2009-03-19T19:02:00.000-05:00

Why do the best conversations happen drunk and why are my best conversations alone these days? I am/was happily married and somehow feel free to talk to him only when I am slightly/maybe a bit more sloshed? Holy fuck why do I say this to you who i don't know and not him who I have been with for 10 years? The kids make a difference. Though thinking about it I don't want to end up a f*ing drunk just to deal, that is not good for the kids right? What a fuck fest, sorry. Don't feel a need to respond, I have been reading your blog backwards and feel like that is how my relationship with the dear husband "cough gag" has gone. For my own peace of mind I have to write this and that is enough.

My right eye waters at random times. Not my left eye, just my right eye, it looks like I am crying. It happened in the movie theater the other night. New Guy was all "what's wrong, are you ok?" I'm like "yeah, don't worry I'm fine, but my eye is retarded."

I've just decided I'll give this cold til midnight tonight, then I'm done with it, it has to leave, I hope it listens to me.

A couple months ago I had a cold for 2 weeks and my nose was so horrible. It was like blowing my nose with sandpaper. And those awesome lotion tissues felt like I poured bleach in my eyes. Yeah, I might be allergic. Stupid colds. Hope it's over soon.

Oh I've got it, and I look sexy as hell!

2009-03-19T15:30:00.000-05:00

Do you have that really sexy thing that comes with having a cold? You know that one! The red, swollen, raw skin around the nose. That's dead sexy!

Jealous! Bright green eyes, steam coming out of the ears, full-blown cartoon jealousy.

But you deserve it!!

2009-03-16T11:56:00.000-05:00

LiLu: Did I say shoes for everyone? Uh, well ok, I guess I did, your first pair is on me.

It took so long for me to be able to say things are good, but I'm glad I didn't give up, this really can be everything I hoped it would be, and I really think it will be more than I could have hoped for.

2009-03-16T11:29:00.000-05:00

"Shoes for everyone!"

Um. I am totally holding you to that.

So glad the weekend went so well! It does take a while to adjust to one another, and it is such a good feeling when you look at each other and finally say, "You know what? We're good. We're REALLY good."

2009-03-16T11:17:00.000-05:00

Fearless: Thanks for the b-day wishes! I absolutely cannot wait for my trip to London, rest assured I will post pictures and share the whole story with you.

Sarah: I'm so glad to hear I'm not getting boring to read, but if having a drama free life means my writing gets boring, I can handle being boring.

You? Boring? NEVER! I prefer my life without drama...

2009-03-16T10:55:00.000-05:00

You? Boring? NEVER! I prefer my life without drama, so I'm happy yours is going that way.

Bayjb said it best. Cheers to the good days!

2009-03-16T10:11:00.000-05:00

It all sounds wonderful, and no, not boring at all. It's taken me a while to catch up on my blog reading, but I just wanted to say Happy Birthday...and you will LOVE London. One of my favourite cities of all time. Although Chicago is up there too...

As long as the good days outweigh the bad, that's all that matters.

2009-03-12T15:48:00.000-05:00

I'm so happy to see this version of you. Strong, independent, capable, decisive. You know what you want to do, and you do it. You aren't just sitting at home waiting for him to call or show up. Bravo my friend! Bravo!

2009-03-11T14:13:00.000-05:00

That, my love, is a STELLAR year. So glad I could have been a part of it.

Happy (early) Birthday!!!

Wow, you had an amazing year. I can only imagine that this year will be so much richer.

Sounds likes someone is maybe, sort of, possibly looking forward to 29 and all the exciting possibilities it contains.

Happy Birthday!!

2009-03-09T15:05:00.000-05:00

LOE: I can agree that relationships are work, and its ok. And I do think we both want the same things, we want to be with each other, but we a two very different people too. I guess thats what keeps it interesting? Who knows. I'm just in it for as long as it takes. As long as it takes for me to get out, or as long as it takes for me to be completely happy in it.

2009-03-09T14:45:00.000-05:00

Relationships take work. Anybody who says otherwise is a fool. So "working on it" is ok.

I think what matters is to make sure that you both want the same thing, aka a "us". After that, you both, "work on it". And you know, no matter what we project in the future, we always work on it day after day.

We can promise each other to love each other forever and blahblahblah but truth is, it's an every day work... every day pleasure too.

2009-03-09T12:06:00.000-05:00

I'm so proud/impressed/inspired that you are able to tell him what you need and want. You are amazing!

2009-03-09T11:39:00.000-05:00

Sarah: I asked him that very question earlier this week. I said "why are you in a relationship? What do you get from me that you don't get from friends, family and work?" He thought, and thought, and said he never really thought about it, just that he really likes to be with me and spend time with me.

I said I am in a relationship for emotional support, for someone to talk to about my day, for a 'home base', a safe place to land, and a hand to hold. And I'm not getting those things.

That was a really great conversation where I got alot off of my chest, and imagine that I didn't even blog about it.

Anyway, he said he'd work on it, he always says that.

Good news is my bottle of wine lasted the weekend unopened so I'm all set for out meeting tonight!

2009-03-09T11:31:00.000-05:00

Just curious, but what does he need from you? We know what you need from him, but what does he need? Are you giving it to him? Consistently? If so, why are things unbalanced. Why is it ok for you to be left wanting, but not him?

P.S. I'm really excited about our meeting tonight! FUCKED!!
