You know you live in a small town when ...

you call a repair man for your faulty heater and it turns out to be the guy who was drunk and chatting you up at a bar last week!

My new table

Yippee! I finally got a dining table. It's a counter height table. I've wanted a pub table for a long time. The store I went to didn't have any, but I saw this counter height one and I like it better. It's kind of a tight squeeze now, but once I move, I'll make sure I have a proper dining area to fit it.

Here are some pics.

I'm so glad finally not to have to eat on the couch anymore. Now that I think about it, I haven't had a dining table since my first and second apartments back in the mid-90s. I always intended to buy barstools when I was in my last apartment because I had a huge service bar. I never got around to it. But now, I have a real table. No more crouching over the coffee table and no more kitties trying to horn in. Yay!

Dating persona test

The Sonnet


Deliberate Gentle Love Dreamer (DGLD)

The Sonnet

Romantic, hopeful, and composed. You are the Sonnet. Get it? Composed?

Sonnets want Love and have high ideals about it. They're conscientious people, caring & careful. You yourself have deep convictions, and you devote a lot of thought to romance and what it should be. This will frighten away most potential mates, but that's okay, because you're very choosy with your affections anyway. You'd absolutely refuse to date someone dumber than you, for instance.

Lovers who share your idealized perspective, or who are at least willing to totally throw themselves into a relationship, will be very, very happy with you. And you with them. You're already selfless and compassionate, and with the right partner, there's no doubt you can be sensual, even adventurously so.

You probably have lots of female friends, and they have a special soft spot for you. Babies do, too, at the tippy-top of their baby skulls.

Your exact female opposite:
