Wow.
Relief carvings of trees in a forest.

How far away is this cave from you?
Is a visit possible?

It's about 1,600 miles (2574.9504 kilometers) away. So a 22 hours drive. So, kind of close? :P

I found a cavern in my state (the only non-wet cave that give tours in my state apparently). It's pretty far, with a 5 hour drive.

I'm only about six hours away, I've been there it's very cool. Plus I live in southern Colorado so I get mainly New Mexico radio, tv, etc, and they're always showing cool pictures of Carlsbad...it's the only thing worth seeing in New Mexico tbh.

What about Bandelier National Monument? That looks pretty cool.

Can you stay with a friend while she's at your place?


No, unfortunately. Luckily she's changed her plan and is now leaving on Saturday afternoon. The bigger problem is the permanent resident here. We've become almost entirely hostile towards one another at this point (as I'm trying to detach).


I'm sorry to hear it's not working out :heart:


Thanks. Yeah, it's painful to think about how it was several years ago because I really thought I was finally through with being alone. Now I know I'll soon be in that place again, and some days I wonder if this was my only chance. Then other days I feel really optimistic and look forward to the possibility of a future relationship. Ah my brain is a confusing place.


I stayed in a dysfunctional relationship for a long time because:

a) I hate change and was scared about what I'd do and how I'd do it;
b) I didn't want to be alone;

Now I'm there, in hindsight, it was the best thing. I really like being on my own. Although, I'm not treating myself very well lately.

Oh, I see I've missed a lot whilst doing Windows updates.

Yep, those are the two biggest things that hold me back and have kept me from leaving. It doesn't help that this has been the only person that stuck around....because in low times it makes me doubt my ability to maintain a relationship with someone else.

Kato was my only person but it did last for 23 years. I knew if we split up, I'd never find anyone else but that's not so bad.

We're still friends and we still talk and see each other every now and then but there's no chance of reconciliation.

It's great that you were able to remain friends! It's not often that that happens.
Even though it's clear that we're beyond damaged (and that he's likely been emotionally abusive), stupid me still can't come to terms with the idea of not having him in the next room. It's so ridiculous of me.

I went to work despite still having the migraine but they sent me home and told me to go to the hospital.
I told them what the doctor said on Thursday (that he thought I had meningitis). As it turns out, I don't. It's just a week long migraine and photophobia.

They said they had a 'duty of care'. I understand that but I can't afford to be off work any more. I've got no sick leave left and I'm not being paid for the days I had off and I've got some big bills.
