Got a drug for Spring Fever?

Birds are chirping.
Trees are coming alive.
Ducks are mating.
Dogs are barking.
The sun is up till 8p.m.
And suddenly we’re all showing more skin…
It’s here. Spring is here. With a vengeance.

In other news, it’s becoming increasingly hard to stay single now that spring has arrived. I think in winter when its cold, a person wants to be inside where it’s warm and cozy and it’s much easier to stay single, but once spring hits and spring fever infects many people, ideas of lust and like and love start to bloom. Staying on the path is tough, particularly when your mind starts to wonder about that certain person or persons who keep shooting attention your way. Reality hits. Will you make it through the spring and summer and hold on to the freedom you declared at the beginning of 08? Or, four months into the year, will you break and allow yourself to get swept away into some romance?

I’ll keep you posted on what happens. Anyone who knows me knows I love the idea of surprises; but an actual surprise such as a guy popping out of nowhere and turning my head is definitely not my thing lol.

One of the most important parts of being happily single is filling life with all types of meaningful hobbies, interests, and causes. I wrote the blog last week on how important it is to be revolutionary in mindset and action. We can’t wait for life to come to us; we have to make things happen. So in the spirit of making things happen, I’m getting heavily involved this summer in two things I really want to do: Golf and martial arts.

Both golf and martial arts are activities I can master on an individual level that will aid in personal development. Learning something new such as golf and martial arts is an opportunity to compete with myself and learn to master something physical and active. That’s important in an overweight, overworked, over anxious society. Plus it takes the mind off the endless meat market that is the singles scene (oh so unattractive)…

That darn spring fever…
