I didn't do anything to GAL today, I know I should have but I'm having trouble starting. My best friend just got married, another one is about to deliver her first baby, and two others live out of state. I meant to take my dog to a new dog park this morning, but I overslept.

I did make an effort to go outside with my dog (she stays with me some weekends)and made small talk with some neighbors. Unfortunately, most of them know him, and recognize my dog through him, so it's bittersweet.

And his divorce attorney lives on my block, and our dogs are friends. So on our would-be anniversary, I got to run into his divorce attorney, and had to stand around awkwardly because our dogs kept trying to wrestle. Then I did something stupid, and texted him to tell him again how I hated that he picked This particular attorney to represent him because it's a constant reminder of our divorce. He basically ignored me, which made me feel worse, because at least when he argued with me I felt like he still cared in some way.

On the bright side, normally I would have just tried to keep provoking him to get a response (my weakness is being ignored), but I didn't go that far today. So that's something.
