Fishing season is over now. Sure, we made 550K... but it's bittersweet.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

This morning I had to travel into London to see a clinic about my medication, which recently caused me to have a nervous breakdown. They've dropped the dosage now, so all is good. Then, I went to clear the rest of my stuff out of my ex-girlfriend's house, and although we are supposed to be friends still, she found a way to have a go at me, tried to prevent me from leaving, and eventually got violent (with the wall, not me). Then I had to lug a large suitcase filled with my stuff through London (oh yes, even through the underground), and back up to Cambridge.

Way off the OP topic, but I have to say this just for one second:
Never ever ever, under no circumstances, ever never, ever throughout your life, ever ever never ever say those three words to a man before he tells you. It is my firm and proven belief that a woman should never beat a man to the punch when it comes to saying "I love you". No exceptions - ever!
That is one of the few rare pieces of advice I will freely dole out to women concerning men ...... and I have had several women thank me for this advice years later.
Do with it what you will.

That sentence was the shortest way to explain a complex situation I have already ranted and raved and cried about and dissected and have now given up on.
Even the poor bastard who most recently indulged me in going through it didn't hear the half of it all, although I profusely thank him all the same.
But, regardless, advice heard. Probably best to save myself the embarrassment of loving someone who in the end doesn't give a shit.

You know I keep telling myself the same, but every morning I wake up and pour bowls of cereal for my little heathens. I spend the first 20 minutes of everyday begging for hugs and kisses.

I got an invitation to go to the wrap party of Hit and Run History on the same day I got my summons for my final divorce hearing. Both are on the same fucking day!

Your kids and wife love you, Rhythm, and with good reason.
Now I get to sit and wonder whether everything he said to me over the past 2 years was a lie.
