Started therapy a couple of weeks ago. I dare say that it's starting to help, though it's a lot harder then I thought it would be. I'm just so proud of myself for taking that step. So proud in fact that after my first session I decided it was time to get that tattoo I'm always talking about. So off I went to Artistic Skin Designs where I promptly got the kanji symbol for courage tattooed on the inside of my left wrist and the kanji symbol for belief on my left foot. I'm already thinking about what to get next. It's an addicting practice, these tattoos of mine.

Let's see...my blood pressure is finally back down to normal after doubling my meds.

On the relationship front...things are pretty good I guess. With Rob, not so much. Taking a break, sleeping in separate beds, seeing other people and concentrating on ourselves. Or at least I am, concentrating on myself, I mean. He seems to be concentrating on the fact that I'm seeing other people. I don't suppose I blame him, but there is just so much stuff that he's ignoring in his life and not taking care of. he needs to get help for himself, find a full time job etc..I can't hold his hand forever and I need to know he can do this stuff on his own. So far he hasn't shown me anything.

So I'm dating these two guys, which is weird. I'm not used to dating more then one person at once for one thing. One is my ex who I was with about 6 years ago for three years or so. Things were good then, we were just young. things seem good now. He's an architect... Only catch his, his parents hate me because of various things that happened last time. I guess his parents aren't the one in the relationship. We're just taking things one day at a time and seeing what happens.

The second one so far has been rather amazing. It was supposed to be just a fun, get myself out there kind of thing. It's turned into much more then that, with feelings and everything. Frankly it kind of scares me. He's an incredible sweetheart and is SO nice to me. Opens all my doors for me, pulls the car up if it's raining so I won't get wet, pulls my chair out for me... I'm not used to it at all. There are all these sweet little compliments and things that he says that just drive me crazy. The catch on this one...he's 7 years younger then me, and I'm not sure how comfortable I am with that. Everyone says age doesn't matter...

So all in all, things have been good. Been staying pretty busy. Starting a new yoga class with my mom on Wednesday which will be nice. I miss the Gamerz crowd. A lot. Maybe we can all work something out soon?

Well, I could say because of past...mishaps...that you are too picky ;) One of them was actually an ex. The other one is actually from Gamerz... You just have to get yourself out there. Just spend time doing things you like and developing your interests and you'll meet people who like the same things. Gamerz is okay, but there aren't any girls there, so... Bookstores are good if you like to read, art museums, comics shops...

Perhaps I have been away much longer than I thought... I don't mean to venture upon insult here, but none of what I've read in this entry sounds like who you were when we first met. I guess time changes things a lot faster than I expect it to sometimes. Judging by what I've read here, I think I might need to get to know you all over again. Not that this is a bad thing, I guess I've just been too distant for a long while. My apologies for that, by the way; the job only lets me do as I please for two nights a week (usually Friday & Saturday nights). In case Rob hasn't said anything to you, I'm still with Maria and everything is going well, I just don't get out too often these days. Maybe one of these evenings you and I could go for coffee and talk for a while. My Brak impression is a bit rusty (if you remember the trip to Walmart from a long while ago), but hopefully I won't have to resort to that to get a laugh or two out of you. Your newfound interest in Kanji has caught my attention as well - I might need to find out where you got your ink done (I'll explain that one later). When it comes to Kanji, you should definitely talk with Maria. Each Kanji symbol has three different meanings (depending on dialect), so her tattoo on the small of her back means both "crazy" (as was intended), and "breath" at the same time. Anyway, if you feel like a caffeine fix on a weekend night sometime, Rob's got my number if you don't anymore. For now, Sayonara.

I'm not sure how to answer this really. I'm the same person I used to be, just a lot stronger and with a few new interests. And we have been apart for a pretty long time. I'm sure you have new stuff going on as well. Congrats about you and Maria. i'm really glad things are working out for you. I would love to talk to her about kanji and generally get to know her better. I do remember your Brak impression and the trip to Wal-Mart. I always had fun spending time with you, even if we were just having a great conversation. The tats were done at Artistic Skin Design on Madison. I'm curious what the other meanings for mine are now... I would love to get coffee with you sometime soon. I'll give you a call and see what works for you.
