I'm far from over it, but maybe I can start moving in that direction soon. Unfortunately, I've got two months before the lease is up on our apartment, so I get to rattle around here with our memories. Fun, huh? Anyway, I'm not dead, hello again.

Noc- welcome back my man! So sorry to hear about the demise of your relationship - believe me I've been there on several occassions and feel your pain. I've always engaged in a ritual burning. I take some object that represents that relationship - a picture or something small (and nothing valuable - hell, i'm not stupid!) - and burn it in some open space. Watching the smoke lift and dissipate reminds me that these memories and the pain will also drift away. (of course I also usually do this when i'm almost blind drunk, so its not quite as poignant as it sounds).
Anyway - remember, we're here for you!!!
