that is funny. :)

I've been reading Revelations of a Single Woman, and very much enjoying it. I've got some thoughts from it to blog about ... but I want to mull them over a bit more.

Until then, let me share with you one of my favorite internet finds:


Answers to the question, "Why aren't you married yet?"


I was hoping to do something meaningful with my life.

Because I just love hearing this question.

Just lucky, I guess.

My fiance' is awaiting parole.

I'm waiting until I get to be your age.

It didn't seem worth a blood test.

I already have enough laundry to do, thank you.

Because I think it would take all the spontaneity out of dating.

I'd have to forfeit my billion dollar trust fund.

What? And lose all the money I've invested in running personal ads?

I don't want to have to support another person on my paycheck.

I'm married to my career, although recently we have been considering a trial separation.

(For Single Mothers) Because having a husband and a child would be redundant.

You haven’t asked yet.

It gives my mother something to live for.

I’m still hoping for a shot at Mr. America.

Do you know how hard it is to get two tickets to Miss Saigon?

My condo board doesn’t allow spouses.

I wouldn’t want my parents to drop dead from sheer happiness.

I guess it just goes to prove that you can’t trust those voodoo doll rituals.

I'm not willing to give up on love just yet.

Dad, I'm only 12. Can I date first?

Is this a proposal?

I'm still looking for that special someone who won't rat me out to the cops.

Because human/computer marriages aren't recognized in my country.

Today, people live to 80. That's plenty of time to get married and divorced.

Federal regulations say I can't.

I keep spending all my time with the Keepers of Lists

Marriage is punishment for shoplifting in some countries.

People begin to look like their spouses over time. I'd hate that

Look at some of the cool single role models: Catwoman: single. The Lone Ranger: single. All superhero types are single: Superman, Wonder Woman, Dudley Do-Right. And then there’s God—also single.

When you think about it, there’s no such thing as a Stepford Single Woman.

Why limit myself to being dissatisfied by one relationship when I can be dissatisfied by an infinite variety?

It's easy to get married. Millions of people do it every year. If you want to pressure me to do something, why not pick something a little more challenging—like becoming an astrophysicist.

My 23 cats wouldn't unanimously agree that he was the right one for me.

My mail order groom has not arrived yet.

Because single women don't have Mother-in-laws.

Because when I get home after work, I don't have to start work again.

Who has time? I still have to build a life-sized Captain Kirk figurine out of Legos.

It would violate the terms of the restraining order.

Changing my last name seems like a ton of extra work.

Its my rib now and I am keeping it!

Now that you mentioned it, I would be safer having a personal driving instructor advising me every time I go somewhere.

The Elvis Chapel was closed that day.

I enjoy finding the toilet seat left in the position I chose.

They just started a great singles group at my church.
