Does that count as one long date. At this point, I wouldn't want to be dealing with dating. I wouldn't have clue about how to behave. I'm sure I'd scare the s**t out any man would looked my way. :)Bish Denhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13359927719391990534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4174226224096540850.post-7116946110727830782015-09-14T11:24:52.813-04:002015-09-14T11:24:52.813-04:00Linda -- Spit them out...yes, I love the term &quo...Linda -- Spit them out...yes, I love the term "word vomit". It's so appropriate. And I should clarify, although this story is partially taken from real life, it no way resembles my own.<br /><br />Susan -- I don't blame you for not wanting to date again. I only want to "date" so I could have a conversation that doesn't revolve around kids, school, or volunteer work. Or football. lolAnne Gallagherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05816355522284492131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4174226224096540850.post-49978313335640073502015-09-14T10:56:55.688-04:002015-09-14T10:56:55.688-04:00I wouldn't know where to start in the dating g...I wouldn't know where to start in the dating game and after being married for 33 years, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want to. I understand your situation though. Where are the good men out there? But it's great that you're enjoying the writing so much. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.susangourley.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Susan Says</a>Susan Gourley/Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02669793865290876168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4174226224096540850.post-79829961695847797032015-09-14T09:25:30.086-04:002015-09-14T09:25:30.086-04:00I pull elements of my stories from real life.

You're right--having fun is key. I'm glad you're having fun with your writing again. :)Linda G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04576828490765434497noreply@blogger.com
