MotherE, you are right! I say I should just grow a pair, take a leap of faith, and call it a day. One thing is for certain, I can't make things happen just sitting here. There's still so much that I want to do.
I just want to be happy and be at peace. I guess you could say that I'm in sort of an odd status right now. For instance, I'm 40 and divorced/single whereas my friends who are of the same age are all married. I have no children to occupy my time, while all of my friends have two or more kids. I'm not even dating because...well...I have no social outlet and I never meet any guys because I don't have any single friends to go out with. It's like, where do I fit in? I'm not out on the prowl, and I'm not the cougar type either, but at the same time it would be great to meet someone really nice. Who am I kidding? All the good ones ARE taken. Plus, I'm not about going out to the bars and such, hoping to meet Mr. Right. I prefer a situation in which things happen "organically", in a chance meeting as they say. Or maybe I've just watched too damn many chick flicks.
I'm not asking for much and I think I'm easy to please. I just like getting together with true friends I can trust and that share some of the same interests as me, especially music. There's nothing like a Saturday night hanging out on the deck with my best buds, grilling burgers at sunset, while there's some good music playing on the radio in the background. Steely Dan is always good for such an occaision. I guess I must be feeling nostalgic to carry on like this. God I miss the good 'ol days!
All of a sudden I'm finding it strange to "discuss" this subject matter on a zit website. I guess it's ok, though. After all, this is the forum. I'm sure there have been stranger things said. Also, posting is an insomniac's main duty. It's in the job description, because now, on top of the job stuff and the pursuit of happiness, I've somehow lost my ability to sleep like I should. It's the damnedest thing. CAUTION! MID LIFE CRISIS AHEAD! That's all I really needed to have said to start with!
