Full Release
So, uh.... my divorce is final. According to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, I am "at liberty to marry again". I am also at liberty to stuff my belly button full of ground sirloin and go taunt a Doberman, but the Commonwealth will forgive me if I take a pass on both super-fun activities.
(I'm being disgustingly facetious here. The other day, I caught myself tearing up to - wait for it - "I'll Be", by Edwin McCain. How humiliating. I don't care if you were [wooed/engaged/married/freaked nasty] to "I'll Be"... it's still crap. It's the auditory equivalent of a CIA special-ops team... it materializes out of nowhere (in this case, immediately after "Freebird"), invades your ducts, forcibly extracts any tears present therein, then applies electrodes to their testicles. Um... wait. Tears don't have testicles. Except perhaps Chuck Norris's.
Point being: once again, Liz Phair is right. I DO want a boyfriend. I DO want all that stupid old shit, like letters and sodas.
Damn, I hope my boobs are nice enough to make up for my gun-shy disposition and stress-induced forehead wrinkle.
[Gives boob exploratory jiggle... hrmn. Not good enough to negate ALL emotional baggage, but good nonetheless. That'll do, tit. That'll do.]
On the left : the kind, compassionate and wonderful Menita has been there for me throughout the past year. I'm glad she was there with me when I received the news that my decree had arrived. And I'm REALLY glad she was holding a camera.
On the right : this is more representative of my mental state as of late. Introverted. Contemplative. Wistful. And kinda... rouge-tinted. Someone needs to bat the ever-present bottle of dye from my hand before I either go bald or start to resemble a bigger-titted Ron Howard.

Okay, YOUR writing was very nice also (as usual), but...that Chuck Norris site made my laugh my sizeable ass down to like, a size 2. Either that or Chuck Norris took a bite out of it during that five minutes last night while I was sleeping and roundhouse-kicked the painful memory into a hazy fatigue-blunted oblivion. HILARIOUS!
A-HAH! So THAT'S why there's a smear of red goo on my white shower curtain. You've been DYING YOUR HAIR at my house again!
*bats ever-present bottle of dye from Julia's hand before my nice fabric shower curtain has to be replaced with a seedy plastic number from K-Mart*
I'm sorry... I'm glad... you deserve happiness...
and I think you are absolutely beautiful!
Loking good. Wish I knew some hot, smart, funny guys in your neck of the woods; unfortunately, my old married ass doesn't even know any in mine. I'm sorry you had to go through this, but happy for you to have some closure.
Congrats.
You look good but I think one should change one's haircolor regularly. Keeps people from recognizing you too easily in the grocery store.
You're pretty. You may join my platonic lesbian commune of the future. By then, the boob technology will be AMAZING, so no worries.
Also, please do not dis my guilty pleasures. The strands in her eyes color them wonderful. I don't care what you say.
Congratulations! The divorce thing is a big deal!
I bleached my hair platinum recently. I love it. But the smell when I wash my hair sends my menfolk running. Point being, I hear you about the dye.
