Welp! Long story short: Yes, the douchebag does run in the family. I hate being lied to as much as I ever did. I am single.
My mom and I talked about it for a long time. And in the end, her advice was good and also my new favorite German proverb: "You have to kiss many frogs before you find a prince." I'm going to follow my gut more next time and less my conception of what I should be doing. "Why the hell not" isn't going to be my reasoning for starting a relationship ever again. And hey! As Scotty, the father of my owls, told me: One less Christmas gift to buy. :D
There's a songmeme that's pinged my interest. But before that there is a room to clean. And tea to make. And delicious homemade potato soup to consume. And the father of my owls to text. And anyway summing up my life in song is such a goddamn difficult thing to do that I'm going to need probably days to think about it anyway, because memes are serious fucking business.
But here, have a song. It's old by now, I know, and I think most people on my flist got sick of Owl City awhile ago. But for some reason this song sums up my mood right now. Not even the lyrics, but the mood they evoke? Or something?

My darling, we're on the wing; look down and keep on singing.
