Mar. 12th, 2011 02:04 amI've spent this whole day:
-cuddling, rocking, soothe-talking and nursing Elise, who has a terrible cold. It's been sweet, she's a little glassy eyed slow motion version of herself and I make it all better, which is nice.
-looking at tsunami videos, educating on layers of the earth, calming fears about nuclear reactors and the end of the world in 2012 (THANKS BOB, THANKS SO MUCH) and debating philosophies on how to go about our every day business while ALL THIS HAPPENS TO SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE, with Aaron (Annie covers her hands with her ears and asks us to please, please stop talking about it, everytime she hears another detail). Overall I'm very proud of everything about him and relatively satisfied with how our conversations conclude.
-lying face to face in Serious Talk or driving and grocery shopping and laughing about the serious talking, with Grant. One quote of his from tonight goes, "I really really hope today was the last time us attempting to have sex ends in us crying. That would be great." We laughed uproarously about that, which has to count for something... He has a counseling appointment tomorrow at 11. It's the first time he's ever gone to counseling either voluntarily, or as an adult (he was forced into it as a teenager). He found the guy online and emailed him from his job. It's a stretch to afford even with the sliding scale but G himself said he's at a point where we have to prioritize it - we'll see how it goes.
Intermissions from these activities included:
-a really great, long shower. I had went way too long with a shower, really people I realized I didn't know when I last took one, though I was certain it was prior to Sunday based on when I painted my nails last and how I quantify polish lasting. I've went swimming multiple times though? DON'T JUDGE ME! :p My hair was basically wild multi-chlorinated dreadlocks, which is...cool....in a way...... anyway yeah I've been revelling in this foreign feeling of cleanness and smooth-shaven legs and armpits and freshly moisturized face skin and super conditioned hair ever since. This is how the other half lives!! rofl
-cooking and eating a great dinner - french dip (roast beef sandwiches on crusty bread, dipped in au jus broth stuff) that I had butter sauteed portabello strips to go with.
-long, sweet rum and coke binge. Now I'm all warm and tingly from rum. And my rum is gone so it's finally time to go hunt down Jess's recommendation for my next rum purchase. Grant was choking down big swigs of my drink on who the hell knows what whim and was completely choking and horrified at the end every time, and then calling me a drunk, aghast, as he watched me chug it like it was a milkshake or something. I'm DESCENDED FROM PIRATES, OK?!
I really, really appreciate every comment and also, perhaps especially, the long email replies I got from a few of you, following my last entry...thank you, and I will be replying to you all individually. I just haven't started yet, as I know it will take me awhile to do you all justice. It's an amazing thing, when I really feel the love from people who come and read this rambling of mine ♥
