To quote Futurama:

"FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM OY! FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM OY!"

I got the word from my lawyer today, international PI day, that the divorce papers have been signed.

Mothers, lock up your 20+ year old daughters! Pwenet is legally SINGLE again!

Edit: So - Any suggestions what I should do now with my new legal status besides sit at a wifi cafe sipping a drink and working on a narration for my PbP game?

Woo!

Wait, isn't divorce a bad thing? Where families break down, people get stressed, children are negatively impacted...

Who cares? You're single again! This calls for a party!

*parties like it's 1699*

(Anyone who gets the reference gets nothing, because, come on, who wouldn't get it?)

I don't get it.

And Pwenet, congratulations! I suggest you go out and get smashed/sozzled. Or go and do something that only single guys do....

... Go and stand in an airport and take pictures of conventional jet aircraft for your scrapbook? :smalltongue:

@ Pwnet: Congratulations?!:smallconfused:
Normally I wouldn't congratulate someone on a divorce, but in your case it sounds like a good thing. So, YAY!!!
@edit: Pick up chicks? Invite all us other single playrounders over for single male parties?

Liberating feeling isn't it? I say go buy yourself something nice. Maybe some spiffy new duds or a new CD or something.

EDIT: Oh. And welcome to the Ex-Men *snikt* *opens beer*

Happy times ahead!

Actually, I think you're only supposed to do that if you're wanting to meet all the nice single men, in an undisclosed state penitentiary. :smallfrown:

Congratulations! I'm quite happy for you! Did you manage to get the cat back?

Now is a good night for a bar trip with friends. Sit back, enjoy the music and company and remember, if you want to ask a girl to dance, you can!

...congratulations, you're single?

Odd, I'm very good at being single, almost a perfect track record, and nobody congratulates me for it...but anyway, go out and do EVERYTHING!!!

Toga, Toga, Toga!

Seconded.

Seriously though, good to hear Pwenet. Now the healing can begin.
Or, it could, if strippers were clerics.

Take up all your savings, buy a motorcycle, and go touring through the country, staying in cheap motels and doing every random thing you feel like along the way.

Luckily in my case, no kids, no property owned, no shared debt. Just a nice clean cut through my heart.

Last night, on my 25th year of being, my Dad and I finally did the traditional father/son activity of going to a bar and have drinks.

Was a fun evening.

Thanks for the welcome.

*Grabs the beer*

My major purchase today is the security deposit for a new apartment which I hope to move into around June/July.


I'm glad you're finished with the mess Pwenet.

Happy times ahead!

Many thanks.

Many kind thanks.

Sadly the cats are still in her possession, but the place I'm moving into allows 1 cat for sure, so eventually I shall get another furball whom I will train to claw the EX eyes out and kidnap the kitties and return them home :smalltongue:

Sorry - I want my own place first :smalltongue:

Now THAT is an idea! :smallbiggrin:

Well, no one says they have to be real clerics... or nuns... *nudge nudge wink wink*

Also, why do I feel like shouting "PWNED!" whenever I see your name?

Woot! Glad you're past that particular unpleasantness in your life! Now it's time to live the good life for a while, with poker, and hookers....in fact, forget the poker :smallbiggrin:

No experience, no advice, however, CATS RULE!!! Get a new one. Or better yet, make an army of evil kitties! Enjoy being single!

While you can!:smallwink: I kid, I kid.

No, really, enjoy it.

Good luck with the rest of your life!

I see this being an opportunity to take up a manly hobby ... like scotch tasting, car tuning, chauvinism ... whatever strikes your fancy. :smallbiggrin:

Yup splitting sucks, but by the same token, while surgery hurts afterwards, you're probably better off for it.

Watching the chat logs of my EX transgressions burn in the fireplace was really, liberating. 30+ pages of that (self-censorship) that I printed out burning away into ash, it has been transformed into its proper form. As for the electronic versions, those too are now random bits about to be overwritten on my hard drive.

Feeling a lot better now surprisingly, wish I had been sober enough to have burned them yesterday.

Do something distinctly manly. Like talking about hooters with your friends while drinking beer.
