This Fish Needs a Bicycle is a blog by Heather L. Hunter.

The vitals: Single. 29. Dallas, Texas. Overthinker and shower singer. Loves pink (the color, not the musician), a kitten named Sir Halitosis, broccoli and Q-tips. Requires Sunday afternoon naps and real, in-the-mailbox mail for ultimate happiness and is f ond of the phrase "Eat it or wear it." And, most ironically, really doesn't like dating.

MISSION STATEMENT

It's lovely to be a feminist and all. I've gotten in plenty a tizzy over the inequity of the female role in this bizarre universe . I have even tried out the independent "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle" track, and been quite good at it. Eventual ly, however, I settled upon this conclusion:

This fish needs a bicycle. If not for comfort, at least for entertainment's sake.

This is not about man-chasing or desperation. It is rarely even about dating. It's about me deciding that I can be well-educated, independent and happy and still see the need for someone else in my life. That's not desperate; that's real.
