Welcome to recovery

Mental note : Do not attempt a round trip flight to Colorado in one day.

Left the house at 7:30am and did not get back to my car until 12:15pm. I got to visit San Diego and Phoenix along the way. The flight was delayed coming back so I had to fly into Oakland or else I was fucked because the ‘train’ doesn’t run after 12:30pm - parked my car at the station.

I was so fortunate because Harriet was kind enough to pick me up at the airport and drive me over to the train. I was fried and didn’t all asleep until 2am.

WHAT A DAY.

I saw the ex in Colorado - we went and had a burrito together. He would have wanted more time, poor thing is so lonely. Long Haul Truck driving is not a job if you want to make friends. It was sad as he dropped me off at the airport and I saw him still watching me as I walked through the double doors.

Choices -you know? I would have still been with him if he wouldn’t have fucked it all up. But now, there’s no turning back. I just hope he’s happy someday. He’s still with his girlfriend that he took up when we were married. She’s as dumb as a doornail and quite the opportunist. He still sends her money each month no matter how badly she treats him. Just desserts I suppose, he hasn’t been an angel either but after a while - enough is enough. That bitch - karma is a bitch honey so you really should stop.

Meanwhile, I’ve spent the day laying around. I managed to clean up the kitchen :)

I watched Juno. Well let’s say I cried numerous times during Juno. Honestly - no teenager speaks like that - hate to break the fantasy bubble - but it was very cute.

Now I’ve got the Assassination of Jesse James in the ole DVD player. I didn’t even bother opening the shades today - I’m fine with it. Somedays you just want to be alone in the dark with the glow of the tv screen in the late afternoon.

I haven’t spoken to a soul either which is just wonderful. LA sent me a phone picture of her eyelashes that are quite long now due to that Revitalash application nightly. I just looked at it - knowing that I’d have to communicate how lovely they are… after all that would be the expected and most appropriate response. Now let me ask you - how vain can my buddy be? Yep, good ole LA who slathers herself from head to toe in baby oil to ensure her skin remains elastic and taut. Good luck I told her once - we all age babygirl. You can’t stop time.

I imagine at some point, ole LA will stretch her skin as tight as a drum to her skull in an attempt to look 25 at 45 and she’ll look quite interesting.

Goodness, such bitchiness on a cloudy day has got to be one of the most deadly sins.

My evil self thought - honey - wait until I lose some weight.

Hmmm. That requires effort.

Will do… will do.

Sounds like a day curled up with a bunch of movies is just what you needed! Relax and re-charge—you live a very busy life, sweetie.

Wow, sounds like an exhausting day. I have pretty much stopped that one-day travel because it’s WAY more tiring than taking one night in a hotel. When my company balks for $ reasons I just talk about whether it’s important or not if I go at all - I’m pretty inflexible on that kind of travel anymore (it knocks me out for several days).

I’d be vegging out too after that. I really liked Juno although I too thought she sounded as wise as a 35 year old and it didn’t ring true.

Day of DVD’s and introspection sounds damn fine to me.
I’m as vain as your friend, and would be thinking the same thing as you…just you wait till I’m thin, honey. I have some mean tendencies…
I hope you feel recharged for the week ahead.
Hugs -
Ruby

I can’t believe how cool and nice you are about your ex. his stupid girlfriend is less than what he deserves!

Yes, I know the feeling when I can’t bother to talk to anyone. Curling up with a book or a movie is the best that I can do. Also I often emerge of that with some clear thoughts.

No offense but I also find praising each body part separately on a weekly basis, a bit tedious. I too have a few friends like that. Being with them is hard work and I often skip. :)

Lots of love,

iniya
