Good Morning, Boys & Girls!

When he got my blog address, my friend, John, observed that as much time as I spend at the keyboard, I could write 4 books a year! He’s probably right, and you all know what I do with the word, “probably.” (If you don’t, you haven’t been reading my sig quotes closely enough.)

Was it John Cougar Mellencamp who sang, “I need a lover who won’t drive me crazy?” Clearly a mid to late Relationship Lessons song. And it doesn’t really matter if *I’m* pretty much done with all that drama trauma crap if I have someone around me who’s still into it. I am making more of my decisions based on how much of that I want to deal with… like, none.

At the same time, I’m encouraged in noticing that other people around me, even close to me, can have all kinds of drama going on, and I just can’t buy it. I know it isn’t real, doesn’t matter and that, well, they will grow out of it. I don’t mean to be condescending in the least. We all know how dramatic my life has been at times and at the time I thought it was almost fun, believed it was necessary, and had no idea how not to have that in my life. Now I do. I’m seeing face-to-face more. (Mirror darkly, and all that.) And nearly everytime I hear a clearly false statement, my mind says, “Is it true?” or “Who would you be without that story?”

Hmm, even that quote thing is kind of funny. I don’t really care to put the whole quote verbatim and get it right, must be my Scholar is asleep and/or is taking it’s rightful place as a *Secondary* more. Just an interesting thing to note.

I really want to know how you’re doing, what’s going on with you.

I realiize no one is as out there as I am and not on such personal topics. I’d really appreciate it, though, if you could take a stab at talking to me here. I’m really wanting to transition out of the emails a little.

You just click “Comment” below and it gives you a very simple space in which to do that.

Love,
