The little things that suck about being single...

Generally speaking, I am perfectly content being single. My life is pretty damn stellar and I have no complaints.

However, there are moments when I just blink... like a deer caught in headlights... and think, "OK, this is why I need a significant other." Not literally. But I just had one of those moments. A friend just wrote me:

"... It's a common issue for the carburetors to need to be cleaned. It also takes about twenty minutes and anybody with an adjustable wrench, a can of cleaner, and a paper clip can do it. Gasoline begins to crystallize after it sits for a couple weeks. Easy Peasy..."

Easy Peasy my *kitten*! Now, could I learn how to do this? Sure... I'm a smart woman. But I don't want to. I'm girly, and LIKE being girly. In my spare time, I want to sew my own panties, make butterflies out of toilet paper tubes and ziploc baggies, or modge podge something. I don't want to fix my snowblower.

The good news is, I offered him a sammich and a beer... snowblower fixed.




I guess I'm still good being sans mechanically inclined significant other for today :)

    Please... I can pay someone to clean that carburetor.

    Its the endless hours of mind blowing sex with someone you really care about, who cares about you.... that's what I hate about being single.....

    I'd rather pay someone to do it.

    I also have a large number of batteries.

    Pfft, I don't need to be in a relationship.

    Maybe the take-away from this is that I'm cheap? :blushing:

    "batteries" is a euphemism for when I visit

    I loved single.
    I love marriage.

    Just depends on where your mind is at.
