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.
all your d's are belong to Iris!
that is all.

megan, that is brilliant, and so true.
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.

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.)
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.

The rental folks have had a good giggle when I explain the situation and I have gotten "Wow, you are really going out of your way". No, going out of my way would be giving up my Saturday play day to look some more. I've looked in the area I'm living - the rest is up to him.
I'm hungry. I've only had a banana and a couple of cups of tea. And yet, I have no motivation to hop in the car. I should just suck it up and do "Room Service by Jeeves". The company is paying, right?
Ouch! I just spent almost $100 filling the tank on my work truck. Now I'm sitting at the car wash.
It didn't scan very well, but I found a picture of me from my senior
prom
when I was cleaning out stuff at Mom's the other day.
