For the past week, I've been off work. Several things led to this, some of which haven't been resolved, at least to my satisfaction, but that will work itself out soon. Anyway, on Thursday, I went to orientation for a new job. Same as the old job, but with a different company. I start on Monday night at 8pm, work 3 12 hour days. This means that I will have my weekends completely off. I am grateful for the time and I am even more grateful for the week I've had off. I realize though that I truly want someone I can be with for the rest of my life. I need to fix all of me that needs fixing and pray that it's not too late for me.
...at midnight, it all seems so simple. I've gained a little bit of weight since my last job, but since the next will involve quite a bit of walking, I don't think it will be a chore to take it off again. I get to get my dental insurance back. That's a plus, though it will take time again to get anything done. Damned waiting period. Still, it will be good to get it back.
I need a woman, I've come to realize, who is as eclectic and strange-
No, strange really isn't the proper word...strange, kinky, open, intelligent, sassy...as I am. That is, obviously, quite difficult to find. I don't even know where to begin to look. The dating sites might have girls like that, but they're generally too timid to admit it. The kink groups here in Columbus are too...forward? They admit to having fun and wanting to get to know *some* people. I am, quite obviously, not on their list. Well, offline, at least. Those that have finally met me I never hear from again. Strange, no? No, not really. At least not to me. It's far too common on this end. Besides, I don't really want to play. I want a mate.
I want a lot. I want a wife, a love, a partner...children, eventually. But not too eventually. I would like to be young enough to enjoy them. Young enough to embarrass them. Old enough to know better, though, I suppose. Dying old in my bed, my grandchildren and children surrounding me...
And all I can seem to look forward to is tomorrow. And people wonder why I'm so cynical.
...oh, don't worry. I'll sleep it off and blahblahblah...nothing ever changes...
