I am not REALLY on vacay, though it would be nice, some sand between my toes and umbrella drinks! I am finishing a summer writing class and in a little transition at work. And needed a few weeks to get the House of DG sorted out!

THE LONE WARLORD OF MY HEARTIt’s never a good sign when your friends ask, what’s new,
and you (in this case me) don’t tell them that a guy they don’t like (Town and Country)
has returned. But it’s true. For now, I have decided against telling Tate, Ainsley
or Siobhan that Town and Country strikes back, or that I have fallen back into
the routine of late night texting with him.
Town and Country:
How was your day?

WHEN TEENY TINY FEELS HUGEToday my teeny tiny apartment feels huge, empty and blecky.
I cabbed Mom to LGA and then took the bus/subway combo; normally I do this
because I’m cheap. This time I did it to prolong coming home to this
loneliness. I do often wonder if I am alone because I am now incapable of
living with someone, being single so long and living alone for 10+ years can do
that to a person.
