My God I am a lucky bitch!
Lately I have been asking myself why I put up with someone else's shortcomings and faults...but it wasn't until recently that I truly discovered it's because that someone puts up with all of mine. Charlie and I fight...I'm not going to even try to deny that. And everytime we did, I put all the blame on him...I told myself that he was in the wrong and that he caused the fight. In actuality, one chooses their own fate, and I've realized that I am just as wrong as he is (if not more so). I'm not doing the complete opposite, I'm not putting all the blame on myself now, I'm just realizing that it's 50-50 in a relationship, everything you do is half and half. I need to start asking myself why Charlie puts up with my shortcomings and faults...and why he loves me so damn much.
We find out the sex of the baby in 2 days. I'm past excited...I'm ecstatic! Charlie can't hardly wait, listening to him talk about it is so cute, his eyes just light up and he smiles and touches my stomach. I know he's going to be a great daddy.
I should have warned you guys earlier that this post is going to be all about Charlie, because he said some wonderful things to me this morning and made me feel like I was on top of the world, so now all I can do is think about him and the fact that it's a grueling 7 hours until he gets home.
It's so scary, this is the first real, REAL relationship I've ever been in, Charlie has taught me a lot without even knowing it. I just hope I can live up to all the expectations a wife has to fulfill. It's a little easier on me, though, because Charlie's ex-girlfriend was a pain in the ass (according to him, his roommate, and a handful of other friends who knew her), so I look like a saint compared to her, which makes things much simpler. I hate to sound bitchy with that, I'm not trying to, I never knew her, but everyone who did says she was...a little difficult (I'm putting it nicely). I'm sure that things between them were beyond my knowledge, a lot of stuff probably happened between them, I'm just relaying what I know from others.
Charlie and I have been having a lot of fun redecorating the upstairs. We bought a new computer and put it up here, and got high-speed internet. Then we put a TV, VCR, the Gamecube, a microwave, and a bunch of chairs up here, along with all of Charlie's football/Redskins memorabilia. It's looking quite nice. We spent all day Saturday going through the boxes in the crawl space and threw out a bunch of stuff. The only downside to being up here is the HEAT! But we're going to buy some fans soon, so everything will all work out in the end.
*Smile* Bill Maher is so smart. I really do respect him in a weird way, he makes sense about a lot of things, even though he tends to offend people. I think his opinions are very valid; sometimes I believe he should be in politics, but Republicans would never have it.
That was off-topic.
I wish I could figure out how to work the scanner, so I could put a picture of Charlie on here. *Shrug* Oh well.
I think I've officially run out of things to say. I'm sure that's a relief to most of you :)
Live happy, love intensely, and die knowing someone cared.
