I'm about to head off to pick up D14, drop her at STBX's and then head out for dinner with my best friend. I attended church today and found out that we are having a Singles event in a couple of weeks, it sounds like fun! So, Whatis plans to go BUT not alone, I'm gonna ask my woman friend, who is also single, to go with me. She's always interested in finding places to meet decent men (no luck so far!) so we might be the perfect match for that evening. I'm not looking to meet anyone, just get out and mingle and have a good time. I'd rather go with a friend, it will be less anxiety provoking! Wow, my first singles event..."come and get it ladies, here's a man whose been dumped by his W of 17 years, come and pick over the remains!" OK, I need to work on that opening line but I've got time Honestly though, I'm actually impressed with myself here, despite having taken a few body blows this past year, when the opportunity comes up to try something new and a bit frightening I'm still up for it! Whatis will not be kept down and now, if only he could stop referring to himself in the third person! Later Dbers.
