Thanks for the call offer; I'll give it a try. I ended up just getting to bed b/f I did too much damage, and this morning I woke up and wrote three pages of my novel. Maybe distressing days are good for my creativity!
And I have had a better day today.
I talked to a friend today who told me how this spring, four years after her divorce, her college boyfriend contacted her, told her he had loved her all these years and was now divorced. Long story short: they are now madly in love and dating. So, even though this current process isn't over, there are interesting stories of possibilities abounding.
