How many of us (myself included) have sat with a car engine running, a few blocks away from "home" reading emails and trying to avoid going home at all? How many of us feel more intimate with email and Internet colleagues we "know" at a safe distance?
If you feel your life is unsatisfactory and you are thinking of divorce, here are some things to consider.
Marriage equality is important, but I challenge the LGBTQ community to work together to prioritize legislation that encompasses a wider range of our community. Not everyone wants to get married. But everyone needs a job.

Politics is one of the four topics -- alongside money, sex and religion -- Emily Post says young ladies must never, ever broach on a first date. Here's why women should ignore that advice.
But lest these remarks paint me as an irritated, bitter (no, I'm not yet married myself) observer of this behavior, I should let you in on a little secret: I'm going to give all these Facebook-updating gals a run for their money when it's my turn.
I was existing day-to-day like a hamster running in the wheel of its cage. Always on the move, but going nowhere.
I propose we ban marriage among Homo sapiens -- all members of the human species. This resolves the issue of homosexual marriage once and for all.
Oh, hey. How's it going? You look sooooooo nice today! What's that you're wearing -- pants?! Verrrrry cutting edge. They say pants are the new black. ANYHOO, i have a box of Hershey chocolate items on my desk.
