Single's Decisions




Life is about choices and everyday I feel like we are given choices and we often or not, make the wrong one.

I make the wrong ones. In everyday things like what to do, to where to live, to what company to work for, where to get a tattoo, what to get, my life is constantly faced with choices, and I, most of the time make the wrong one. And I keep wondering what was the other option, what if that option was the better one?

Today for example.

I wanted to eat brunch. Couldn't decide where to eat #brunch. So I chose Starbucks. Not good. They didn't have the good muffins at this Starbucks and my latte was bland. Bad choice.

Then, what movie should I see? I saw Duplicity. Two hours of watching Julia Roberts act like some kind of super smart lady. Bad choice.

Then, what do I eat. By this time I was famished from no breakfast. Instead chose to drive to Buckhead instead of Midtown or Inman Park which is filled with breakfast places. But all the #breakfast places had shrimp Benedicts or crawfish Benedicts. I really just wanted an English style breakfast, with eggs sunny side up and slices of toast halved with the tea cups of coffee. English style breakfast. How hard can that be? Everyone wants to put a spin on breakfast, make it Creole or Southern style or something style. I just want plain English style breakfast preferably in a place with a patio so I can get some sun. Huummmph!

I ended up going to Seasons 52. Spent an insane amount of money for food I didn't enjoy. It's dieters food. If I was on a strict diet, I wouldn't show up at a restaurant. I would cook some healthy crap at home. It was a waste of money, my time, my whole freaking day!

Once again, it was a choice of where to go, what to eat and I ended up picking the wrong thing, choosing the wrong restaurant, just basically making the wrong fucking decision, fucking up my life some more. It's the little decisions that define us. If I can't be lucky enough to choose the right place for lunch or the right movie to watch then, how can I trust myself my judgment enough to choose the right company, right profession, etc. How can I?
