First off let me say I had no intention of updating until Monday. I had decided on a romance/ James Marsters movie weekend. In other words anything from Never Been Kissed (no James) to Haunted Hill (2 minutes of James).

This month, it’s kind of an anniversary for me. See, a year ago I left my schmuck of a husband. I could go into detail but I wont. He was quite plainly not kind and fighting demons that despite numerous rehab stints, he could not beat.

I have 3 amazing kids that I could not allow to be subjected to this so, marriage was no longer an option. All I can honestly say is that I gave him every chance to better himself and supported all he could do from rehab and meetings to medication. Unfortunately for my family, my ex-husband was more dedicated to his demons.

*please do not send notes telling me how wrong I was for this or how strong I was. This is simply background*

Tonight I’m watching P.S. I love You. Of course my reason for obtaining it is, James. Even with dark hair he’s super sexy and too adorable for words. And after crying through the whole movie, some happy cry and some sad I realize that we all chase this impossible love. Women, and men alike. The idea might be different. Guys want a chick who maybe understands their need to play Quake 3 until bed and women want a guy who will watch the kids till she’s done with work, but we all want that dream. To find that fantasy mate. Who takes our shit and still looks into our eyes and sees someone amazing.

I know, I’m being corny and possibly mopey but the damn movie did it. So… here’s to my idea of an impossible love story.

I wrote this series while still married and full of hope of a happy ending. An extra chapter. For all who are reading I appreciate you taking the time. To all who are also reviewing, you’ve really helped me get through a difficult anniversary and I cant tell you how much that means.

6. Evaluation by Kaylorin [Reviews - 1] Liked (4300 words)
I'm so sorry for the lateness of this update. I've been having major technical troubles. First my Lappy went pfft (and let me tell you having the number 6 get stuck while doing rewrites is not helpful) then my hard drive said "Kaylorin #&*% YOU!" and to top is off the mouse on my desktop decided it had really put in as much time working that it could and would rather be burried next to Joyce than be forced to work. So after the traditional yelling at my computer and threatening it with a hammer (kept in my desk drawer just for this purpose) I went the the local Best Buy, showed them the waranty on the lappy and bought a new mouse. Lappy will be back home in 2-3 weeks and until then I have a nice new mouse that points and clicks.

Just to warn ya, I've never been to England. When I originaly drafted these I had a beta who lived in the area and tried to help me write portions that were not too far fetched. Hopefully its vague enough to pass mustard.

I'm so proud of ya'll who've been following this enough to guess a few of the clues manings. Hopefully I haven't made it all completely predictable and in fact I'm quite sure there are going to be a few surprises coming up in just a few chapters.

9. Unexpected Information by Kaylorin [Reviews - 4] Liked (2700 words)

School's back in for me. Life is full of drudgery like comm 101, which translated to speech class. Plus the torture of Chem 101 and the one and only course I've actually really been looking forward to, A+ Computer. In case you haven't figured it out yet, I'm a big ol geek, but I love it.
