So, I've been musing about relationships lately, mainly because I'm starting to miss being in one. Merriam-Webster's site give the definition of a "relationship, in the terms I'm using it, as 3b : a romantic or passionate attachment. Obviously, this isn't a good enough definition.

She messaged me to borrow a tv show I have on DVD. Made time to come over to pick it up, and we ended up chatting for about 30 min or so. Another ninja, but not in a way that frightens me. But in the course of our conversation, I brought up the fact that I had the ability to attract mainly crazy women, and that I wasn't really attracting any women ( Read more... )

I keep telling myself I'm going to use this thing more often, but I just don't spend as much time on the internet anymore. Got Converted to UPS last week.
