30 Years Later

You guys. I’m on my phone, so I’ll have to expound on my 30 year high school reunion when I can tap it out on my keyboard, but motherfuck if the CAPTAIN OF THE FOOTBALL TEAM, the most popular and...

It's Been Weird.

Guys, it’s been a very strange week. I can’t even begin to tell you the emotions and ups and downs of the last week…literally. I may have to bullet. Something horrible and sad happened in my ...

Advice Wanted/Needed!

Here’s the deal. I’ve been planning this France trip for months now. It’s not a biggie - just a week in Paris and Reims by myself…doing what I want, seeing what I want (or not), drinking wine a...

End of Long WKND.

Well, it’s hard to get into this Tuesday. Bluh. Where’d I leave off? Sunday. After debating back and forth about going to the bridge vs. trying to find a patio for 4th of July fireworks, [Athe...

4th of July WKND.

How I love long weekends. So, speaking of intense workouts, yesterday I went back to my Saturday morning workout in the park. This is one of the free deals, but it’s not the same organization. ...

Updates on Various

WORKOUTS: I have started a new temporary workout routine because I “won” a month of this bootcamp class. I put quotes around “won” because even though I did win the month in a silent auction, I...

The Short, Long Weekend

Happy Sunday morning! Where did this weekend go? I’m actually having a three day weekend because I took Friday off as well. It was a vacation day. It was a mental health day. And it turned in...


A couple of hours ago, a guy showed up at my office with a box that had a beautiful, gleaming and sparkly watch inside. He took it out and placed it in my hands. I put it on my wrist and he did...


Mid-June already?! I’ve started several entries this week and I can’t seem to get one out. Here are some bullets. Things have quieted down in the Sexy Excitement Department here in Gingerville...

Tell All Your Friends

This weekend was nearly one for the record books in that I had a lot of action and for the first time in a long time things seemed pretty sexy and exciting. Friday evening, I went out with [Athe...


So it hasn’t been all deafening silence in the man department since I’ve gotten off of the dating apps, though most of this is simply residual effects of the crack. So here are some updates on v...


I have not given up writing just because I don’t have a crazy dating story to tell. It just might take me a little longer to come up with juicy material since my hiatus. Bear with me. It’s been...

Tumble.*

Does anyone do morning pages AND journal here? Or even somewhere else? I’m finding it hard to do both and I just want some opinions as to what has worked for others? So. You want to know abo...


Had an early morning date this morning (8 AM). Was cool that we could meet for coffee and just see where it goes. So here’s where it went. Name: SAM, short for South African Man Age: 51. Stat...


It’s been a week. Exhausted from prepping presentation, boxing presentation (17 huge boxes worth of presentation, which covered three trucking pallets), awaiting presentation at location three st...


Better late than never! This date was nearly a week ago. I started this entry on the plane bound for my biz trip this week. The trip has been absolutely insane - my presentation materials ship...


This was to be the date with the fancy business dinner, right? The one where the details were fuzzy. After texting back and forth a few times (he wouldn’t pick up the phone to talk) it was...


Go back 2 entries to read Part 1 So much has happened I’ve almost forgotten where I left off! Oh, that’s right! HANGRY, as noters have said. Yes, we were sitting on the rooftop, drinking the c...

Interruptions!

I’m sorry. I don’t mean to leave you hanging in that last entry, but so many interruptions…so MANY interruptions! I had a meeting and needed to finish up work yesterday, so I wasn’t able to come...


So JKD. Read back a couple of entries if you want to know the backstory. Last night we had our second date. I wrote about it in my morning pages and ended up sounding like a smug and pretenti...


The Guy: Things have calmed down a LOT since I last wrote, and that’s a very, very good thing, I think. He was starting to freak me out with his multiple text talk of wanting to “make me the ha...

Cautiously Optimistic

Guys, I keep saying to myself, THIS is how it happens. I fall for the guy with the sweet words and the grand gestures and I always seem to turn out being a sucker. JKD is laying it on THICK a...

RAD: JKD
