Oh yeah. For me, it went way beyond college.
I'm probably making dating mistakes right now! (Except for that I have dated in forever...)
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

I think the magic element I am missing is being able to identify the qualities I can now recognize in "the ones that got away" in new people that I meet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't have any one that got away. I mean, I'd have had to have them for that to happen, right? For a period of time you'd hope could extend past their ticket home?
So I'm free of that particular regret.
Moodblurbs. What a lame idea. It's dorky and inflexible. Give me an epaper screen I can control through my USB port (or bluetooth!) and then we're talking.
I'm down two fucking Imitrexes so far. And that's all I can have for the day. This really isn't fair.

ita are you going home for the holidays? I kinda fear you traveling right now.

Nope, not going anywhere, msbelle.
Why would you fear me travelling?

Allyson, you're already Jewish, so it even makes things easier.
For 2006, though, I might like to find The One That Sticks Around For A While And Makes Me Waffles.
Oh, I would like one of those for myself, please. Though, not Teppy's, of course. Oh, and I can get along even without the waffles.
I don't have any one that got away. I mean, I'd have had to have them for that to happen, right?
And again, today, I am ita. Third time, ice-cream (or lemon cookies, if you prefer them. We can get what we like, no matter what the phrase says).

Always Anti-fascist!
Well, you know, "at least she's Jewish."(My mom had this friend when I was tiny, and her family thought her husband was a doofus because he quit law school to be an artist or something and that is the only nice thing they could say, even though he was The Nicest Guy ever.) I believe they are still married, too.

My one that got away happened when I was 27 or 28.
My problem is that I don't actually meet many new people over the age of 21, since I work at a college.

cause you'd be alone and not in phone call of friends space for the travel time and possibly in lots of pain and I dunno, possibilities for major discomfort without proximity of a bed or a friend.
Me, I am in mother hen mode.

Great. My supervisor's being snippy to another office about something that our office fucked up. Also, our incredibly annoying office manager just sent an email to see if I could come to an office party -- gee, that sounds fun. No one can stand you, half the office is engaged in a cold war with the other half, and none of us is entirely comfortable with the New Big Boss. Oh yes, let's!
