Trivial complaint of the day: surf sucks. And cold weather is coming. Damn!

You pretty much nailed it. At least she is being honest. She tells me I'm a great guy, a good husband and a great father, but as Harrison quite aptly put it "the candle just went out". So, as you imply, a marriage counselor or something like that is not going to help, because we don't have problems with our marriage, we get along great actually, and both treat each other very well. It's just that her feelings for me have faded and she wants to move on.

At first I was pretty devastated, but as I began to mull it over, I thought "you know what, this may not be the end of the world". I won't feel guilty if I am working on a project all day/week and not spending time with her. And I'd rather be doing stuff in the evenings like going to the gym or learning to play guitar, or taking scuba courses or whatever instead of sitting in front of the TV with her watching Law and Order reruns because I don't want her to be sitting there by herself. Know what I mean?

The real kicker though is that I have been saving $$ my entire adult life and not blowing cash on fun stuff(to a point), padding my 401K, etc. so that WE could have a comfortable retirement, buy an RV and travel to all the National Parks in our golden years. And now that sure ain't gonna happen. And of course I was thinking of bringing our future grandkids to Storyland and Disney and stuff like that together. ...............................FARK!!

Sorry for the rant, jetski brothers, but I haven't mentioned this to anyone yet. I haven't even spoken the words out loud, but it feels better to be able to share this with someone.

Peace.

I Bought new head lights for my car off fleebay after smashing a deer. Junk headlights had such small gauge wiring in the blinker and running light wiring harness they wouldn't work... I had to piece together the harness from my broken old head lights to the new head lights to get them to work.
Being on a time crunch to get my car back on the road i didn't have the option of just sending them back. Worst of all I contacted the ebay seller with a professional email letting them know the lights were faulty (I didn't ask for a refund I just wanted to give them a chance before I posted negative feedback) and the seller wrote back with no concerns about me the customer only themselves loosing money. They even threatened to have any feedback I had removed...Haha real nice ...assholes.
F'd by ebay again. When will I learn...

At least you can do it civilized and not give all your money to lawyers. Buddy of mine and his wife went through the same thing and used a divorce guide for dummies book.

I just ordered a new Seagate 2TB HDD for my camera server that is rated for surveillance applications. I went with the SV35 for those in the know.

Opened up my PC case to check my RAM today and discovered that the PC was already fitted with an RE3 Enterprise grade WD 500GB drive. So, other than increasing my storage capacity, I don't think I am going to see the increase in performance that I was really looking for.

We were really getting excited about selling our house and building our dream house next year. We had a contractor come in and give us an estimate for building it. He comes in at 440k for a three bedroom house! Totally dropped a bomb on me. Said a house like we had picked out will run us like 140 a square foot. We had talked to several people including my sister who just bought a brand new house that are in the 85-100 a square foot price range. The higher end was because they had to include purchasing the land. Was such a disappointment talking to this guy. Hopefully i can get together enough serious bids from subcontractors to convince the bank to let me do it as my own general contractor.
