Some time last week marked the 5 year mark since Winnie* and I broke up. There have been years I didn't notice the day go by. It is always like I have won a battle when a day or two passes before I realize the event has gone by. It is somewhat difficult because there are a few events that have happened around here that they always mark the anniversary of on the local news. There is a thin sliver of connection between the Winnie* events and the local events so there are always reminders.
This year I knew that it was the day, mostly because I thought to myself, "I should write an entry about this day." Most of the day passed by without a thought.
The day will come when I see her out some place, say hi, have a nice little conversation and then walk away smiling.
Encompassing this past week were a few normal thoughts about is there someone out there for me. I am happy to say that I found a potential one, FLW*. Not that we have a date or anything. I just found a woman that I could date. I met her while doing something teachery, but she is not a teacher. Like most times, the idea popped into mind almost instantly that she was a girl I would like to date. She helped me out with something and moved on. Later I sparked up a little conversation (a small victory).
Now the realest perspective: (1) It is likely I will not see her again, although there is a distant connection that I could possibly exploit. (2) I have no idea if she is seeing someone. I didn't get to see if she was wearing a ring. It could go either way. (3) She is somewhat younger. Maybe 24? OK 9 years might be more than somewhat :) (4) She could be Jewish, not a big thing to me, but it could be a big thing for her.
It is unlikely anything will come of it, but it was still a positive experience. It has been over a year since I met someone I would want to date. Just because of that I call it a good weekend.
Thinking about FLW* with WONDER...

Hey smiles,
I just wanted to say Hi. I wanted to thank you for what you saidlast night. Today a friend and I were going to go out for chineese but decided not too. We were trying to decide what else we wanted and she wanted pizza but I can not have that. We could go to wal mart and get papa murphy's and I could get something else to eat well through the course of the conservation she made me feel so bad that I could not have milk she is rude and self centered anyway. But when you found out I could not have pudding you did not bring it up and that was so sweet.I really am having a hard time with this. It is really depressing going to the store and seeing everything you like but knowing you can not have it. It is even more hard going out to eat. Anyway on a more happy note I am glad that we are friends and that you are letting me be me and that you are interested in me. Ok did i put enough me's in there. Ok this is all I have for now I will try to write something in my blog.
Your website has a useful information for beginners like me.
