All By Myself

It's depressing when you haven't had a date in over 8 months and yet you keep getting emails about friends or relatives getting engaged, having babies, etc.

Of course, the fact that I'm at work every Friday and Saturday evening of my life probably doesn't help.

And, of course, someone (rightly) accused me of planning the remainder of my "social" life as a way of avoiding the fact that I don't have one: I have this (antisocial) way of buying a lot of theatre tickets (but only seats for one) in advance, such that between work and the theatre or opera, I only even have six free evenings between now and the end of October.

But at least I'm seeing a lot of fabulous things. Small price to pay for a lack of a social life.

(Sorry to sound like a lame-o, but I just got another one of those "Our son just got engaged blah blah blah" emails forwarded by my mom from one of her cousins. On a Sunday. When I have to go to work. In a business where our national honorary association is hosting a gala benefit tomorrow evening. Which I don't get to go to, because.... I have to work.)

In other news, I had pastitio for dinner last night. Yum.
