I’ll show you a place high on a desert plain…











Yesterday I was going through my lingerie drawer and appreciating all of the cute & sexy babydolls, chemises, etc that I have in there. A world of satin, silk, lace, velvet, bows and other assorted embellishments created by people at Victoria’s Secret and other companies who wish they were V.S.

And once in a while I do wear something from that drawer just for me. BUT I couldn’t help but ponder how it would be nice to have someone else appreciate it once in a while. IF there was a worthy guy, and IF we’d been together a while and were close enough for me to share something from that drawer with him, he’d be a lucky man. But as of late, there aren’t even any candidates for that role.   ;-(

I would consider myself a lucky lady if I found a good catch ;-)



{September 20, 2007}   Being single and listening to music

So something I have noticed lately is that almost all songs regarding love/romance/relationships fall into 4 categories:

1) the person singing is sad because they miss the person they were in a relationship with

2) the person singing is bitter because they either got dumped or they dumped someone who did something crappy (cheated, etc.)

3) the person singing is ecstatic because they are in the “brand new relationship” phase and it’s so great and the person is so wonderful, etc.

4) the person singing is totally crushing on someone new and is trying to work up the guts to act on it

So there are no songs (or at least not many) about single people who aren’t either getting over someone or bitter about an ex or already crushing on someone new. No songs about just single people trying to find a non-jackass to date and not having any luck. I can only think of one song with even close to this theme and it’s pretty old…

Bonnie Tyler-Holding Out For A Hero (1984)

Anyway, I’d appreciate it if anyone can think of any songs with a theme about being single and looking…
