Dear Blog Family My birthday was epic! It went on for a record period of time and there were lots of things that happened during it. Nearly four years into blahg-ville, I can't possibly be dishonest about what went down over the past 48-hours. On the actual day of my birthday, I woke up in the morning and sobbed into my journal. I sobbed over a few Christmas pasts and I also spent five to ten minutes boo-hooing over the present state of general...
My first husband was/is a dick to me. I'm not saying he's a dick all around, on the contrary - he is incredibly engaging, dare I say charming?

Namaste blog tribe Today is my last day of the first holiday I've had in nearly two years. It's also my lover's birthday. I can't lie, I worked a bit this week... remotely. I am perpetually baffled by humans still attending offices for means other than meeting attendance in 2013. I digress... My holiday concludes with an evening outing in store.
