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.

I've only gotten as far as sexting.(Sometimes fun...sometimes, like, really? Aw, dag, no Congress for me, for sure now.

re: dating. I literally tripped over mine, so watch your feet.

how do people date?

If you figure it out, let me know.

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.

Damned if I know about the dating thing. I've been married 43 years spread out between 3 people. None of them were intended. The first one I moved in with to get out of my house at 17. After living together a year I decided we had to either get married or go our separate ways because I was tired of being estranged from my family. He said sure. 12 years later I met someone that I had such an extreme attraction to that I asked for a divorce after knowing him only a week. Three years later he died. Of course I swore I would never ever consider dating much less marrying again. Within 6 months I was living with DH#3. (met in college and thought a fling would be a good distraction from grief) We celebrated our 26th anniversary earlier this year.

Never was in it for the long term, but apparently I am long term girl. I know so many single people that I think would be great couple people, but aren't for unfathomable reasons.

Damn, I did it. I just said the thing I told myself not to say. The person told me since I like paying taxes so much I should send all my money to the goverment and let government decide what I should get, and that while education is goverment's job, there is already too much money being spent on it. It was a toss-up between "move to Somalia" or "your nihilism is refreshing." I went with the later.

Snerk. Well done, WS.
