Have I mentioned how much I love it that your divorce was finalised on April Fools Day? I love it. Wish it was 2013 alas 2014 is better than 2015.
Welcome, friend. We're a nice bunch here. Mind the threads about pubic hair stylings and BOBs - you strike me as a raging blusher.
I may have reached a point where I'd piss on him if he was on fire.... eventually!!

Hi AD
welcome to the next phase

And there's no use in backtracking

FBW then 46, XWHNPDPAFTG the destroyer of my entire life. D-Day 1 '99, D-Day 2,3,4,5,6... '09-'11, D '15. I fell apart. I put myself back together. Forgiveness isn't required. I'm happy and healthy now, and MY new life is good.

I just had this hilarious picture of you going through the plot of Escape by Rupert Holmes, except it's your XWW who shows up at O'Malley's and there's a record scratch and the song stops.
Sorry, I have a twisted imagination. Good luck with your new life!
