Seska, travel~ma to you. Traveling is stressful at the best of times; sounds like you've had a lot of asshats to deal with.
Here's a non-sequiter: the other night I dreamt I was dating my HS boyfriend again, he of the alcoholism and mental issues (lovely guy, though). We've recently gotten back into touch on FB. It's been 15 yrs since I've seen or talked to him, and I still have some feelings for him. It's just the way my personality is - I know this, I've been working on accepting it, but boy is it a PITA from time to time. And HELL NO I won't be discussing any of this w/ KBD. I'd love to try and have some kind of friendship with HS BF, but I get the feeling from the time it takes him to respond to my messages that he's not really interested. And that makes me a bit sad. Which then makes me @@ at myself.
Anybody else have The Crushes That Never Die?
The Crushes That Never Die?
Oh yeah. Guy I LOVED in 6th grade. To this day, when I run into him my heart just freaks out and I'm surprised I can even form coherent sentences. The couple of times Joe and I have run into him at the grocery store or summat, Joe laughs and laughs after.
Guy from high school band. He was a senior when I was a sophomore and beyond being nice to me, never gave me the time of day. I'm sure I mooned spectacularly and obviously over him and I would probably die of mortification if I ever ran into him. Still... that's the one I still wish would have noticed me, way back then. I always fell for the unavailable/unattainable ones. I wonder if that was a defense mechanism on my part?
It will be January 23rd at Ramsey's at the Club in Toluca Lake.
Woo hoo! Calendar MARKED.

My HS not-quite-boyfriend, for sure.
Joe laughs and laughs after.
this is why I love you two.
Yeah.
For extra fun they're all The One That Got Away, and forget about the "best revenge" cause I'm this...what do I possibly know about "living well"?
good luck on private insurance Hil. I was rejected by three different insurers because as a child i had asthma, and migraines in adolescence. Neither were current conditions when i applied. I even kept the FMS diagnosis off my chart entirely but those other two "pre-existing conditions" apparently made me scary enough that no private company would offer me coverage. After being rejected twice, no one else would even talk to me. I have to have a group policy through work.
eta: ymmv. things change. if you're willing to shell out over 1k a month you can probably find something. i'm trying to not make this into a rant about our private health insurance system but it sure is hard to ignore how much the sytem screwed me over when i was young and healthy and not part of group coverage.

Had one or two die after 15 years or so....
