I had a long conversation with Mae-Ann and a couple of close friends last night. The obvious conclusion was that in order to have any chance at making things better was to find a way to alleviate my depression. I went for an intake at the mental health section of a prestigious local hospital today. The result was that I was prescribed an antidepressant and am scheduled to begin counseling on Monday. I was assured that the medication didn't have any sexual side effects, which is very important to me. After all, I'm not about to give up being a stud at age 61, lol.
Taking this step gives me some hope that things will get better. That's quite an improvement from the increasing feeling that things were hopeless. I'm sure I have a tough road ahead of me, but at least I took the first step toward better times.
I mentioned in my last post that I've been having some physical problems. I had two tests relating to my digestive problems. The results showed that there was nothing physically wrong with me. It very likely is due to stress, anxiety and depression. I kind of suspected that this was the case, but I feel better that it was confirmed by these tests.
I spent some time with Lyrical yesterday afternoon. I needed to see her one last time before she moved to England in two weeks. She confided in me about her thoughts concerning this life-changing move that she's making. It's always meant a lot to me that she'swilling to share her feelings with me.
We also looked back on the different phases of our relationship. There are many memories of the things we did that I will cherish forever. Whatever else went on, the most important thing about us is that we're parting as friends. She'll still be on SG, so we can still continue our friendship, even though it will be strictly in cyberspace. I wish her true love and happiness. I will never forget her and the impact she's had on my life.
I want to once again thank all of my friends for the love and support they've given me on here. Things would have been much worse for me without all of you.

i guess making a deal like the Sox did with Colon, shows us that the economy really is having an impact on MLB. i mean the low risk/high reward is geat and all, but I guess I was hoping for at least one "sexy name" as Kenny has put it, to be signed in the offseason...
i certainly will be confused about the desire to reach the post season if they get rid of Dye
