Me & ...

The other day I got an e-mail from a friend inviting a big group of people to a house party on Saturday night. She and her husband wanted to keep it casual, just cocktails and conversation. I quickly responded "I'll be there!" and marked the date in my planner.

A few days later another e-mail arrived in my inbox, this time detailing what everyone was bringing to share. As I scrolled down the list I felt like the soundtrack to my life screeched over to that song "One of These Things (Is Not Like The Other)". Each item - from appetizers to desserts - was listed next to a PAIR of names. All couples, except for me. Guess maybe I should've brought a cheese plate. Haha, get it?

Her & Him. She & He. Me & ...

Just another reminder of what happens when you live alone.
