Momentary Departure

I generally don't blog about my love life. (Ha! Difficult to blog about something that doesn't exist.) I plan for the most part to stick to that self-imposed rule, but allow me this brief reference to my personal troubles. I preface this by saying that I'm not a man-basher. I don't hate men and you would be hard pressed to find me sitting around with girlfriends insulting and making fun of men. I certainly don't hold back if a particular male has done something to deserve harsh comments, but that holds true for women who act like dumbshits, too.

After filling a good friend in on a newly developing heartache, she sent me this email:

Men - you can't live with them, you can't kill them, because, of course, you don't want to spend the rest of your life in jail.

God love her. Although I wasn't contemplating killing anyone, this hit me just right and even caused me to smile, which was a feat on that particular day. Thank heavens for friends, and sisters, and friends who are sisters. And nieces, too. They've all helped me get through this week with my sanity intact.

We now return to our regular no love life, no man-bashing format.
