FR Update

Okay, so I've decided not to call FR, and here is why:

I was walking home from the gym on Tuesday, bouncing back and forth between the two more poignant comments:

Life with Marcy:
"NOOO! This reminds me of the movie Big Daddy when Sonny found his woman with an old man. "Hey, you just made the biggest mistake of your life, baby. I know you're gonna be missing me when ya got that big, white, wrinkly body on top of ya, with his loose skin and...old balls! Gross!"I had to look the quote up for this occasion."

Chardsy:
"think of all the blog fodder you will get from having dinner with him, it will be amazing!"

Then, I passed a man, probably in his 60s. Without the forgiving lighting of the bar and the even more forgiving fog of three glasses of wine, I was struck - almost to the ground - by how OLD he looked. The wrinkles, the the liver spots, the gray hair - it could be my D-A-D. I just can't do it.

But regardless, I do have a date tonight with a youthful, motorcycle-loving engineer.
