Jeremy you consistently have the craziest stories. I wouldn't be friends with such a batshit asshole either.

haha well this is all back in 2006; I just haven't talked about it much here

+ moved apartments recently and was able to find a place that doesn't break bike commute-ability

+ hopefully about to get a practice space literally in between said apartment and job

+ job is also pretty cool (doing IT for a small nonprofit that works on global women's human rights issues)

- feel like I never have time for stuff

- have fully realized that's due to my own laziness and disorganization and still can't seem to fix it

or is there just actually nobody here

I think it depends on the psychology of the specific people involved

some people are good at it and as long as they can maintain communication, they're fine. I think I'm probably in this camp. Makeouts are great and all, but I'd say the psychological and emotional connection is really the bedrock of the relationship I'm in now

but then I know it really drives some people bugfuck not to have regular physical contact, so I dunno.

is there any significance to your name changing to "momitsNOWme" or is that a typo

It might never not be awkward.

I haven't seen my last ex for like 4 years now and that's just how it has to be. Things got really shitty towards the end of that relationship; while the relationship was still going she basically went all Spider-Man-villain and blamed a friend of mine for everything that was wrong wrong with our relationship, to the point that she snooped all my accounts and sent out emails from my accounts to try to dig up dirt. Through a further Spider-Man-esque coincidence I actually am now dating the person my ex was suspicious of, but that didn't happen until years after we broke up. (I haven't and wouldn't cheat on anyone. What's the point? If you're in an agreed-upon monogamous relationship and realize you want to date other people, be a decent human being and be honest about it.)

So basically my ex wanted to murder my current girlfriend and sent her multiple threats, and was legitimately abusive during our breakup (she smashed my stuff,  shoved me down onto broken glass, punched and kicked me, threw stuff at me, hacked my accounts, tried to drive elaborate psychological wedges between me and my other friends, kicked me out of our apartment in a new town we'd just moved to where I had nowhere to go, etc.)

SOOOOO it's ancient fucking history now, and honestly from everything I've heard she seems to have chilled out quite a bit by now, but given our history a post-relationship friendship really wasn't in the cards.

It's hard to talk about this stuff because so often when a dude talks shit about their "crazy ex", it's misogynistic bullshit and I really want to be careful not to frame it in those terms. But yeah. It's not always possible to be friends afterwards.

i like twitter more than facebook these days because people sometimes actually write their own updates on twitter instead of just sharing upworthy links and memes

this is one of my favorite local beers





I also got a thing of mediocre vodka and am attempting to infuse different fruits into it. This one is raspberry ginger.

when i eat out sometimes i get to a point where i don't want to throw food away but there's not enough left to justify bringing home, so i cram it down and feel gross and bad for the rest of the day
