I did it...
Be forewarned... My romantic side comes out in this post, ugh, haha.
As most of you know, I've been toying with the idea of speaking with Alison over the last several weeks. Well, I already told Moonie about it, he was the first to know... I spoke with her on Sunday evening. I went to her home, and instead of just "showing up" as I tend to do with friends of mine anymore due to my "abilities" as you could say, I got her a small bouquet, knocked on her door, and waited for her to answer. I'll be the first to admit, I thought my heart was going to jump out of my chest; I hadn't been that nervous for years... Possibly since she and I first became an item back in grammar school.
She welcomed me with open arms, which made me feel much better. She'd always been so positive regarding everything since our divorce, but I still had a bit of doubt regarding how she'd truly receive me. We sat in her parlour over tea, and discussed more things than I can even remember. I discussed with her some things I still felt guilty about, regarding our marriage and my subsequent relationship with Maxine (world's largest mistake award goes to me for that one, good God). I got a lot off of my chest, and feel much better than I have in a very long time. I'm just so thankful Alison was so understanding and forgiving... Those are a couple of her endearing qualities that I've missed so much.
Frankly, I won't lie. She was my first love. Maxine, well, I thought I loved her, and to be blunt, she screwed me. Lisa was wonderful, but ever since she passed away, I haven't seen nor heard from her... I've tried to find her, but with no success, I don't know what to do. I miss her immensely... I'd love to see her again.
But, when you get down to it, there's always been something about Alison, and now having spoke with her, I'm overjoyed to have her a major part of my life once more. It's as if I have a part of me once again that's been missing for so long.
I know, I know, you all are ready for me to shut up about it, haha. I'll leave it at that. However, she invited me to spend the Holiday with her and Christopher and his wife, and is extending the invite to mum. Talk about a bit of nostalgia, haha. It's been a long time since the four of us have been together for the Holidays. But, I think this is a good way to end the year.
Moonie and I are going on a bit of a road trip starting this weekend I believe. I don't know how much I'll update during that time frame, but I'm sure one of us will find our way to a computer enough to keep you all posted on our endeavours. But the question now becomes, is the world ready for Entwistle and Moon... again?
