Well that blind date was a monumental disaster.

Last time I let my receptionist set me up with one of her friends.

Christ almighty.

	Smart man. I was married and divorced, you'd think I would've learned my lesson. Well, one person. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The longest relationship I've been in was six months. Was marriage really that bad? He must be a pretty important person to you if the name he calls you is something you prefer over your actual name. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It was good, at the start, but then things just went bad and got worse the longer it went on. Only positive thing to come out of it was my daughter. Yeah, I guess you could say that. I don't know, just- Anyways, other folk call me Leo or Leonard so it's whatever you'd rather. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's good, though. Your daughter I mean. Do you get to see her often? It's your name, dude. If you want to be called Bones, I don't have a problem with that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I see her every couple weeks despite my crappy relationship with my ex-wife so that's something. Bones it is then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's good that you get to see your daughter. I don't have a great relationship with my folks. It's not a bad one, but we're kind of...estranged, I guess? Sounds good to me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can't be easy. I lost my dad a while back but still have my mom though she doesn't like LA so she doesn't come out this way often. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm sorry to hear about your dad and that your mom doesn't come to visit often. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justmybonesleft 2019-06-16 09:12 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, same to you about the estrangement. Definitely rougher than having a mom who hates LA. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Its mostly me. I worked for the ATF for a few years. It was hard going back to Colorado sometimes after some of the shit I'd seen. Like, Mom would ask me about my cases and sometimes I couldn't tell her about them because they were still going through the courts. When I could talk about them, I could tell they freaked her out, so I just kind of stopped. I learned pretty quickly that I don't have a lot in common with my parents.

	Though family ain't always blood. Sometimes it's what you make of it. Doesn't mean it's any easier. What do you do now? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notarookie 2019-06-16 09:25 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, that's true. I moved around a lot back then, though. Kinda hard to make friends that way. I do private security now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can see how that would be a thing. You more settled these days? Nice, I'm a vet. Big change from doctor. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notarookie 2019-06-16 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	I'm getting there. I've got an apartment that's slowly looking like its lived in and I've met a few people. The county kind of insisted I did back in February when it tethered me to some poor dude. What made you decide to become a vet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justmybonesleft 2019-06-21 07:25 pm UTC (link)
	Tethered? After I left the military I didn't want to deal with people 'cause I don't like 'em all that much, animals are preferable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's a long story. I can understand that. People can be assholes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justmybonesleft 2019-06-24 04:12 pm UTC (link)
	The sort of story you can share over drinks? Not gonna argue there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notarookie 2019-06-24 04:41 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, having a few drinks in me while telling the begining part would probably be for the best. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I know a good bar? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notarookie 2019-06-27 08:17 pm UTC (link)
	Where? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justmybonesleft 2019-07-14 02:41 pm UTC (link)
	Meet me [here] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notarookie 2019-07-16 01:59 pm UTC (link)
	You got it. (Reply to this) (Parent)
