A rambling thanks..

Thanksgiving Day with my family. My sons, my ex-wife and I had a very low key and pleasant day at her place. Good food, lots of laughs and board games.

I was at the emergency room for 2.5 hours today, having doctors look at my left eye-socket, which had swollen to the size of a golf ball and my eyelid had completely covered my left eye. They gave me an X-ray. They gave me a remote control for the television in my room. They gave me a shot and made me stick around for another 45 minutes. They gave me a few pills and sent me on my way.

The swelling is finally down. Apparently a freakish allergic reaction. Probably some of the mold or dust kicked up in my house last week during the massive clean up going on.

I'm pretty certain that the worst part of the final demise of crimson_storm and I's relationship is the loss of my best friend. I mean, I could tell Tina absolutely anything, and she would never flinch, never judge. And her emotionally savvy mindset was in many ways similar to mine.

I sometimes just wish we could go to the BroHo and have a couple of drinks and talk talk talk. Its going to be a long time till I make a new best friend.

I'm here at my ex-'s house. I have let her go out and meet some guy she's been I'net corresponding with, wants to meet him in public before he comes over. Good idea. She has bourbon and egg-nog for me. I'll probably just go to sleep soon.

I know I'm so blessed with my sons, my family, my friends and my lovers. I guess its that alone feeling that is always right around the next thought that drives my emotional vampirism. (whoa, vampirism is in the text-editor dictionary on this computer...heh). Anyway, I am very thankful for the luck that has been somehow bestowed upon my existence, and yet still, I feel alone.

And I thank you, dear reader, for existing in my life. I'm sure life would have been just a little bit less worth it if I hadn't met you. Yes, you reading this right now, ...thanks.

thanks, tina, sons, health, alicia
