March 23, 2019. I had to work our spring Open House that day and The Hobbit and I had plans to go bowling with Cheese and her hubby, Obes, later that night. It was always a good time with my homegirl. I fucking love bowling. The day on campus was whatever; a constant stream of […]

The Hobbit…Part 1
Saturday, January 19, 2019. Communication between The Musician and I had completely stopped by this point (his girlfriend was back); but Vic and I were still attending his birthday party at Petty the following evening. I got Raptor tickets from my cousin Eric last minute. I decided to take Vic since we always have good […]
Big Country…Part 6
August 2018. It was one of the last weekends of summer. I was nervous about hanging out with Big Country for the first time in over 6 months AND his parents. I hadn’t seen them since Christmas. When I got to his parent’s place, he was already there. I was shocked when I saw him. […]
Big Country…Part 5
May – July 2018. That summer was awesome. Most of my time was spent with my Ride or Die’s, wine club and fam. I went wine tasting and camping. Miss D’s backyard was my second home and Vic and I had our annual birthday BBQ, which was always a fabulous time. Oh yeah, and I […]
The Slave…Part I
March 2018. We got together for our monthly wine night with Vic, Paddington, Ry and Shers. Once the general conversations began and the wine started flowing, Shers mentioned that she had a man in mind for me. She met someone who she thought would be compatible with me. She wanted to help me get over […]
TTC…
February 2018. I was dealing with the recent Big Country gong show. I was a hot mess. My girls were such fabulous supporters through the entire process. I swear I called Cheese and Miss D two or three times a day; and if I wasn’t speaking on the phone with them, I was at their […]
Big Country…Part 4
January 1, 2018. In all my 20+ years of dating (good lord), I’ve had my share of arguments, disagreements, tiffs, blowups, etc. I have definitely raised my voice to varying degrees; but I had never lost my shit on someone the way I did on him that New Year’s morning. I ran down the stairs, […]
Big Country…Part 3
July 2017. I left for San Diego to see my cousin Kunk mid-month. The Welder and I spent a few days together a week before I left. We went through the motions; sat by the fire, cooked dinner, watched TV, etc. I think I stayed one day too long. It’s like he had a threshold […]
Big Country…Part 2
February 2017. Big Country and I were getting along swimmingly. We spent many evenings cooking dinner together, watching hockey and sitting around his outdoor fire pit drinking, shooting the shit. He seemed like he was genuinely into me. I was liking him more and more despite the obvious fact that he didn’t want a relationship. […]
The Roofer
November 2015. We met on OK Cupid. This was the one that broke me. He brought out the worst in me and it wasn’t a pretty sight; but it wasn’t his fault. It was mine. I allowed him to be a part of my life. It was like I took all my “lessons learned” and […]
