    The Kid Goes Digital

    Yesterday, I stepped into the digital dating domain and bought a 3 month membership on match.com. I set up an account earlier this week, but a user can’t do much beyond window shopping without buying some kind of membership. Aye, there’s the rub. Of course, the fact that a few…

    The Ivy Incertitude

    I’ve made passing references to Ivy in previous entries but I haven’t gone into much detail, so here goes: I met Ivy last summer at the Kenny Chesney concert. If memory serves me correctly, she may have been the first person sis introduced me to when we started tailgating that…

  • just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale…

    I had a still-married dream last night. The STBX and i were married and putting together a garage sale. It was a fund-raiser for radioactive children – or some stupid shit like that. Anyway, things were going well but just like the 17th minute of any episode of Gilligan’s Island,…

    denouement

    I’ve been a way from the blogosphere a little too long. Let’s see what I can do to right that. Friday night was another one of the local social club‘s monthly happy hour events. Even though these things only last three hours, the group of people that sis and I…

  • Counterstrike

    With the Boy’s Easter break  about 6 weeks away, I called the STBX last night to discuss visitation.  Here’s a paraphrasing of said conversation – to the best of my memory: Me:  So the Boy’s Easter break is coming up.  Under the separation agreement that you had written up, I…

  • kiss me, Kate…

    I know it’s a little late for Valentine’s Day but here is some eye candy. I could probably come up with a dozen witty one-liners for this, but I’ll let it speak for itself.

  • Solving the Scourge of the Short-haired Girl: A Modern Icarus? idolatry? or sabotage?

    I’ts been a little more than 24 hours and I haven’t heard from SHG. It ain’t gonna happen. I really didn’t know how this was gonna go either way. I could foresee her both calling me back and not calling me back. So I really didn’t know what to expect.…

  • message misfortune

    Well, I called her. I called SHG.  At least the number she gave me – which was a Sprint number. i think she said she had Sprint on her cell phone. I left a voice mail. That’s all I can do… It’s funny because it got me thinking – about…

  • an interesting night…for all too many reasons…

    Another happy hour with the social club has come and passed. I took some advice from the bathroom graffiti tonight and “avenged my dreams”. SHG showed up. just when I thought she wouldn’t. I got her number, or “A” number I should say. I tried to call it while at…

  • Why husbands who share household chores miss out on sex

    Why husbands who share household chores miss out on sex Of course, in my case, I split the household chores, did the “manly stuff” and it STILL wasn’t enough for the STBX.  This is just further evidence that it’s possible to do everything right and still fail.  There’s just no…
