Oh no, now you're going to have to put up with those bicycle groupies.

Well, I guess that does explain why Lumberjim wants me to post a picture.

I think LJ's more into kayakers.

Good stuff dis. Well on the road to recovery

I'm not dead yet. Talked with the person that caused me to spawn this thread a couple times since. Didn't change my resolve to move on.

Happy now, even though life has thrown me a curve ball and I'm looking to walk away from my job and move out of state blind if it means getting out of a rut I've been in too long. Embrace change, yeah?

Anyhow, I appreciate the words of advice (even the ones I didn't agree with) back then. Thanks, all.

Hey, dis! Good to see you back!

Hi disenchanted--

Thanks for the progress report, always good to hear from not dead yet people. Change is hard (I know you know, I'm just commiserating). Though you launched this thread from painful circumstances, I'd be happy to hear from you in other threads about your other circumstances. "Walking away from a job"... wow, that sounds pretty huge. Care to share?

BigV: 2010 was a weird year. Got in trouble with the law and I'm still dealing with the aftermath of that (I've been told it's rather common and innocuous, but I'm big on personal accountability, so I got myself into this mess, it's up to me to deal with it. Couple more months and the worst will be done.) Rekindled a friendship that goes back 20 years. Once spurned by her, it turns out there is a romantic side as well...she knows the worst about me and accepts it. Been taking a hard look at my life and I've decided that this cycle of wake up, go to work, come home, lather, rinse, repeat needs a little disruption. Scary to walk away from a routine? Sure. I just don't want to wake up in 50 years to realize I could've done more.
