Comments on: Random Reader Rant and/or Revel http://www.princeofpetworth.com/2010/03/random-reader-rant-andor-revel-140/ Welcome to the beautiful life Fri, 10 Feb 2012 00:39:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: BDK http://www.princeofpetworth.com/2010/03/random-reader-rant-andor-revel-140/#comment-186870 BDK Mon, 22 Mar 2010 17:25:58 +0000 http://www.princeofpetworth.com/?p=12585#comment-186870 For the record, Other POV, neither rg nor I claimed in this space to have been wronged or failed. So I hope you're not assuming anything about men and marriage here, because you know what that'd make you. The Big Truth here is that when there is a broken family with small children, there is pain to go around. And then some. And I don't mind adding that my ex needs your sympathy WAY more than I do.

Everything. Now I live in somebody's basement. My self-imposed exile was mercifully brief, but two years later I am still hurt and broken. I am lucky that I get to see my kids almost whenever I want and things are coming together for me. I might even have a girlfriend. But nothing fills the emptiness or fixes the disconnect. The worst part for me might be that there seems to be no sense to it, no lesson to be learned. So I just keep going. Keep going, rg. I hope this is indented enough in the thread so that the people who are pissed off by the sharing will skip it. Please return to your brackets. I too had everything, rg. Everything.

Rant: Anyone see all the trash in Piney Branch from the recent rains? All the neighborhoods would have looked so much better in this awesome evening sun if they weren't so filthy! Come on DC govt and residents, time to clean up our act so we can party in pride of our fine city! Rave: Awesome sunshine and warmth!

No work e-mail, no calendar, can't even access my desktop. What's the point of coming to work if I just play solitaire and surf the 'net all day? Rave1: My team won last night! Northern Iowa beat UNLV with an AMAZING three-pointer. Luckily, college b-ball is the only sport I really care about. Oh, and the Caps. Rant: We play Kansas next. Rave2: WEATHER!! Rave3: Going to the circus tonight! Rave4: Hung out with one of 'my' senior citizens today. I hope I'm that 'with it' and still independent when I'm 84.
