What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

Right, Tep? My heart is broken and sad. :(

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I miss them a lot.

how do people date?

No idea. I usually get set up by a friend or meet someone through some fandom thing. I met my last girlfriend at work. I'm bad at meeting people without a buffer.

I'd like to have someone to share my life with, but I can't imagine anyone being okay with my general lack of interest in sex.

I sort of fell into a date this past weekend after a looooong dry spell. Looked up a few not-crazy-sounding personal ads in the city I was visiting for the day, replied with my phone number, and met for dinner with the one who got back to me. No fireworks, but a pleasant enough evening and it was good to get back into the game.

Online shit and apps, msbelle? Going to bars? Hiring a matchmaker? Hell if I know, I'm still single.

Hillary vs. Trump

Hillary is bear-hugging the Obama administration policy-wise so you can pretty much expect things to stay sort of like they are. Trump is proposing trade wars that could tank the economy and poses the seriously for real risk of nuclear armageddon. Yeah, they're pretty much the same.

I know nothing about dating. Avoid sociopaths I guess.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Every once in a while: when I'm sleepy and don't want to walk the dog in the cold and the dark, or when I need another hand to hold something while I hammer, I think how nice it would be to be married or something. But I really like my life. I have friends and family and a ridiculously bossy dog, and a job that keeps me mostly interested and mostly pays me enough to live here (despite the Nemesis). I don't know where I'd fit in a partner.

I think this means I'm selfish? Or something. Dunno.
