Gather Round Boys and Girls…

I need to tell you a little story.
Once upon a time (and by that I mean last week) there was a girl named Davita (aka…me) that was fed up with her immediate dating prospects and disgusted by her own history of choices in men.
So Davita decided to sign up for eHarmony.
Davita was PERPLEXED by the [...]

Man Oh Man

I’ve had occasion recently to be mad at men.
Men at work.
Men in my personal life.
Men I’m related too.
Men that make me mad.
Men that make me cry.
Men that make me wish I had decided to join a convent years ago.
I think you get the point. 
And, I’ve said some not very nice words about men in general. 
But [...]

Thoughts and Meanderings

I’ve been thinking a lot recently about what I want out of a relationship.  I won’t go into the gory details…but my (lack of) a love life has been what one might call tumultuous recently.  And even better, I brought much of this drama upon myself.  Those of you that have known me for a [...]

A Post With Uncomfortable Words

I sent the following via text message to a friend this afternoon…
“Romantic comedies = Emotional porn for single women”
Now, I would like to mention here that I hate the word “PORN”.  There are certain words that just bother me.  I also hate the word “CRABBY”.  I have a friend that hates the word “PANTIES”.  And [...]

Current Actions

Well…Current actions indicate that I’ve lost my flippin’ mind.  Some might argue that I never started out with much sanity…but I assure you that I’ve inexplicably lost what I had left. 
Let me explain.  Prepare yourself.  This could be…ahem…embarrassing…
For me, not you.
Situations of late are such that I feel that I am ready for a relationship.  [...]

Wise Wise Wise

A few weeks ago I got the sweetest card in the mail from my friend Amy. 
Not this Amy that I’ve blogged about before…but a different Amy. 
AP was my RA my first year at ACU.  I think it’s safe to say that were it not for her…I would have “tucked tail and ran” home after week one. 
Seriously. 
But [...]

Best News Article of the Day

While scanning cnn.com for volcano news I came across this article.  Wise.  Funny.  Pertinent.

My Ultra Random Evening

Tonight after work I dropped by the mall, picked up something at the makeup counter of Nordstrom, and ate some greasy Chinese food in the food court.  (We can talk about how that diet is going…later.)  I then headed home…ran quickly from the car to the house (it’s -12 outside folks) and settled in for [...]

Do You Google?

***Lest you think this post implies that I’m entertaining any dating options, let me assure you that I am not. That news would be a post of its own, I’m sure.***
Ladies…single ladies…what are your thoughts on “researching” prospective dates? IE…using Google or another similar search engine to find mentions of a person on the internet, [...]

Deep Thoughts…By Davita

I realize that I’m not old. I’m not even close to old…but I’m not getting any younger. It has been a long time since I’ve been in a relationship. Most days I’m okay with that. I’m not particularly lonely. I’m not one of those girls that is eternally planning their wedding or doodling my name [...]
