Okay.
So, that was a few months.
I broke up with Greg.
I'd been distant with him because I couldn't connect with him or talk to him because he's so repressed. It's impossible. My love affair with Laci Green started because I was trying to educate him on basic sexual functions. He's 26!
We went out for our 2 year anniversary. Late, because we'd both forgotten it. We saw a movie, had some food, and then as we wandered around Newcastle I realised I didn't want to be there. Or, more specifically, I did. Just...not with him. I felt great in this dress I had, and I'd lost about 10lbs by then, so was feeling great about myself, but I just felt wasted on him. I felt like I was doing so much to make him feel better and make this work, and he wasn't going to his therapy, he wasn't taking any feedback on small fixable details. So things ended.
Mostly amicably. He was away for a lot of the summer which made it easier, and I had a one night stand who has since turned into a friend. Incidentally I know more about what the guy likes in bed than I do about what Greg likes, soo...right decision made.
I've also lost 17lbs. Kicking weight loss's ass indeed. More than half way done. It's been slooow but definitely maintainable. I had a couple of weeks off because of stress and still managed to maintain, so its better habits and less life-hatred.
Work is going really well, into my stride. Gave a biiiiig company-wide presentation, which went okay and actually fixed a lot of stuff. Got four bosses. Two of them had a confrontation during the meeting, one took me aside after to say I did really well and have great ideas.
Excite : D
I'm doing NaNoWriMo this year, so hopefully will be updating progress here.
I guess I've been too busy trying to keep tabs on what's happening in my life to actually write any of it down.
work,
weight loss,
the ex-boy,
real life,
