Singledom

About a month ago my Bishop of my ward used the word 'Singledom' and I have loved it ever since..even if it is a made up word.

Definition of Single: adjective. one only; one and no more; individual; separate and distinct from others of the same kind
Definition of suffix -dom: a total of all who are: (and my personal favorite)-State, condition, or quality of being, as in wisdom, freedom...freedom from singledom?? We shall see!

I'm sure all you married people really miss being single, ya know-going to parties, dessert night, game night, cereal parties, FHE at the single's ward, country and salsa dancing, firesides...want me to go on? Oh the lovely things that keep us busy and sane..sometimes :) Yes, we go, check people out (don't say you never have done that...and then leave) and go back home ALONE...

Alright, so I have swallowed my pride and still swallowing my pride as I say this...I know I know, everyone knows I Dislike with a capital D being 'set up' or 'hooked up' on a blind date (which they aren't so blind anymore...stalkers on FBook)...but like I said, I'm swallowing it and am going to give it a shot...(Richard, Lindsey, Mike, Ashley, Brittney, Lina don't get too excited now). I've done my fair share of hooking people up and have been pretty successful in it, so I'm anxious to see what y'all got, or should I say WHO y'all got up your sleeves.

I thought I'd make it more of a competition and have fun with it. We have been getting..well the boys have...been getting lectured about dating a lot! Let's have fun with it. Why not right? I hear you are only single and young once..SO this is what I'm going to allow myself to get into...

one- You are allowed to set me up with someone you think would be fun, gentleman, and doesn't stink
two- I know I'm asking a bit much..but please don't pick the 'crazy' ones or I will come after you
three- Remind them it's JUST a date and it's not marriage so it's okay..I promise I'll try not to propose to him.
four- Whoever picks the best match..per ME...will get a little something something..(Yes, you will enjoy it,        and no it's not a Laser Hair Removal from Groupon)
five- It can be a local date, webcam date, you name it..let's get creative..
six- If you want to hook up yourself...sorry, it's all about the Recommendations (Z and Aaron that's for you!)

Enough said. Short. Simple. I still can't believe I'm doing this...but WHY NOT?! We don't have anything to lose right?
