My gosh people. I just couldn't stand it anymore. I was getting claustrophobic under all that posting. Nothing lights up a Firefly like the Urge, eh?
Oh, and shipping off a hasty Hello to Traveler. Rarely in the same place at the same time and I don't want you to think I don't think of you now and again.
And Penguin, you're one of my favorite entertainers. Hugs to ya, Pal.

Please carry on. We'll find a new imponderable somewhere along the way, I'm sure. We always do.

Place my body on a ship and burn it on the sea,
Let my spirit rise, Valkiries carry me.
Take me to Valhalla where my brothers wait for me.
Fires burn into the sky, my spirit will never die.

Hey Jonny were we making you uncomfortable? But these things should be talked about, you know! Openness, it's what we're all about.
And I am going to bed, just as soon as I can get 'Sex and Music' out of my head. (Great David Wilcox tune; give him a look some time)

For me, it is friends. Living, breathing, goin' out to dinner/shop/see movies friends.
A few years ago, Husband and I went through a serious rough patch, and we separated for a few months. In the years leading up to that separation, I neglected my friendships just trying to keep my head above water. I was simply unable to take care of my infant son, my house, work 40 hours, and deal with my dissolving marriage AND keep friendships alive.
Some friends understood, and stood by me...but most didn't. They were simply too concerned with their own lives/children/jobs to be able to be there for me. Those relationships are irreparably damaged. I have online friends, here and on other sites I frequent. I have a few girlfriends across the country I talk to via phone or email now and again...but it isn't the same. I focus now on the Husband, the Tidbit...but I know that face to face friendships are missing in my life.
I am trying to reconnect with some of these women.
But somehow...this has really made me realize that maybe they weren't my friends to begin with.

re: Emotional separation.
I haven't been in touch with those things (emotions) in years, and I cannot specifically remember when it started. Caused more'n a few problems in my marriage as well. I really just don't feel anymore.
Time to go home and go vote now, been a long day.

I guess proritising how we dole out our heart should be first and foremost. I am guilty of trying to help a friend to the nth degree and am currently still suffering in fiscal and emotional debt for it. I am always amazed at the folks who are able to manager their home, family, SO, work, school, etc, etc pretty much every day.
Sometimes reconnecting after some of these people realise how selfish they were is good and bad. Good because your hard work is finally justified. Bad because deep down some of those folks use people up, not just use them. Give it a try, just be cautious.
ADD: Have fun at the polls RIMG. And please be grateful for what you have. Appreciate every moment spent with the folks you love. I say this because I'd give alot to have my own family and miss the ones no longer with us.

CMH- I'm glad you had a good experience at that high school. Most of my kids grow to be great successes( I define that as having a job and a life that makes them happy) I always worry about the ones who don't make it and I feel awful when one of mine falls far enough to end up in jail. I don't think ANYONE is beyond help. Sometimes I am not the one who can help them , but there is always hope:)...and I don't think you're beyond help or even so far gone. You just need to find a way to behappy and work past some of the anger you have from previous damage:)HUGS
NV- I think the word toxic applies to those people who bring no goodness or joy into the world and drain the life from others. Sorry you had that in your life:)HUGS

I honestly hold (very little) ill will towards the folks who weren't there for me. There's only so much someone can do for someone else. I'm okay with that. Since Husband & I reconciled, I've made some new friends...but they don't have the history I had with my "old" friends.
They weren't there when we were 19 and trying to sneak into the 'Vous (The Rendezvous Inn, a famous Univ Maryland watering hole). They don't remember that breathless phonecall I made at 23 when I met this great guy who is now my Husband of 12 years.

Not at all. It was the volume, not the content. Please! (and remind me not to feel all shy and embarrassed next time I make even a slight hint of suggestive humor in your direction! I was being prudey for no reason it would seem...)
And, um, sleep tight little one, once you do sleep.
