A friend said to me "you're winning at life"

Since I always wanted to mature into a gay man with mighty matrilineal avoidance behaviors and a tendency towards twenty-four hour trysts, I think he's right.

• Double-entry accounting of my own budget?  Check.
• Own a home?  Check.
• Lost the home in a messy divorce?  Check.
• Own a fur made of spotted puppies?  Not yet . . .
• String of pearls?  Check.
• More friends than I can shake a stick at?  Which stick this stick?  I guess I got enough.
• Freedom to be gay / drunk as a barmaid / non-religious / perverse in every way?  Check.
• Live with friends I would shake that stick at?  Check.
• Got a job?  Check.
• Got a job I like, that likes me, and that I can leave at 4pm?  Check.

Looks like I am winning at life today.


Later we'll talk health and spirituality.  Today's for sticks and money and flings.
