:-) Sounds like you're kinda where I am, Saul. I had a helluva time
last night, trying to convince my best girlfriend that I'm not looking
for anything serious right now. She kept saying, "You can't convince
me of that!"
But then I looked at the guy she's seeing, the one she'd just asked if
he knew anyone "for me." Told him, "Look, I'm just looking for
someone to go out and have fun with. You know? If and when anything
else happens, God will make it happen. For now, I just want to date."
Thankfully, *HE* understood what I meant.

I like the way you put that. :-)

Sparks can be fun. But it's that long-lasting, slow burn that keeps
you warm at night. Wouldn't it be nice to have something akin to a
mesquite fire in the fireplace?
