There is a theory in cognitive therapy that people repeat the same patterns because our minds become used to traveling particular neural paths; and thus seek those paths. It’s sort of the mental equivalent of commuting … where you always take the same route to work, even though you know that sometimes traffic is really [...] A number of people I know are going through the divorce and/or break-up process right now … and it’s easy for me to understand what they’re going through, up to a point … their not-soon-enough-to-be-ex-spouses (ex-spices?) are making their lives difficult. As an ex-husband-to-be, I decided that it would just make my life easier if [...] I’m avoiding a conversation I haven’t wanted to have, because I’m not really ready to talk about it yet … But to be fair to the two of you, I feel like I should let you know. Kim and I did decide to get a divorce, and filed in early February. Since the divorce was [...] Got the following email from K. yesterday: Subject: Proof the universe is sentient It has a sense of irony. 2/13/07. Maybe we should have avoided the 13th? Let’s blame it on my mother not paying the deposit so we had to move it from 10/6 to 10/13. I’m thankful that it wasn’t 2/14/07. That would [...] … and it’s obviously not very easy on K. either.

If I have, it was certainly not my intention to do so … I feel that I’ve been more than fair in portraying [...] Several weeks ago, I wrote a post entitled “Neologisms“, in which I discussed “smittenness”. I’ve got a couple new words to add to the list: Crushiness (n): the state of having a crush on a new person. Yeah, this is kind of synonym for smittenness, but in some ways it very accurately described my emotional [...] Lists … everyone has them, and of all sorts of different things. Over the last couple of days, one of the lists that I’ve discussed with various people is the “free reign celebrity” list … i.e., those celebrities that you have free reign to have sex with, regardless of partnership/marriage status. My current top 5 [...] “When people get married because they think it’s a long-time love affair, they’ll be divorced very soon, because all love affairs end in disappointment. But marriage is a recognition of a spiritual identity.” — Joseph Campbell (1904 – 1987), American Author, Philosopher and Teacher. “When two people decide to get a divorce, it isn’t a [...] Apartment hunting sucks. I am not ready to do this … but I’ve got to let go and quit hanging on … because the longer I hang on, the more we both end up hurting, and the more likely it is that we’ll end up hating each other. But this really sucks. Marriage is supposed [...] |
