Hey Everyone. No internet for a month.. that was harder than quitting smoking. I was in Western Louisiana (far west of the Hurricane thahkfully), but I did get to me some evacuees. I have to say this, I miss my home when I am on the road, but at least its there when I come back. Look aound your room, imagine everything you see being...

Well, Finally took my long awaited road trip in Ezmerelda, the 1975 VW Bus. My ten year old son and I started out on a rainy Sunday morning. The prospect of camping out in the rain with a ten year old wasn't thrilling, and we promptly scrapped the idea of going to the coast first, because if its raining in Portland, it will be pouring...

Sometimes truth is stranger then fiction, really... I know people say this but there is one aspect of this job that is strange to the point of surrealism. My usual job here is plain enough: while a dredge moves sand from shipping channels to area that need it (ie beaches) I monitor for accidental killings of seaturtles. But what makes this job surreal is not...

Im back on track now, working on the house etc (my gas stove is now in the kitchen and hooked up! but that means my fridge is in my sons room until...

But...

Oh dating! Good for you. I havn't had a date since November. But then I've been busy, broke and havn't been out much.

Its Friday, and the week has slipped away. More and less done than I hoped. Depends on what I want to think about. I have decided that I really know nothing about dating, so every date is a surprise. That there are no hard and fast rules, because not only are we all different, but different people bring out different aspects of our personality.

Also,...

I love the silence in the morning getting ready while my daughter is sleeping. and then get up to play and get her breakfast. When she is at visitation, that silence in the morning can be awfully lonely. Silence does feel good when you get to think by yourself and feels even better when you are with someone and are silent together with no pressure to talk.
crunchmonkey:
Dating will always be fun, its just that people ruin it for themselves by expecting things and taking it too seriously.

"I hope she likes me", "Should I wear nice cologne for her" blah blah blah blah blah.

I overdid the housework thing. Hauloing chicken manure from the chicken yard into the garden beds, musta been 600lbs of straw and poop. So I am going to take it easy today, go have a few beers at the Horse Brass, and get to bed tonight early. I have to go get my antique stove tomarrow. Hopefully I can get it to fit in the...

well Im back in PDX. got the bus on the road, slept in my own bed (nice)

all my ex's stuff was gone when I got back. Its funny but although its sad it seems right. It feels like she left long ago, and now her stuff has left too.

I hope you have a safe trip!! smile
And I read your posts on the teenage pregnancy thread....very insightful.
Hope all is well, and I'll talk with you soon!! kiss
schoolgirl:
you missed some kick ass sushi!! but other than the whiskey sours, the gogo bar sucked. I don't know why i go there.
anyway, mmmmmmm yellowtail and eel. love

was bad moon ok? I didn't hear you to well, it sounded like she wasn't there when you showed up. We were worried about you guys.

anyway. next time. jersey. hang out. you choose. the east coast misses you already. it's exponentially less sweet.

yeah, way to go on the teen pregnancy thread. some lucky 9 year old gets to call you dad. there needs to be more rockin parents like you.

No huge enlightenment today, and frankly I am thankful for it. Just a little indegestion from an overabundance of cheese in my diet yesterday, and maybe a touch of a hangover. Probably nothing worth posting online. A little more coffee, then to work.

The whole dating life, as opposed to the partnered life is different. The biggest difference to me is that you have...

Thank you for the words of encouragement! biggrin
I'm proud of myself and that's all that should matter.
My brother is having the same problem with one of his exes. He finally told her not to call him anymore because he couldn't deal with it. frown
Have fun drinking this weekend, and have one for me, or 4. biggrin
