That's what I need.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Huh.  July 4th.  Independence Day.  Funny thing to happen on it, y'know?  A lot guys I know would celebrate this.  Revel in it.  A chance to break free free.  And here I go on about love and stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sorry, I'm being rude I suppose.  I'm Jim Dawson.  I live in Ohio.  I'm a typesetter for a large print company.  It's nothing exciting, but I like my coworkers and it pays the bills.  It's 9-5 usually, so I have time for family dinners with David (our 6 year old son) and Allison.  My boss is nice and gives me a 2 week vacation every year so my family can go somewhere fun.  Last year we went to Yellowstone.  Saw some bears and mooses. &lt;br /&gt;We were going to go to southern California this year.  David wants to see Legoland.  I guess that'd be expensive for a lot of people, but Allison works as a therapist and I bike to work so there's no gas cost and only one car.  We have the money to fly out and stuff.  My sister lives there, we'd stay with her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've never cheated on Allison.  I've never hit her.  You have to know this.  I've loved her since day 1.  I guess I have to talk to a divorce lawyer on Monday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember playing with Legos as a kid, I love watching David play with them.  He's named after two people you know, my dad and Allison's brother.  It was convenient and fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe I'll take him to Legoland anyways.&lt;br /&gt;Tomorrow I'll try and be more coherent about my life.  I promise.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8294958172814867658-2199465501660254473?l=ridevre.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ridevre.blogspot.com/feeds/2199465501660254473/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8294958172814867658&amp;postID=2199465501660254473' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8294958172814867658/posts/default/2199465501660254473'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8294958172814867658/posts/default/2199465501660254473'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ridevre.blogspot.com/2008/07/july-5-2008.html' title='July 5, 2008'/><author><name>Jim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11491592416265121194</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294958172814867658.post-3329000378008544315</id><published>2008-07-04T01:43:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2008-07-04T01:43:28.743-05:00</updated><title type='text'>July 4, 2008</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I'm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   &lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;LEAVING&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 255);"&gt;you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was it.
