I should have written “truly memorable food”. Lawyers notoriously follow their stomachs. Part of my never ending problem. Last night I ate “part” of a chocolate pie.

I think you’re one with giant gunz now.
After today’s dips you just might be right. Best pump in ages.

How is your life going?
Much, much wiser now. I”ve been hiding in my apartment for the last 16 months (embarassment). That changed Friday when I resumed going to the upscale neighborhood grocery. I then ate dinner at a local pickup bar amid about 40 good looking women of all ages there for hen parties. It was just a reconissance run, and I expect to frequent that place on Thursday nights. There was this 50 something woman there who I picked out and who actually smiled at me. (it helps that I’m still about 90% blond and on trt) She was seemingly perfect. Reminded me of college hookups.
Also, someone from church is getting me into a local bridge club that might produce some leads. That one’s kind of iffy. But at least I’m expanding options.

Good! I’m glad you’re getting back out. I can only imagine what a pain in the ass it must be, though. I assume you’ve tried dating apps?
That’s how I met my second wife. It did match us perfectly, but after 13 years she just wanted to be single. So, I’m staying away from those, for now.

Seems like the easiest way to meet people in the right age range, looking for the same things you are. Your ex sucks, but she’s a one-off, not representative. I think also that you have a lot more information now about what you want and don’t want than you did after losing your first wife.
Do you ever peek into Off Topic? There’s been an interesting conversation in the Fatherhood thread about “cleaning up after” and communication in marriage, and I’d love your input. It also starts with an article about women opting out of relationships and preferring to be solitary. Here is where it starts: The Fatherhood Thread - #445 by BrickHead
I completely understand if you don’t want to set foot in it, so no pressure whatsoever!
