Same Old Lang Syne

[docbrite]

I just saw Chris for the first time in two months. It was weird, especially since I wasn't expecting him. He came by the house to give me some money toward cat care and a peace offering of weed. We sat down and talked a bit even though I couldn't stop shaking and could barely look at him, mostly because I still love him even if I'm no longer in

"But I saw him, and I didn't fling myself at his feet and sob, and I didn't kill him, and I didn't die. So I guess that's progress."

Damn, I feel you with these words, brother, I feel you. Hang in there. Shit, I wish we could get drunk together again.

Man, me too. Ever since Mardi Gras I have an insatiable thirst for Bloody Marys.

hell yeah we need to find a way to have 40 or 50 Bloody Marys and have a night that would make Hunter S. Thompson and Tom Waits and Frank fucking Booth shake their heads and go, "Dude, these guys are hardcore! We're going to bed."

Until then, stay strong xo

How is it that I can hardly talk to someone I lived with for 20 years, but you and I can just pick up right where we left off after 20 years???

i'm all out of supportive clichés for once - but if there's progress them i'm definitely in the happy camp.

mainly i wanted to say - that song is a fave of mine, and yeah, it always hits home.

progress

It sounds like both of you are healing, at least a bit. *hugs offered*

Many people live in separate houses and have healthy relationships that meet each of their needs. I hope your healing will allow you two to be friends soon. 22 years is a very long time.
