I guess meeting Tina pretty much sums up the answer to the entire question. |

I graduated from college finally, I saw Paul 17 times and met some great people from SF. I had some terrific times with my daughter and my sons. Got reunited with my my niece and some terrific cousins. I let go of much of the past (late in the decade), I had a case of Peeps all to myself, and I grew a bigger set than I thought I'd ever could! |

The entire decade? Tina was just last year so I misunderstood the original question. I nearly died on dialysis, got a kidney transplant on March 1, 2005 and started dating my dialysis nurse until I met Tina. Oh, I became clean and relatively sober on November 23, 2003. |

There is nothing like new fresh love, right? I hope I can find someone who doesn't make me overthink. |

Highlight - discovered my passion Lowlight - losing people very special to me Paul Highlight - When he pointed at me at a concert (well, my sign) Paul Lowlight - Being closer than I've ever been but being too sick to enjoy it. Edited by iscreamer1, Jan 1 2010, 09:30 PM.
