Stinging 1

Booze: Always the answer.
How was your weekend so far? While you read this, I’m probably sweating my balls off after another workout, and doing comics while drinking light beer and water. Been back in the gym (my work has a free one, and it’s pretty fucking choice) for the last 3 weeks. 8 lbs and a full belt notch down.
But god I am out of shape.
I think ‘My second girlfriend broke up with me’ is slightly below even first world problems. It’s like saying “I wanted steak and lobster for dinner, but we’re out of lobster.”
As a poly person who’s gone through his share of breakups of secondary relationships, it still hurts, and sucks.
Speaking as a poly person, the hurt of being dumped doesn’t magically go away just because you have other relationships.
+3. It still hurts.
Also Poly. Also able to say from experience, breaking from one relationship hurts just as badly if it your only or if you are in others. If it didn’t, you wouldn’t have love for that person.

i really hope that alex dumps him as well…
it would be the best thing that could happen to him…
cue: ‘I got 99 problems but a bitch ain’t one of them’…

That’s horrid. Why would you wish him that much pain at once?
Vodka? Sounds more like a jäger occasion.
Heh. It’s amazing how many people don;t know that Jaegermeister is actually COUGH SYRUP.
The Jaegermeister – “Hunt Master” – would carry a small flsk of that shit so your scratchy ass throat cough doesn’t scare away the game.
My weekend is Dragoncon, thanks for asking. I ache in every muscle of my body and yet have a permanent grin.
Hanging out at home, errands, cooking, gear maintenance. And watching Burning Man on Ustream, aka Camp Envy.
Love the video. I took Dad to the gym for years, until he couldn’t do it any more. He turned the tables on an in-shape guy laughing at him once. Picture a fat old man, very slowly walking with two canes (Korea). The fellow made a few comments about blobs. Dad waited until he got off the (long pull) station, slowly maneuvered over, looked at the setting, sneered, and set it to max. Then he sat down and did a set of 20 long pulls, got up with the help of his canes, and sneered again at the young man. He quickly left. Ya never know…
Good for your Dad. My Uncle flew during WW2, then served just over 30 years with LAPD where he got into regular gym workouts and he still does it today. At 91, he may be slow but he’s in better shape and far stronger than 90% of men in their 50s including me.
It’s been a good weekend, thanks for asking!
Took my Dad to a Padres/Dodgers game at Petco Park, grilled tasty meats, experimented with hot sauces, did a metric fuc*ton of yardwork, paid bills, had mildly freaky afternoon sex.
I am now reading your webcomic while working through a growler of Russian Imperial Stout from Societe Brewery. Good times.
Back to work tomorrow at 6 though, so… yeah.
Anyone else feeling some Homosexual undertones?
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
I haven’t been in a poly relationship, but I agree with Poly Cat. If it doesn’t hurt, you never felt anything for them in the first place. Even if you have a spare, so to speak. Though in such a relationship, they should always be equal, not a backup choice. Love is unlimited, so I can see how it would be possible to be in a poly relationship. I went out with twins in primary school, but was a short term thing. Not a serious relationship. It would be fun to go out with twins as an adult. 🙂
