Man, I'm so far out of the loop, it's silly.

I wasn't aware you were gone, but it's nice to know that you're back.

Well, to be fair, you just ain't been right since Richter shoved your head through the ceiling.

We thought that might get the creative juices flowing again...  Get some new music out of him...

I haven't even heard of another show since then, though.

Dimo's goal is to work the Holiday Inn Ballroom in a pastel tuxedo.

Dimo and the Smooth Tones.

To be even fair-er, I aint been right since long before that...

We've had a couple small gigs I didn't think were worth advertising. We have a decent gig lined up April 2nd, I believe, at Firehouse 13.

An aside, while we've been playing shows consistantly, we did the math and figured that we haven't practiced since August of '09. But, my guitarist is converting his converted garage into a rehearsal space, so maybe we will bang out a few new tunes after all.

Damn, booked up the 2nd, have paid reservations.  (Major SCA event.) 

Let us know about the small ones, maybe some of us can come make 'em bigger.

Much better, thank you!

Now... I just broke up with Mr. Language and am entering therapy to work on my recent habit of, as E.O.T. so eloquently said, only falling for guys who have one foot in another woman's vagina. I am also working on my anger issues. That means that, if all goes well, in a few months there will be no more blood-filled teeth-gnashing Destruct-O-Nigel rage.

This is fair warning, I think. In  the meantime, if anyone is being FUCKING STUPID ON THE INTERNET, especially in the areas of epidemiology or nutrition, let me know because I have an itch to BE RIGHT.

Got any tips on that one?

Hahaha, no. Since I caught my now-ex  husband cheating on me and learned the Horrible Truth about our marriage, I have managed to fall in love with three different guys in a row who had an attachment or fixation on an ex. With this last one, I think he's pretty much over her at this point, but the residual baggage from that relationship got dragged into the beginning of our relationship and pretty much killed it before it got off the ground.

IN OTHER WORDS, I OBVIOUSLY HAVE ISSUES.

It's the best metaphor, ever.

Well, that blows.  Everybody's got baggage, but they really should be required to at least weigh it in before boarding the next plane.

(That being the reason that, despite the occasional temptation, I'm not getting myself involved in anything until I've had a good look through my OWN luggage.  I've been known to do some spectacularly stupid shit on the rebound.)

When are you women going to learn?

The only way to deal with an ex is to drop him in a tar pit.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I have to confess that I am holding out some hope to someday reconnect with Mr. Language. I have never gotten back together with anyone, ever, so it would be a first for me, but maybe if we both work out some shit on our own we'd be able to make a real go of it. He is a good one, but the baggage has to be gone.

Once I have the last of my shit out of the house and the paperwork signed, I will not need to attempt to remain on any kind of speaking terms with him.  (We're trying to get out of this without the lawyers having EVERYTHING.)

Once everything is done, I shall endeavor to drop him in a mental tar pit, and cease to recognize that he exists.

Going back to an old relationship is like finding out the milk has gone bad, and putting it back into the fridge to see if it's any better next week.

That is normally how I regard past relationships. Oh man, ex #2, father of my children, tried to hit on me a while back. I threw up a little in my mouth.

It's just not normally possible for me. However, in this case, nothing bad happened. Nothing really soured it. We just hit a roadblock we couldn't get past together, and we both have baggage that needs to be repaired and set aside before we can move forward. He is an awesome person, we love each other, and if we both do whatever it is we need to do in the meantime to take care of ourselves and be healthy people free from past hangups (him) and insecurities (me), I think there's a really good chance we could make things work in the future if we start over. Which is a big if... but it's not like I'm going to regret making myself a better person, no matter what happens.
