Another One Bites the Dust
Weekend that is...

Made it through another weekend without acting the fool. Of course, that was because i did exactly nothing. Well, nothing social. Only chores and errands.
Friday night
Dropped daughter off, which could have gone badly, but didn't really. Straightened up prior to the cleaning lady coming tomorrow. Then a grocery store run. Then home. Didn't even eat out (trying to save money and calories). Then, home to goof on the computer. Nothing real there, just light duty entertainment. Did ride the exercycle tho. Didn't go crazy in the empty house. Didn't drink or anything either. A whole bunch "of didn't"s, and not nearly enough "do". That would describe the whole weekend in a nutshell.
Saturday
Got tons of stuff done: mowed lawn, edged, weed-eated, swept the doors and windows and patio, painted the arches of the trampoline (left 1/2-way done for way too long, now done)
Had hoped to go out on a date or a meet-and-greet, but that never even got close to happening. I guess i'm just highly resistable, when it really gets down to it. Most unfortunate, but so it goes.... Had an epiphany - actually from an article here on JoeUser about Maslow's self actualization. What i am looking for is a "sense of belonging". First choice is to "belong" to a man, but since that is not happening anytime soon at the rate i'm going, i need to find other ways to fulfill this need.
Intuitively, i knew this and had re-upped for my volunteer gig. Now with this clearer understanding, i know that won't even be enough. It isn't nearly involving enough. I will have to look for a club or group that is more intense, to satisfy my own intensity. Maybe that Isaac Asimov Humanism? I don't know, the rowing club would be good, but H and i would have to go those 5 classes? Maybe i could do the class myself only, and don't take H... hmm... I think i need something where there would be meetings, and you have to do stuff, organize stuff, call people and get together with them for some purpose or other... Something involving that i could get passionate about...
Sunday
Took Joan to a really nice lunch as payback for her working on my computer. Then, M, P, Sa and Sn all dropped by. They all went to Walmart, and i am babysitting the sleeping baby... Wait, here they are now, more later - if anything worthy of note happens...
