ONE. I got a puppy! Oh my lord, I am now the proud, proud caretaker, roomie and BFF of a darling bundle of joy. Her name is Martini and she’s a Chiweenie, and I’m in LOVE with her. Thanks to [A...
Finally. Stories from China
As promised: Started this entry on November 8th: At Pudong airport in Shanghai awaiting my flight. The trip is over but the long haul home. It’s been interesting, to say the least. It’s been ...
10 Things
I’m in the middle of writing my China story. Don’t know why it’s taking me so long - guess I’ve just had so much to do since I’ve gotten back. And I’m still tired. Still just barely jetlagge...
We Do What We Can
Greetings from Guangzhou, China! Internet is spotty and I can only get Facebook here and there. Instagram is blocked because of all of the protests in Hong Kong. So, because I’m so addicted, I...
In a Bizarre Twist of Fate
I started Friday night with a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. Nothing to do and nowhere to go, really. I started walking and walking. I walked to the park and walked around it about t...
Bits and Pieces

Ten Things.
While I’m weary of talking about my love life, I do have a date tonight and I may…MAY be doing a Rate-A-Date at some point in the near future. I’m a bit leery of this dude. We’ve only texte...
A Plan.
I think I have a plan with regards to this SP thing: Operation End It All – Once and For All (OEA –OFA). I know that this is not the most sophisticated plan, but I’m leaving for China in one mon...

So Here's the Thing...
Turns out, I wasn’t doing that well with the SexyPants stuff. Over the last few weeks I have been obsessing over him and the loss of the relationship as it were and what the fuck is it now? He ...
Eight Things
1. It’s a numbers thing: Weight is finally heading back to normal. I don’t know why I’m surprised that my weight inches up when I take my eye off the ball. I’ve been writing this stuff down for...
Elegant Exit
There’s a term that the new CEO at my company uses to address a portion of the business that is no longer viable and we want to get out of smoothly, and that’s “elegantly exit”. In other words, ...
Weekends = Crazies
…and I do literally mean mentally ill-grade crazy. Let’s see. Where shall I begin? Last weekend. Crazy #1: I’d gone for my big weekly walk-and-talk with SP (no grief, please – it’s therape...

I've started no less than three entries this week and I can't seem to get the words out. Today, August 8th, would have been my 6th Wedding Anniversary with Bryan had we married. How strange to ...
Updates on Various
Work: Maybe I’m just bored, but I’m just not into it right now, and I really, really should be! Right now is the time I should be striking while the iron is hot. I should be spending more of my...
Action Steps

Listy
Whelp, weekend has come and gone and I did have a nice one. And yes, I saw SP. And I’m beginning/continuing to feel a little bit foolish. Thing is, I do miss him when we’re apart. And I do wo...
Lost Weekends
Wrote an entry yesterday that just made me want to gag, so it’s private. Over the last couple of weekends, I’ve had amazing, amazing times. First, it was a lost weekend in a town close by – fan...
Stalemate
Let's backtrack six weeks. I was on my way to feeling OK about where I was in terms of grief. Well, maybe I wasn't. I was still on the floor and crying my heart out most nights, but when I was...
Back From China
Went to China and then came back. I normally dread the trip and this time was no different. These trips (I go to China twice a year) are extremely stressful as I have so much to get done while...
Mega Updates
So much, so much to update. I guess I’ll just dig right in. The Bulldog has been hanging around and it’s been fun. I guess the last time I wrote, he was in and out and in and out. And it was ...
Too Heavy
I am an idiot. Yes, I’ve heard back from The Bulldog, but it has been in fits and starts. In a matter of a couple of weeks, we’ve gone like this: Texts --> Innuendo Texts --> Sexts --&...
