The past three days have been amazing. I have been with my ex, for whom I"ll refer to as The Witch (No, she"s not a witch but its a great way to hide her real name, I dare you to figure out what it really is) for the past three days. I had her stop by my friends house where I was hanging out on Thanksgiving. Instantly it all came flooding back. All the feelings etc.. We got out all of the demons issues and other potpourri settled all of it and, put it behind us. Now she wants to be friends, which is impossible as the adult situations, language and potpourri that took place the last few days would indicate. This weekend, I was truely, happy for the first time in a long time. So I have decided to insert her in the running along with everyone else. In the back of my mind though, I know she will eventually throw a big monkey wrench in my social life and I"ll only want 2b with her. Dammit, I left my watch at JB"s condo Wedneday. I dont know what time it is or, with the witch back in my life, what year it its. What would Darren say? I"ll call her later to retrive the watch and probably say goodbye to her or find a way to fade to black. I had breakfast withViva this morning. She wants me to call her later. I think shes the only one I know that doesnt want anything from me. Pikachu wants to get together Monday (tomorrow). Why not?

The Witch went to happy hour with me yesterday and had a great time with my friends and I shooting the shit after work. Pikachu is well, even cuter than I thought she"d be dressed up. All I can say is, well, Wow. I dont see the personality mesh that I see going on with The Witch or even Cue Tee for that matter but I"ll see where it goes. I talked to JB briefly on my way to see The Witch. I have got to get my watch and fade this to black, sometime this week. No sense in delaying this further. JB and I have some compatability issues as well that put the kibosh on anything long term either. She said nobody has ever quit her before. Well, first time for everything!

Well Pikachu gave me the brushoff.. Thats cool because it means one less person to deal with. Meanwhile, JB continues to press to see me. I may see her this evening if time permits. The Witch called me at 7:30 AM talking about how she wanted to see me as well. I think I"ll do dinner with JB and go see The Witch later.

I had lunch with "The Witch" this afternoon. Its call coming back to me. Well after a 90 minute lunch and some serious conversation I am going to terminate the rest at this time. At least for the holidays anyway. With that said, well The Witch has just about won. With Pikachu out of the way, the only one left to get rid of is JB. I am trying to figure out the best way/time to do it. No better time than the present.

There. I did it. JB got the message on her answering machine today. I told her that recent changes in my life have necessitated us being phone friends and that seeing and sleeping together had to cease. I also talked about some incompatabilities that made me think there was nothing long-term going on anyway and that this was the right course of action to take. Will I get stalked? Tune in Next time..

Well, for some reason JB does not want to talk to me. I am still trying to get my watch and well, with no success...

Well, JB has made arrangements to get the watch back to me after my "If a woman told a man this, he would have to deal with it" speech. So, I have to go to her complex to pick it up. I wonder if it got smashed???

Well, I sent the concilitory message to JB. "I am fully aware that you are surrounded by eligible men and that all of them are better and better for you than I could ever be or aspire to be. With that said, I hope we can be friends and keep in touch. In either case, take care of yourself (name deleted) I hope we"ll talk again someday" I hung out with "The witch" last night. I am just about hooked. Meanwhile I talked to Cue Tee yesterday. I might see her on my next visit to Ind.. Got a new (old) one to deal with in Lex. No names yet as it may not amount to anything. In other news Mi called this morning, out of the blue asking me if I was still getting married, why I was not, how long since the breakup, how my Dad was (and condolances) and last but not least, what I was up to this weekend. Hmmmm.. Last summer the Witch threw a monkey wrench in my relationship with the good doctor. The real problem is, I am not pathetic enough to be with her.

In some other interesting news. Braidy is beginning to get under my skin. She really seems into me. Thats not bad news. She sent me a phone message saying she wants to cook dinner for me. I am cool with that. I want to eat her food too.

Lately I have been thinking about The Witch. Every now and then I keep asking myself where the hell did all of that go wrong and, what will it take for me to forget about all of it, or live with it. I even thought about seeing her again. (stupid huh?) Anyway, it crossed my mind.
