http://www.pepysdiary.com/archive/1661/12/14/index.php
All the morning at home lying in bed with my wife till 11 o’clock. Such a habit we have got this winter of lying long abed. Dined at home, and in the afternoon to the office. There sat late, and so home and to bed.
----
One of my friends keeps asking me if I'm ready for a relationship. The way she says it, it sometimes sounds like she's got some guy she's just waiting to introduce me to. I know that's not it, but, kind of funny.
I'm not sure that I am ready for a relationship, but damn, I wish I had someone to play with - someone who likes to do the kind of traveling I enjoy, who swims and snorkels and maybe even scuba dives (that would be a bonus!), who likes to backpack and hike, who likes the same tv shows and movies that I do, who likes to read in bed and listen to Car Talk and drink tea and read the paper on weekends. I miss "all the morning at home lying in bed with my BF till 11 o'clock. Such a habit we had of lying long abed." It was really fun. I look back on all the good stuff of my 11 years with that BF... and the next relationship with a BF I met through the local Utne Salon. Hmm. This is the longest I've ever been by myself.
I wonder if there really is someone else out there for me. It seems like it'd be so much work to look - personals and dating and stuff. I might be getting a bit closer to the tipping point of it being worth the effort to look.
