...Hope this one works well for you. Keep us posted.<br /><br />I've never been into numerology. I used to dabble in astrology but when the stars said I should NOT marry a Gemini and that May 10 was a bad day for life changing actions, I tossed the book and married my Gemini. We'll be celebrating our 46th anniversary this May 10th.

As for your description of the guy, aside from the tree thing, his situation sounds so much like me after my second divorce which I did not want at all. I hoped a restoration would come about but after she remarried and then dumped a couple more guys liked she dumped me I started sensing she was mentally wacko. I think I ended up with the far better deal with my current wife. I feel bad for my kids now because they're stuck with their mother and don't quite know what to do with her. I'm not taking her back that's for sure!<br /><br />Maybe this tree guy might be okay. Unless the prayer thing was just a show for you. Take it carefully and slow. It's gonna take more than one lunch to get the full story and you've gotta tend to yourself as well.<br /><br />Good luck with it all. Gosh all this dirt makes me feel like a peeping tom or like I've tapped into your phone or read your diary.

My friend just had botox again(she lost count after 30 needles). She is not well from this and wondering if it's worth it. You and this man must be both in the right frame to be able to go out with who ever you go out with (that includes tree man who also must heal). Is he still seeing that other gal? I wonder if he is over his ex? Hope it all works out but you have a good idea to deal with you and be kind to you first (and stilll have fun)Birgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439720285857050428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-13377040054283431392015-01-20T13:01:51.220-05:002015-01-20T13:01:51.220-05:00"Train" is so appropriate.

Lots of cars full of garbage, treasures, pleasures, desires, depending again on each one's interpretation of their life events.

The second one actually contains a lyric that goes like this: "She's a Gemini Capricorn. Thinks all men are addicted to porn." Hahahaha. Regarding your email: yes, I did get out. Didn't realize you'd sent it from work. I wasn't sure how to respond to it, since you seemed to be on the downside of liking JOA (yes, there are certain elements that will cease to surprise you and lose their "wow factor," but I think the lesson in each one is pretty darn awesome). Anyway, glad you're back to liking it (and you're absolutely right about the reason it was cancelled... Given the circumstances, I'm shocked it made it TWO seasons).<br /><br />Manzi ~ Well, I could go on an on about numerology and the science behind it, but it feels a bit self-indulgent.<br /><br />Dianne ~ Yes, understanding where he is makes it easier for me to just back up a step. People must do things in their own time. In fact, if anyone understands that it's ME. I haven't dated anyone since 2009, because my migraines were ruling my life. If you can't bring something to the table, you have no business being there.<br /><br />Karen ~ Yes, I agree. He just needs time and space to sort out the reality that is now his life. <br /><br />OE ~ I'm not sure either, which is why I'm backing up a bit and giving him room. Ever had an experience where you knew logically that something was true, but you couldn't quite accept it in your heart? But, enough time rolls by and you must accept it. I think his being willing to date is the first step toward that acceptance. I'm more than happy for him to work out the kinks of the matter on someone else. In other words, decide 1) Yes, I'm ready to date, but 2) I don't want to date YOU. In other words, I think it's good that he's getting a glimpse of what's out there (because a lot of it ain't pretty). He told me she just took a job as a bartender in the redneck bar where I sing karaoke. I knew he wasn't thrilled with that decision, but felt he had no claim on her to register his dislike of it. Eventually, I think he will reach the conclusion that they are two different species. The thing is it is good that he's having this experience. We all have to decide who we want in our lives and who we don't. The fact that he's even making these decisions shows that he's moving on. AND, as I said somewhere above, I didn't date for A VERY LONG TIME because I was so sick and didn't feel able to do it.... so if anyone understands where he's at, I do, in my own way.<br /><br />JJ ~ Not my definition of dating and I think I can safely say not his either. He strikes me as the sort of person who will be cautious about the whole thing (and probably doesn't believe in living together outside of marriage). Can't that with certainty, but I bet that's right. I'll look for the clip you mentioned. I'd love to see/hear it.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-3681905798157820842015-01-20T10:54:07.209-05:002015-01-20T10:54:07.209-05:00Dating?

Maybe our two things will meet. And maybe not.</b></i><br /><br />And that almost sounds porn-like.<br /><br />Just finished watching all the episodes of 'JOAN OF ARCADIA', Season 1, Disc 3. GREAT! Some of the best episodes yet. (And I recognized some scenes that you had embedded for my 'Ferret-Faced Fascist Friends' going away / retirement party. But taken out of context like that, I really didn't understand them much. Now I do.)<br /><br />I'm totally back into it again. Brother Nappy watched 'em with me and likewise said that it's ridiculous that they cancelled this show after two seasons when it is obviously better than almost all the shit being shown on TV today. And I said, "They HAD to cancel it! It was not only talking about God but displaying God in a positive Light. That's intolerable today!"<br /><br />Anyway, I'm now looking forward to the next disc. I liked the episode where Rocky died. And in the last one I saw, I cracked up when they totally "got me" with the vending machine guy. I was sure that was God, when he said, "Change comes from within" and Joan got all over his case for the trite platitude and then it turns out to be... just a vending machine guy. Ha!-Ha! That'll teach me not to be overconfident in the future.<br /><br />Say, did you get the Email I sent on January 17th? That was an experiment. I actually sent that from my work computer while logged into my home computer's Email system. i discovered that I could do that - had no idea for the last year and a half that I've been working these horrible graveyard shi(f)ts and relying on the unreliable Email system at work.<br /><br />~ D-FensDogg<br />'Loyal American Underground'Stephen T.
