hey I just found the missing sink scrubby in their bathroom! I wonder if this screwdriver I found is also ours.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Seriously, if R had never said anything, they would still both be alone. and they both look happy and content now. I know R is. And D, for the first time in years has a safe place to share his life.
I have two other friends, B and a Different D that are in their early 60's. Getting married next year. A very different story from above, but one that has also convinced me that taking chances is better than not.
The ability to be straight forward, and not waste time on games seems to be the blessing of love in later life. Not easy, but there is a lot to be said for being able to ask a question even though the answer might be yes, might be no might be maybe.

I've put myself out there before (notably on Valentine's day with the friend of an ex-summer-fling who had moved away) and, while rejection always sucks in the short term, I can't think of a time where I've said "I really regret taking that chance."
Regretted dating that a**hole? Yes. Regretted trying to date that a**hole? No. And, regretting trying to date that really cool, interesting guy? Certainly not.

I have no relationship advice. Really.
But I do have a place to live come July 1st. And I have my son registered for school. I have even been EXTREMELY NICE and gathered some rental info for STBX (see note above about not having relationship advice).
Tomorrow? Play day.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Hey, I took my then-soon-to-be-ex to the ER when he thought his appendix had burst while he was drinking with his girlfriend (it was kidney stones). I can't cast stones about being nice (sucker). (Gods, he's an asshole.) (Mine, not yours.) (Shutting up now.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've managed to keep my kitchen neat and clean, while actually cooking most nights, for about a month now. Yay!
Next long-term step: laundry. I'm horrible at keeping up with laundry and not letting it pile up.

I'm trying to convince myself to go to a party tomorrow. I hate not having a car -- there's no way for me to just leave when I feel like it's getting to be too much.
