People often refer to older single's as 'leftovers.' Well, I am no leftover, nor do I deserve to settle for someone that is.

In the Interim...

It's been a little while since I've had a date. A little over a month actually. In the time since #13 decided to drop me like last night's prostitute, I've been doing some further research and studying. I've also been living my life. For weeks now I have meant to share some of the great new treasures of knowledge that I have obtained but...my living has gotten somewhat in the way. Never fear though...you have a way to read my words of advice, or those of Ms. Dr. Laura (who I have recently been studying) on my friend's popular blog 'Or So She Says.' You can access it from the button on the left of the link here. Either way, it's always an honor to be posted there and mostly, I have priorities people. I had to write the post so I could win the fabulous dress in her recent giveaway. Everything worked out in my favor and now I have a dress and a new post to show for it. But anyway...

My living has also found me reading books for pleasure. I like to read for pleasure and learning at the same time however. Books that make me feel smarter, just make me feel better inside, and they make me feel like I can discuss important things in social settings. With that, I am currently reading, "The Agony and the Ecstasy." It is a biographical novel about Michelangelo.  So far so good. Keeping my horizons broad as I choose books, has helped me to see the world through many different windows. I love looking at things with new perspective and learning something of a trade unfamiliar to what I do. So, if you are into reading and don't mind a really long book about art...pick this one up. More on my other gallivantings and wanderings soon!

I loved your post on your friend's blog! I read Dr. Laura's book just after Lance and I got married. Some of it was hard to hear because secretly, I think we all want to be selfish and have other people think about us rather than ourselves thinking about others! But when you follow her advice, it really does work! I think you're so amazing!

And as a side note, when you're done with your current book, you might try The Heretics Daughter. Sooooo good!

Thanks Tacy! I think it's awesome that you read that book! I think that sometimes people are afraid to read advice but I think that it can be really helpful! And thanks for the book suggestion...I will definitely put it on the list!! :)
