I'm sorry Susan but Rachel doesn't seem to be celebrating ANYTHING, much less being single. Cripes. If she, or anyone else for that matter, was so celebratory over being single, they wouldn't get so bent out of shape. And for the record, I never celebrated being single. I was always looking for the whole shebang.

But yes, I moved past that titled over two years ago when I left NYC. I don't know that they care about changing it or that it really even matters at all. And for the record, I never liked that label. I've been saying that for almost five years. I've said it before and I'm sure this is not the last time I'll have to say it, if you really thought that's what this blog was about, you'd have been unhappy all along. This blog is about life and humor and a million different other things. But rarely was it focused on just "being single."

Fish, I love your blog. I've been reading it for more than two years now and am so happy that you've overcome multiple unemployment situations, moving to Texas and finding yourself a good man!

However, I totally agree with Rachel and am wondering if perhaps you've moved past what iVillage is advertising:

"This Fish blog from an independent New York City woman celebrating singlehood."

This post is definitely not "celebrating singlehood," which is unfortunate because some of us still are.

Thanks for reminding me of why being single sucks… Not Cool Happy-in-Love-Lady… Not Cool.

Not for anything, but why does he need to be fed? He’s a grown up, no? How did he procure sustenance before you two moved in? Let him char some animal flesh and chow down on the cheerios!
