Advice From a Single Girl

Just me. Thinking thoughts, living life, figuring it out as I go along.
And, no, I don't really know what I'm talking about.

About Me

My photo
Victoria
Hi. My name is Victoria and this here's my blog. I started posting here in 2006 because I was writing anecdotes (to myself) in my head anyway, and I figured I may as well write them down. I don't think I ever expected anyone to read my brain thoughts, and I'm still pleasantly surprised to discover that anyone does. This blog started out being about being single, and has morphed into being about whatever's on my mind. This is my life, my world, my thoughts and my take on things. For what it's worth.
