Love Stinks

If love is the answer, could you rephrase the question? -- Lily Tomlin


Well, well, it's about that time again. Time for me to whine and moan about romance. I do this just every so often. I had stopped for a while when I was married, but since the divorce, I find myself falling back into the routine. Meet someone (or a couple of someones), spend time with them, get excited about the possibility, get rejected or learn something unwanted, get mad at the world. This is how I operate. I would say it's working for me, but..ahem...maybe not. I suppose it's just life, and there's no reason to be mad at the world. Just the same, although I had been excited about the prospect of dating again, I think I'm going to take a break. I've just been dating for a few weeks, but once you get a couple of guys in the mix, well, it just gets exhausting. Who likes what? Who works where? Who's not a serial killer? I mean, who can remember all this stuff? Some days I look at myself in the mirror and struggle to remember my name.

Anyway, the living history at Kings Mountain was fantastic! We watched movies in the amphitheater and had popcorn in our helmets before camping out in tents only to rise early and greet the public. I was fortunate enough to actually be able to speak to a couple of WWII vets, and it made the whole thing worthwhile! Come see my guys at the Charlotte Museum of History this Saturday from 10 - 5.
