sl,
Thanks, I think I will take your suggestion. It's been a while since I went to the library. That might be just the ticket. I love to read.
Yeah, I like being single. You know, it does not have to be sexless (wink, wink). But I'm a bit fragile now so I think I'll take a long break.
I have a retreat coming up this weekend. It's full of people who love me and who are just like me. We understand each other. I'm glad I don't have to be alone this weekend if I don't want to be alone.
Thanks for all of your support. It really helps. The Wellbutrin/Effexor seems to be better today. Tomorrow I go down on the Effexor and up on the Wellbutrin. I hope it's not as much of a roller-coaster. At least I know that all I have to do is take care of me. I can do that. I see my doc next week. That is self-care too.

I LIKE being able to go to the art fair and look at what _I_ want, I like being able to grocery shop and buy what _I_ like, I like being able to go to a convention and sit down halfway thru and take a nap when I'm tired. *shrug* there's big perks to being on your own, especially when your lifestyle is different like mine.
