I just came home from a fun evening...and I was...all by myself!
This may be a first.
Right now as I write this I am trying to remember going out like this in the past. This is the first time in a very long time that I have gone out as a single woman.
Tonight I started my evening with my 2 girlfriends. We often get together for a Corona "Lite" and lime after work. I took Argo over there and it was nice, because he is very comfortable there with the whole family, and he will stay in the yard. the kids like him and it is really nice to have a place where we can both relax, and it isn't our house.
En-Ee-Ways....
I have been having fun going to Poetry Readings a few times in the past few months. It is really a great entertainment value, as they say. Tonights show was a hilarious, ribald event...the main speaker was a popular lecturer at University. The room was packed with students with a sprinkling of colleagues and general public scattered about. I got an e-mail from a girlfriend today. She is the one who went to the artshows with me. I told her about my stupid feelings of anxiety...the "waiting by the phone" feeling. She said that the key is to stay "Authentically Busy"
Wow. There is that word, "Authentic" which is really the key to everything...
This is just part of the whole "GAL" thing. As we always say, DBing is ultimately for yourself.
Tonight I had to force myself to go to the Poetry Reading...but once I was there, I was so glad I had! I learned how to say some naughty things in Latin! Domino Vobiscum!
heh heh...
I had my evaluation phone call from the insurance yesterday. I have new insurance so I had to get screened to see if I qualify for therapy...The questions are interesting and definitely depict a spectrum. So while I do not feel I am a danger to myself or others, I do feel like it would be good to talk to an impartial listener as I navigate the dating scene and other issues. But that wasn't what made the evaluator take notice. It was my "financial distress". The way the interview was handled made it so obvious what is covered by the plan. Hmf...
Also had a good business contact today. Need to follow up on that...
*sigh*
Why cant we just wave a magic wand and all of our problems would be solved?
In-Ee-Ways...
Feeling tired.
