		<title>Then and now</title>
		<description>I was in an airport, talking to you on the phone...
when I saw someone...
a woman that looked so much like someone else that I once had feelings for.
I was shocked at the similarity.
I was stupefied by my own emotions:
a small hurt, a small ache, a small dissatisfaction.
Silly as it sounds,
I ...</description>

		<title>Eloped</title>
		<description>Two and a half weeks after my divorce was finalized.

I got married in Santa Fe, NM...

no one knew about it beforehand...

We just decided in bed that it was what we wanted to do.  ;)
We would call the shots...

And not wait for a time and a place that suited anyone else.

		<title>Some times I want sympathy</title>
		<description>so I am really not all that practical.
i stew about things...although I try not to obsess.

Why worst of all?
Because I think...
if I am sad,
then, to others...
I am a needy person;

		<title>to a distant friend who just told me his mom had cancer</title>
		<description>Thank you...(I apologize in advance for the following diatribe...)

I am very sorry to hear about your mom...
I dealt with this terrible thing...seeing my ex-wife's father die from cancer.

And it made no sense to me.
How could this ever happen?
How come faith / god can not stop this?
What good is this? What ...</description>

		<title>Still here&#8230;.</title>
		<description>Lots going on in my life right now...

I filed for divorce in August.

Business has been chaotic...
lots of turnover...
long term, professional employees leaving; 
no replacements...

I have had lots of business travel as well...usually 10 day trips...
sometimes twice a month.

My kids and I are trying to find more time to be together.

		<title>on my way to Canada</title>
		<description>Traveling today to New Brunswick...

I have never traveled this far East before...

it is so far East, as a matter of fact,

that it is one hour ahead of Eastern Standard  Time.

I am going on business...

but I hope to also have time to be a tourist...

and take a few pictures for you.  ...</description>

		<description>The doctor today says that that is my blood pressure right now.

I knew that it was high...but not that high!

Stress...

I need to change some habits...

in order to survive. </description>
