I went to my bank after work today, instead of during. I got a whole $66 of my money back! Anyway, after I got home, I called about 11 pizza parlors, the local ones, and Domino's is hiring drivers, but they are out of apps at the moment, but if I come back next week, they'll have more! The only other place, I left a message at, but haven't heard back from. Nobody else is hiring drivers, go figure. Then I went online to reply to all the survey emails I got today. One of them lead me to Geico Ins., and I can save a whole boatload with them now. Odd, because when i checked a couple months ago they were still way higher than Progressive! So I may be switching over soon. After that, I went to the gas station to get smokes...
Oh how I miss Dahlia (still!!!)! I went in, and there was girl there with an almost identical profile to her waiting in line, but set back a bit from the other people in line. When she regained her focus on the line, she went to get behind me, but I told her that she was there first, so she could go in front of me. She smiled shyly and thanked me. Even her face was almost identical (not quite doppelganger identical, but damn close) She was wearing a RUSH concert t-shirt from this year's tour, and had some Chinese tattoo on the back of her neck. Her hair was dark, with slight dirty blond steaks running through it. It was wavy, just like Dahlia's, and the same length as it was the last time I held Dahlia in my arms (what, almost seven years ago now?). We ended up at registers next to each other, and I looked over at her, but saw no hint of a pierce hole in her left nostril (which Dahlia would still have, even if she stopped wearing her amazingly well fitting nose stud). She kept side glancing at me, but never said anything. We left at the same time, and I held the door for her on the way out, and she thanked me, but said nothing else.
As you all might be guessing, I am now missing the most amazing woman I've ever had the pleasure of dating, knowing, sharing, traveling, talking, fighting, sitting, crying....you know, living with, even more than ever. Son of a mother smucking hitch in a handbag full of snakes and memories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Sorry for the Stephen King style of writing in that last sentence, but I didn't want to swear up a storm, in case blogger took offense to that)

Yeah, Dahlia was great. I miss her, too.
I love you, though, Ugly Butt!

Hi Dave - thanks for not swearing up a storm! Of course, you could always use "ruwvkx" as an alternative! Love you! Mom
