So I have the D papers sitting on my newly assembled desk. Our initial court date is set for the 20th. W sent me an initial draft of the property division. There are no surprises. We agree on everything in there. If we can get the forms in before the 20th we can avoid going to court altogether, which just seems unnecessary and expensive. The clock started ticking when I got served, so if we get the paperwork in on time we will be officially D'd on Oct 10th. I'm not happy that I have to do ANYTHING to make the D happen and I'm in no rush to get this paperwork filled out, so I'm just sitting on it. I'm tired of dealing with stuff that is forced on me. So there it sits.

Talked w/ DB coach Jodi right before I moved. She suggested I write W a letter. I'm not feeling like doing that either right now.

Other than avoiding the paperwork, I'm doing surprisingly well. I'm more or less settled into my new place, though it feels like I'm house-sitting for a friend. I expect that will change eventually. I used to live just down the street here in the big city, so it isn't a completely new neighborhood. I like the area. My insanely reduced commute is a nice bonus as well. I get 4 hours of my day back. What to do with all this new found time? Internet gets hooked up tomorrow, so I can stop "borrowing" it from the neighbors. Haha. My local friends are all thrilled I'm back in town and are really supportive of my move and are more than happy to do social things with me. So that has been fun, too. I'm actually fun to be around.
