Sampiro, I apologize if I’m bringing up a sore subject for you, but whatever happened to that young guy (early 20s) you were dating? Was there a breakup? Amicable or not so much? Alas, I can’t find a link to that thread for the life of me.
Oh, and Sampiro, whatever happened with the Mamaleum? Did Kathy finally come and take the crap she wanted? (Or didn’t want but didn’t want you to get rid of?)
Ah, that ended years ago. It was mostly amicable split and we email once in a blue moon. It ended with very hot drunken sex in a D.C. hotel room. I would have enjoyed it more had I been a participant, but I’ve said too much already.
I was far more bothered by the age difference than he was (I was about 39 and he was 21), but it was enough that in the future I don’t plan to date outside of a decade’s SD. OTOH, at 42 I’ve pretty much decided that I don’t have a soul mate- at least not romantically- and will probably remain single until I begin decomposition, and I don’t say that in a self pitying way since it doesn’t really bother me. (Of course, the fact I think prostitution should be legalized plays into this a bit as, while I’ve never used it personally, I think ultimately it’s a far cheaper and less complicated way to have sex with 20-something good looking partners.;))
Short answer, nope. But we got the ceiling fixed. Baby steps, baby steps… I’ve pretty much decided I’m stuck there until I take another job and move, at which time it’ll be sold.
How about the wallet that was found in the house that had the name and some other info about a guy who, last I checked that thread, still hadn’t been found?
The Devil’s Grandmother, thanks so much for asking. It’s always surprising to stumble across a thread with your name in it and find out you haven’t posted there yet. So finding this has brought a much needed smile to my day.
That said, I’m sorry to report that I’m actually quite a bit worse off. The spouse’s insurance has taken a nose dive and the ‘professional help’ is no longer our network. Which sadly means I can’t afford it otherwise. < sigh > On top of that, right before the switch, my medications had been changed and we were waiting to see what happened to make adjustments. Unfortunately, there’s been no positive results and of course since that’s been a while now, I’m pretty much doing without.
Until we can come up with me a plan to start over again, I’m stuck. The only option at my disposal for immediate help is to go back in the hospital and, just like I was in November, I’m resisting the idea because of how damaging the last visit was. Regardless though, I’ve got to do something soon. I almost had a meltdown in the pit a week or so ago, so this has even begun to effect the one life I have… online. < bigger sigh > If it keeps up, I’m sure I’ll be back in within another month. I’ll just keep my fingers crossed that this time it does some good.
So, that’s me. Again, I apologize for being so damn depressing. I thought about fibbing so I wouldn’t upset anyone, but I figured after some of my recent appearances here, the jig would be up relatively easy soon enough. Plus, after being so kind and generous to start this thread to ask in part about me, I feel you deserve my honesty. Hopefully someday I’ll have some good news to share.
Thank you again for your concern, help and support. I really do mean it when I say this place means the world to me.
I can’t find the thread but I’d like to know if that guy ever told his friend that his wife was cheating on him. The evidence was a neighbor (sister of the Doper) who’d see the wife’s boyfriend’s car parked at the house overnight while the husband was out of town.
Oh! And the Doper who wondered why a neighbor kept a second story window open in cold weather!
I’m gonna start bookmarking threads that leave me curious.
