As I sit here in the dark (literally )

As I'm sitting here in the dark, trying to distract myself with the newest Exodus film.  I'm grateful my son put vudu on the television  because with out it, I'd just be sitting in the dark.
The point of this is that my life has given me another lesson to learn.

About a year ago I met this guy. OMG I was in heat! I've never had those feelings, never. I wanted to invade his personal space  because I was so enamored!  So I hired him to work on Nana's house  just to be close to him. The magnetic attractions just about   crushed me. There was no reciprocity in feelings, but just being near him was enough.    Yup, I'm in the dark.  Well there was a falling out of our friendship.  I figured out that I just would be better without the temptation  than with it.
okay, makes sense. I cruised along, and didn't forget him, I just chose to ignore the feelings. He is 11 years younger than me! 

Uh oh, October rolls around,  and guess who calls me. The boy toy. I heard may I borrow  five dollars for gas. Oh sucker I am,  I gave him 10. He kept popping in to say hey,  how are you? I let him. It was nice to have the attention. So as life happens,  we cross paths again in the beginning of December.  His living arrangements  have dumped him on the street.  I know, what the hell am I thinking?  But inside my head I know if the table was turned,  he'd help me. He moves his stuff in, as well as his dog and himself. Charity never fails; it is stated in the Bible,  so I have to follow. 

Did I mention I'm here in the dark? Typing on my smartphone?  So many typos to edit. He sleeps on the couch for a week, and then I invited him to sleep in my bed. STUPID.  STUPID.  STUPID. Remember I am really attracted to him? Okay, he's in my bed. More time passes, and um yeah, you're thinking  OHH NO SHE DIDN'T.  Yeah, after a 12 year marriage that didn't have the physical  side. I jumped his bones. He's  been sleeping in my bed ever since.  The physical  untouched  lonely sideways me was thrilled with someone to snuggle  up with. 

More to follow, too dark.
