It’s been a few weeks since I moved in with TNG, and I hope I can say the worst is behind us. We’ve argued, I’ve cried, he’s hid, I’ve packed a bag (and then put it away), we’ve argued some more, I’ve cried some more… and now we finally seem to be getting into a
B-O-R-I-N-G. I’m happy for you… I really am. As close friend, writing partner and one of your biggest fans, true happiness is all I’ve ever wanted for you. Maybe you’ve (finally) found it. Maybe baking banana bread while folding laundry and debating the merits of shampooing the living room carpet is a hidden nirvana for
Well, I guess it was only a matter of time before it happened. The ring is finally on my finger… the move-in date is set… even the holidays are planned… And I’m totally freaking out. I was fine. Everything was calm (as calm as my life can be). I’ve been working really long hours lately,
Of course you’ll make it. You’ve already made it. The only question remaining is what exactly is this “it” you’re trying to make? Don’t ask me. My life is more defined by my divorce than it ever was by my marriage. My marriage was a sham, mostly because I had no idea who I was and
Every now and then, I stop and remember that The New Guy and I haven’t even known each other a full year. We met, we dated, we fell in love and now we’re getting married. But do we really know each other? I know there is no way for anyone to possibly learn everything about
The “truth” can be a funny thing. In a perfect world, it’s very simple.

Either Roger Clemens took steroids or he didn’t. Either I slept with
There’s a popular phrase that gets said a lot, in many different ways and I heard it again today: “If I had it to do over again…” Most often, it’s in reference to love or money, and today was no exception. I was at the car dealership dropping off my car. I got into a
If I had a chance to do anything over again, anything at all, I wouldn’t change a thing. Is this because my life is so wonderful that I have absolutely no regrets? Uh, not exactly. If I could go back and fix the mistakes I made the first time around, I wouldn’t have anything to
I’ve talked a lot about kids. To have them, not to have them, can I have them, do I want them, am I ever meet going to meet anyone who I would want to have them with… I’m currently on a trip where there are lots and lots of kids – and not just lots
I’ve talked a little bit about kids, too… To have them (already did), did it ruin my marriage (kids test, but they don’t destroy a marriage), would I change a thing (hell, no), is it the only righteous example of unconditional love in existence (without a doubt). Ask anyone who knows me how they would
