My fatal flaw is pride.  There's something about being made the fool, or looked down on, or seen as imperfect in a light that I did not intend that is incredibly difficult for me.

It's in that same light that you had the timing of my last post where despite some big things happening in my life, I had kept it largely to myself.  I wouldn't want to be seen as overly optimistic or getting ahead of myself and then have it all fall apart.  That would be a rather unfortunate egg on my face.

Well, as it happens, there was no getting it.  That relationship lasted a whole of 5 days following that post.  So as a consolation prize, here's my otherwise unused Halloween costume.
