" Do you ever need some &amp;amp;#8220;me time?&amp;amp;#8221; I struggled with that question last night, feeling obligated to go out and chase some romance when what I really wanted was to be selfish and take that overdue time alone. Between starting this blog, starting summer school, moving into a new house and going though a rocky break-up, I have felt so overwhelmed lately that the only thing I could manage was to sit on the couch enjoying the view, listening to classic rock and trying my best to forget about the world (that&amp;amp;#8217;s me in the picture doing just that). No calling girls, no going out with any wing men (or women) and no rekindling of any chemistry with an old flame. I wasn&amp;amp;#8217;t going to go to the gym, the bar, shopping or out to dinner. I know that last week I was worried about sitting at home, alone, broken-hearted and trying to get back in the &amp;amp;#8220;love saddle,&amp;amp;#8221; but you know what? Sometimes a Me Evening is exactly the type of recharging the soul needs in order to regain balance. In fact, shutting off your cell, laptop, closing the door and turning up the AC can be the most blissful, peaceful and enjoyable thing in the world. How do you know when it&amp;amp;#8217;s a good time to tune out the outside and tune into your inner-energy? And what&amp;amp;#8217;s your favorite way to spend a good night with yourself?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
