I'm not sure if the societal norm thing actually affects me much - I've never really been bothered about all that, although I guess I do feel as though I should have a career by now - one that actually pays. I am in the process of divorcing my husband. Due largely to my experience with him, I feel alive for the first time in ages now that this is over. I catch myself doing a little dance of freedom in the living room. I don't want to give that up. Maybe what I want is a compromise of a sort - I don't really know yet. I would love to date - if I could find anyone worth dating around here and ever had any access to, and funds for, a babysitter. The town I live in has a gene pool so shallow there are NO DIVING warnings painted around the edge, and it really shows. I have no interest in a man who thinks the meaning of life is getting drunk on poor quality beer at the weekends (I'm no fan of either getting drunk or bad beer.) I have no interest in a man who smokes. I'm seriously thinking I need to a) move, and b) consider women if I want a loving life partner. :)
Argh, sorry - this has turned into something that sounds quite a lot like whining. I don't mean it that way. I just really resonate with this song right now. :)
