An update or something like it

I'm jetting back to LA as we speak, anxious to get things moving on this whole movie deal (WHOO! Sex researcher! Does this mean that once again I don't get the girl?). Also, kinda anxious to get things moving forward on this whole divorce thing. I really haven't thought that much about it. Half of me is mad as hell that I've even allowed it to go

Good luck with the divorce proceedings...gosh, I know it must be hard for you. It sort of shocks you into the reality that "this is it"...that that chapter in your life has closed.

I don't think you're pessimistic really. Sort of cynical and jaded maybe, but hey, everyone's felt like that at one point in time. And you're entitled to feel that way, especially with all you've been through. No one can go through life completely unaffected by things. It's just not normal.

Things'll be better, buddy. Then you'll be asking yourself "When did I turn into such an optimist?"

;)

Well, really I'd rather not deal with it, but you can only run for so long. Yep, it's over. It's hard to believe, but it is.

Thanks for being such a pal, O. It's good to hear those things. The sad fact is that I'm really not sure what normal is anymore. My definition of normal has been completely altered by this past month. Well, that's not entirely true. I have been able to smile though this, but not just as much. The party the other night really lifted my spirits, if only for a short while.

You're right. Things will get better. But the pessimist in me says that things will get worse first.
