Ha. I know several managers that went with the "fake it till you make it" approach.

I posted this elsewhere, but my dog's name is Izzy, so I have a blast with "Fancy" because I get to go "Who dog, who dog, I-Z-Z-Y."

Inserting my cat's name into songs that I'm singing along to. "All The Scouty ladies! All the Scouty ladies!" "My Scoutaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hun!" "Last Scout. Last Scout. For Scooooout." And since Kate Bush was mentioned, "Running up that Scout! Running up that Scooooout. With no Scoutleemmms"

Watching films alone in an empty cinema, in a seat just towards the back in the centre of the row, is one of my greatest joys. I will go with approved movie buddies however.

I don't have any >.>

One of my cats melts like jello in a sack on a hot day when you hold him. When I'm alone, I dance with him because he lets me. He purrs like crazy and oozes about in my arms while the other pets look on like we're both nuts, but this cat is the perfect dance partner. He never minds if I miss the steps, and he's…

I constantly write tuneless, rhymeless, little songs to myself and sing them aloud, but I do that at work too...so I guess my strangest single behavior would have to be commenting on Jezebel all goddamn day long. (I do THAT at work, too, but I'm more secretive about it.)

I'm recently divorced and living alone for the first time ever. It's AMAZING. My ex husband was super critical and I am experiencing freedom like I've never known.

i have my own spot on a couch, nobody else allowed to sit there. I won't share my wine unless you bring food. I like going to movies and theater and travel alone.

2 main ones:

My first boyfriend (after I had been independent and single for years) told me while we were cuddling once, "See? Isn't this better than being independent?"

I'm with you enska. There's some serious shaming going on that is hitting home for someone who didn't managed to sort their shit out in their twenties while also finding time to have a child. I still want to though and don't want to feel irresponsible and shamed for doing so. Solidarity my friend. It should be…

I am sure the latter part of that sentence went something like: "...conception is challenging and requires medical intervention, there are higher risks associated with our pregnancies, we are not as physically capable and we may not live to meet our grandchildren." Having kids when we're older is possible, but this…

I think we're gonna have kids older and older, when we're just calmer, we're cooler, we're more collected.

Ugh, this girl again. You know, unless there is some sort of hypocrisy going on (the politician is married and preaches family values, for example), I don't want to know. Whatever they do between the two of them should be kept that way, and her publicizing and capitalizing on it is really low.

That said, if he engaged…

She's pretty terrible, period. She's yet to display any redeeming qualities.

Speaking of amazing... This picture from imgur.

I heard if a woman has had three children, and you put your ear to her vagina, you can hear the ocean.

No, it's totally true. Women who have had three or more children regularly have to pick their internal organs off the ground and stuff them back in. It's terribly inconvenient.

Whenever I feel like the world is terrible, I buy a new lipstick to cheer myself up, as if a new lip color will make my problems and stresses not recognize me.
