It was just two months ago today
* My soon-to-be-ex-wife told me that our marriage was over.
* I had a major depressive episode, and was committed to the psych ward.

Since then, I have:

* Moved out of my house, and moved in with my mother (who lives 100+ miles from me);
* Gone back to work, full time.
* Changed my depression meds, and added two others.
* Lost 20 pounds, and dropped two pants sizes!!!!!
* Found a new place to live, as of August 1st
* Started cleaning out my house
* Been out on a couple "friendly" dates with very interesting, nice women
* put my old band back together, and started writing new songs
* cut off most my hair, and got new glasses too!

* NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY ENTIRE FREAKING LIFE!!!!!!!!!
Damn, I feel GREAT!!!! :D :D :D :toast:

2. Getting better every day
Amazing what modern medical science can do. That, and some serious counselling, a change of environment, getting rid of a spouse who is a succubus, etc :evilgrin:

17. I saw No Name No Slogan just a few weeks ago, and
he looks great.

Any age-appropriate DU ladies who are looking for a genuinely nice and interesting guy would be well-advised to get acquainted.
