Seeking Closure

Still sad, but at getting better. Chatted with Jason this morning on Yahoo. He is starting to understand how I feel. Not that I am upset that he found the other guy, but how he mislead me about the situation. That understanding will go a long way to helping me close this chapter of my ...Read more.

What a lovely day. I got my new sheets laundered to remove the sizing this morning and packed them up to bring down to my studio. I only bought four new sets of sheets yesterday, and I need 8 between today and next Wednesday when the laundry service brings my clean sheets, so I either ...Read more.

Naps and Chain Reactions

I have five hours of bodywork planned today in three sessions. Fortunately, I have two hours between the first two sessions and the third session, so I’ll be able to take a nap. I am slowly but surely getting my strength back from this dratted cold. In other news, I went square dancing last night ...Read more.

Sheets and Stuff

Big John in San Francisco and I went to Mervyn’s today. I needed to buy more sheets, and he wanted to get some socks. Afterward, we went and “got a rice plate” on Clement Street and ate by Stow Lake, and finally hit up Trader Joe’s for some grocery shopping. I really need 8 sets ...Read more.

Today I had a client. That went as well as could be expected, for a client who hadn’t been here in well over a year. He forgot how to receive, and it was a frustrating session. I’ll call him tomorrow, though, and talk to him about it. In other news, I wish that this stupid ...Read more.

The Tale of the Ink

I did something today that I hadn’t been financially able to do in almost four years: I called my tattoo artist to make an appointment to start-up again on the backpiece. Her receptionist told me that they were booking April appointments, and that there was a waiting list, but that they’d be getting back to ...Read more.

Seeking Serenity Where It’s To Be Found

Jason missed his flight back to Wyoming yesterday, so imagine my surprise when I was having a cocktail at The Edge yesterday afternoon when he walked up to me and started talking to me. Theoretically, his flight back to Wyoming was this morning at 06:00. Now, admittedly, part of the reason I went there was ...Read more.

Let the Sunshine In

It seems that Jason wasn’t able to actually tell me he wanted to break up. Instead he did it by coming to San Francisco and staying with another man, and then by promising to meet me on Sunday at noon, and then sending me a 5 word email saying he was in Sausalito with the ...Read more.

Relapse

I think perhaps it has been too early to try to go back to work. Tonight I am feeling just horrible.
