I feel the need to start this off with an apology...

I've been neglecting my SG friends lately. I know I've missed a couple of birthdays and there have been an awful lot of emotionally charged blogs that I wanted to leave comments on, but the right words weren't at my fingertips. I just hope you're all doing well and that the things that have had you down pass quickly on to bigger and better things.

I stayed out late on a "school night" this past Monday. There was a screening of "The Big Lebowski" at a bar downtown. A friend of mine works there and--knowing my affinity for The Dude--made sure I was reminded that it would be on, along a drink special on White Russians. So...2:00 in the morning with a head full of 8 or 9 "Caucasians" isn't an ideal time or condition to go to bed when you have to work in the morning. Luckily, I suffered no ill-effects the next day. I actually felt quite good, which is a bad thing. It will only encourage that sort of behavior in the future. Not good...no, not good at all.

The only other noteworthy event of recent days is "The Request".
The Request came to my little email in-box last Friday. It was from the source of my garmonbozia ("pain and suffering"), my ex-fianc. She's seeking advice for a friend on what to do/not do when your husband goes "cold" which is what I did about 5 years ago. I don't know what to tell her. I went numb in our relationship for reasons I don't even understand...but I do know what it's like to wake up one morning and just not be able to "feel" anything for the person laying next to you, no matter how great they are. It sucks. I wrote back and told her that I would try to explain it all the best I could. Hope it helps...
