Veteran's Day - for Singles

So today is Veteran's Day and not to be disrespectful to those who have served in the military, I started thinking about another kind of war - the Dating War.
Like many others (and maybe you) I have pretty much survived it all when it comes to dating. Dating someone who:
is married, has kids, is a pathological liar, cheats for sport, is a commitmentphobe, is violent and scary, has a psycho ex, lives in their parents' basement, is just plain old weird... Need I go on?

Singles should have a designated holiday. I'm thinking February 15th. It's perfect for single folks, especially single girls like me. If you can survive Valentine's Day without getting even so much as a petal, you are definitely a survivor and should celebrate the day after. And when you have come to that point in your life when you love who you are and are happy to be single or coupled up, there should be a parade thrown in your honor!!!

Baby, It's Cold Outside

Now that the temperature is way down, it's hard even for me to want to go out. Just the idea of packing on the layers, walking through howling wind, and rushing from door to door to get out of the cold is enough to make me reconsider the journey. So, wherever I go has got to be worth it. A new environment usually does the trick and there's enough new stuff in DC to make it worthwhile:

• Vinoteca - wine bar at 11th and U NW
• Veranda - restaurant at 11th and P NW; can't wait to try the ricotta cheesecake!
• Red Derby - bar on 14th near Columbia Heights/Georgia Ave metro; can't beat a beer and a shot for $5!
• Cork - on 14th in Logan Circle; according to fellow city girl Megan, it's not open just yet
• The Park at 14th - at 14th and I NW; the cocktails named after First Ladies sound quite interesting

You know what else is enough to get me out into the cold? Chocolate! For me, the absolute best chocolate in the city is the hot chocolate at Les Halles. It comes served in a silver pitcher (no single serving here!) with mini brownies. Pure heaven! Now all I have to do is find a hot, sexy man to cuddle up with...

Fall Back, Move Forward

First off, don't forget to change your clocks back: daylight saving time ends later this year (Nov. 4th). I could definitely use the extra hour of sleep. As they say, better late than never. It's kind of like getting over someone.

I spent Halloween with an ex - the infamous Mr. DJ. In my Wizard of Oz inspired costume, I realized how appropriate it was given that I was always living in a fantasy/dreamworld thinking that this guy was right for me. That night helped me to finally move forward and see things clearly. Don't get me wrong. I had a great night (and next day) with him. But just as in the Wizard of Oz , it was like pulling the curtain back on the Wizard.

Now available and able to have what I wanted from him, I realized that he was not what I wanted. He never was and never will be. While disappointing, it's an incredibly weight-lifting relief. Yes, I could spend my time sulking over how I wasted almost three years wanting something that never existed, but I have decided to be positive.
I get to move forward, let go of the past, and get an extra hour of sleep!
