And remember, you have to kiss a lot of toads... (well, that's what my guru tells me)... Dating is like boxing~ you get in the ring full of vim and vinegar, and go a round. Then you are exhausted, perhaps a tad unsure about the whole thing and the idea of a round two, but when the bell rings you get up and try again. It's a marathon! Courage. Careen on, baby!

And I must say, you're quite the catch. Someone's out there, already fated to be 2.0, and she'll be a very lucky woman. I've had a wander through your story and am in awe of how you've made this journey, with such a clear sense of who you are and what you want for your kids.. and with such gratitude for the time you had with Anna. It's really hard to comment on your story without sounding trite.. your continued appreciation for all that's worthwhile in life is the best possible tribute to give her. Is that too hallmark? I hope not. Very cool. And you're a great writer, too. A fabulous gift to have. Hey there jason, found you via thordora. And I must say, you’re quite the catch.

It will take me until the end of this year to get to my ideal weight at the current rate. I'm less than halfway there. Anna and I actually talked about this. She wanted me to get remarried. Of course, at the time, the idea seemed preposterous. Now, as I look at it, I would definitely have wanted her to find someone to cherish and respect her if she felt so inclined. Who knows what will happen from here... Thor - I should say that the 43 has come off over the course of a year or more.
