Surreal

It's been a strange couple of days. I'm really excited about tomorrow.

Fred of the Day, 10/8/11

Ok, not Fred, but a good picture of the Barney-monster eyeing up the little snack dogs running around next door.





Quote of the Day 10/8/11

"The only way to live happily ever after is to do it one day at a time."
--Unknown

I guess I'm practical that way - at least for now. Sure, I have short and long term goals (if anyone would have ever thought enough to ask or even care about them), but I've been thrust into this living day by day mentality, mostly in order to keep my sanity :-)


Good day today

Maybe this is the start of more good days than bad? I really think that having done this whole break up thing once before, it would be easier this time. I know I can do it - all it takes is time.

Quote of the Day, 10/5/11

“If someone wants to be a part of your life, they’ll make an effort to be in it. Don’t bother reserving a space in your heart for someone who doesn’t make an effort to stay.”
— Unknown

Not sure when I'll get to this point, but I'm sure I will eventually.



When will it change?

Why is he the first thing I think about whenever I wake up, and the last thing I think about before I fall asleep? And sometimes he even invades my dreams.

I think I've been spoiled ....

Or else my standards are too high. I know after a recent experience that I need to be with someone I can have an intellectually stimulating conversation with (in addition to a significant number of other qualifications). I truly think that after the last three years, I've been ruined - I'm going to expect discussions and questions and conversations like I'd been having. He set a SUPER high bar to measure up to, and honestly, I enjoyed it.

Fred of the Day 10/2/11

Got a new camera (finally). This is one of the first shots, straight out of the camera. It's really a good camera - now all I have to do is get some good photo editing software (a computer that worked would probably help, too), and I'll be all set!





How .....

.... Do you tell someone you miss them, when they don't want to hear it?

I think you just have to learn to live with it, and hold it in, and just miss them silently.

The problem is that I've never been silent.

I'm just lonely. It's not that I don't have things I could do, or people to do them with .... But it's still easy to be in a room with a hundred people and miss the one person you want to be with. I was never scared of being alone -- but lonely is another story.




Just gonna be one of those days ....

Where no matter what I do to avoid thinking about it, I'm going to miss him. Sometimes it just hits me like a wave, and I can't escape it, so I guess I have to let it wash over me.
