21st Century Spinster

I know that being MIA in the early stages of a blog doesn’t build confidence in my new found readers, but things come up. Things like school, the lamest of all excuses.  I was also spending aweome super fun-times with friends and a girl has got to have a social life doesn’t she.

But I am back, and on Valentine’s Day no less.  I know that it is a made up holiday celebrated only by those happily in love, but I can’t help but think of my own single-ness every time this time of year rolls around.  

 

Beauty Blahs

I have never been the kind of girl to put much effort into her looks.  I shower and brush my teeth most days and I brush my hair when it starts to look scraggly.  I think my attitude toward beauty comes from my disdain for the fact that men don’t have to have beauty routines.  I know, times, they are a-changing, but most (straight)men put very little effort into the way they present themselves to the world.  So I figure, in the name of equality and all that jazz, I should adopt a similar attitude.
