Fun Times
Does it seem odd that it feels like I've been in sort of a holding pattern for the last five years or so? I guess I was feeling, "Gosh, I've waited my whole life to be a wife and mother. This is IT? The pinnacle of being?"
I thought I had to be content and deal with what I had, rather than wanting and seeking more. Life for me was over at 24. Yikes. I'm glad someone got the paddles out and shocked the HELL out of me - I'm back and kickin', baby. :P
I feel bad for my girls. When Ryan calls to say goodnight to TLO, he doesn't actually *listen* to what she says. There is just a lot of "mmhmm" and "I'll talk to you tomorrow. I love you, sweetie." Dick. I'm so glad to have them though. They were meant to be in this world and improve it somehow - if he was their path, then so be it. Now that they are here we can ALL be free. ^.^
He sent me a text. "I won't be home tonight. Will call around 9 to say goodnight to TLO. Still thinking about the house thing." I find it interesting that texting is his favorite means of communication now; not just with me, with the girlfriend too. Can you get much more impersonal? I'm sorry but if/when I do start dating someone, I hope he'll take the time to call me rather than coping out with a text.
Otherwise, I went out today to hang out with friends again. We played CIVILIZATION The Board Game; no it isn't any faster than the computer game. :P We were also their guinea pigs as they wanted to try out a Lebanese gyros recipe. It turned out to be more like Lebanese meatloaf, but still quite tasty. *laughs*
