Item #6 that sucks when you are single.

Another thing that sort of sucks about being single is that there are some dresses that I just can't zip up myself. I am going to have to ask my mom to do it.

Use a wire hanger.

Hey I've got a lot of annoying squirrels in my yard, you want 'em? I can let you have them for absolutely free!

NO WIRE HANGERS!!!!!!

The zipper doesn't have anything to attach it to!

I've used a wire hanger before in a pinch.

I don't think it would work in this dress. It is this little tab which is hard to hold on to.

I have never, ever zipped my wife. Now I feel like I've missed out on something.

If I was living with someone I would make them zip me up all the time.

That sounds dirty somehow.

After the morning I've had I would be pleased to zip my own dresses.

I'm sorry.

Hmmm you could certainly make a nice neighbour's day by asking them for a favour :-D

I knocked on my neighbors door but I don't think they were home. :(

Ha ha ha.

Good point. :P

Oh and don't forget necklace clasps!

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2008-12-14 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Those aren't so bad for me but bracelet ones. Horrible.

[identity profile] damncutekitty.livejournal.com 2008-12-15 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
Gah! Bracelets! I have a lovely tennis bracelet my former in-laws gave me. I hardly ever wear it because it's so difficult to clasp.

I don't think that's so much of a sucky thing about begin single as much as it's a sucky thing about living alone. If you had a roommate, they'd be able to help you out.
