You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Cass, can you jump on IM for a second, if you're still up?

I do have coffee. I also have finished planning my lessons. The nice thing about eight years of teaching experience is it gives you a wealth to draw on when you're a little behind. Thank goodness.

Nilly, it's so nice to (not) see you! I haven't posted with you in ages. Also, I made an icon out of that picture of us at Deb's (the one about which everyone made fun how big the drink looked compared to us). I thought you might like to see: [link removed]

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Nilly, the tag is just part of an IM discussion I had with a very dear friend the other day. She told me that I might want to keep the whole discussion, but especially that thought. So I guess it is mine.

My divorce is final now and DxH has moved to a different state. Which logically is good and emotionally is hell.

At the same time, I am learning how to start a friendship with the woman who married a very significant xBF of mine, who is still a dear friend. We talked on the phone for a couple of hours on Friday which was nice and plan to meet next weekend.

I am looking and touching and poking to see what of me, is really mine. And what parts are really owned by others.

I think this is the most significant thing many of us do in our lifetimes.

Kristin, it's just that I hardly ever get to post lately, not just with you - at all. Crazy semester, even after it ends.

Also, your link brings me to an error page which says:

You don't have permission to access /users/pix_kristin/31689.html on this server.

Cass, that line read like poetry, of the very honest and looking-inside kind. And then, the last line of your post did, too, for me at least. So I guess it is you and your words. I do hope things will be smoother for you as soon as possible. It looks like you're handling it so well.

Nilly, shoot! Let me try one more thing, and then I need to actually work.

Kristin, this one worked! And I love it. And the caption, too. I can't look at it without thinking "she's my size!".

I especially love each and every picture Buffistas posted of the couple of Saturdays I spent with you guys, because I couldn't take any pictures on my own on that day of the week.

Hee! I'm so glad you like it. And I was wearing heels in that picture, so I look a little taller. We both know I am not.

Okay, to work with me. Have a great day!

Nicest thing I have ever been told actually. I am trying to handle this with all of my sort of grace as the alternative.

As I said, "my size!".

Cass, you know those things that if you're worried you're not doing them well, most chances are that you're doing them well? I think, from all the way across the ocean, that attempting to do things with grace (your sort or any other) probably means that you do.
