Love Rears It’s Ugly Head
I get a call from my attorney Thursday afternoon. Not one of the paralegals, mind you, but the actual lawyer. I’ve been calling his office for the last 2 weeks trying to get my summer visitation with The Boy to get put on the proverbial front-burner, since his last day…

approaching zero hour
Time, as it often tends to do, has snuck up on me. Two days from now is The Boy’s last day of school. Three days from now will be 11 months since the day I left Charleston; and I don’t feel any closer to being “officially divorced” than I did…

A question of trust
This is definitely uncharted territory for me. I know I haven’t been in very many relationships in my life, but this is the most insecure I’ve been in any relationship I’ve ever had. Not once, not for one second, did I ever question the STBX, or doubt that she loved…

Post-birthday beguilement
The Auteur came out to my neck of the woods last night for a little birthday celebration. We hung at one of those upscale multiplexes that are in vogue right now; spent way-too much money at their in-house glorified burger joint and didn’t even bother seeing a movie. I knew…

On the 14,245th day, I reflected.
I apologize in advance if this entry sounds like the liner notes to an album; but I think my heart is in the right place. Yesterday, for those who haven’t picked up on my math skills, was my 39th birthday and this is the youngest I have felt in years.…

three certainties in life
Ben Franklin once said that the only two certainties in life are death and taxes. On this Tax Day 2013, I would humbly submit a third absolute to be added to this list: getting financially fucked up the ass during divorce proceedings. For the first time since actually leaving South…
