The Poverty of Expectation
I got the DNA test kit that I am sending up to my "maybe daddy" today - he is happily willing to do the test to solve this mystery which is absolutely amazing. Funny how a kind, reasonable act comes off as amazingly heroic when you are used to the men in your life being consistently disappointing. (I recognize that is a sad tribute to my life thus far)
It will take a few months to get results but...I am pretty stoked...and probably letting myself get a little too convinced he is the one.
Scored a really good A Perfect Circle concert ticket for Nov 30....fml, seeing Maynard 2x in one year is amazeballs. Very excited to see APC live, really love their stuff. The best part is it is not in the summer...I am skipping some shows I would otherwise go to due to the likely weather (that being sunshine and heat) so a nice miserable, rainy season show makes me happy!
Coincidentally...I got a 2nd cousin match on my Ancestry acct the other day. I messaged her and got her story about being put up for adoption in the 60s...I got all the details and determined we must be related through her birth father b/c her mom's info (full name, etc) did not match anyone in our family. There was no full name for the bio-father but there was a lot of detail and through the description of the father's siblings I think I have a solid idea who it is....so I gave her all the info...and I hope she will just call and get it sorted. The bio-father knew all about the adoption so it won't blow up his world. Sadly, I found the obituary for her birth mother (so sad!), she missed meeting her by a year.
Today I am back to work after a week of being off sick...not sure how I will cope without at least 2 naps today.
