Whatevs.

Sometimes…I get in those moods…

…where not only do I feel like I am going to be single forever…

**Wait…before you start commenting like mad, let me finish:**

…but I am okay with being single forever. 

Whatevs. I don’t need a dude. I scroll though pictures of my married friends, and pregnant ones, and I think, ‘Eh. Whatevs.’ I mean, that’s awesome for them – the world needs weddings and babies. And I love both of those things. Just…I dunno, the more I think about it, the more I just don’t see it for me. I just don’t think it’s actually going to happen for me, in my life. Any of it. It’s scary, it’s weird, it seems a little unnatural. But…whatevs. I’m just so…whatevs about it. If that wasn’t apparent already.

But not only does the world need weddings and babies, the world needs crazy cat ladies. Think about it: if the world were completely populated with happy couples and nuclear families…where’s the drama? Where’s the made-for-TV-Lifetime movie specials about fucked up single, crazy women? The 20/20 exposes about dead old ladies whose cats ate their faces after their owners died weeks before? They wouldn’t exist. In a happy-go-lucky world of love and marriage, there isn’t room for single, old cat ladies. And I, for one, am glad the world isn’t a utopia like that. Because, it seems, I am about two cats shy of being a mid-twenties crazy cat lady. 

And I may have to just learn to accept this, with open fucking arms.

Sigh. Whatevs.

    Well…I don’t know you, and I’m not entirely sure what you’re getting at here…or if this is even an insult, compliment, back-handed compliment, or some strange combination of all three. But I found this interesting enough to ‘approve’: this idea that there’s a positive correlation between weight and likelihood of obtaining cat-lady-dom. I’m going to investigate this further.

    Dude, I have 2 cats, I am resigned to being single. But instead of crazy cat lady I have decided to aspire to being the worldly eccentric sexy-”Mrs. Robinson”/cougar-style-lady who has endless strings of lovers, is perfectly fine, scratch that…ELATED,with that and should I one day decide to procreate… I will. Because I am woman, and I can do whatev. :) MWAH! PS if the need or urge should arise we can always cohabitate as crazy cat ladies together LOL

    Dude, Ella would totally eat your face. She’s vicious.

    You’ve got too much love inside to end up a crazy cat lady. Enjoy the dramas of being single while it lasts. All too soon you’ll be pregnant and married.

    Is it possible to be a cat lady and still make babies? And be married?
