June 4th–Grateful

Today I’m grateful for: Scrounging the CUTEST outfit from the depths of my closet: minty blue print dress…clingy and cut on the bias worn under a cropped mint blue ballerina sweater (somehow ...

How Can I Ever…

….thank them??? My parents (well, my dad) called and emailed ALL of the vendors for the wedding today and undid (almost) everything that we had in the works. I just did NOT have it in me to do...

June 3rd–Grateful

Today I’m grateful for: My Papa REALLY helping out my heart by calling all the wedding vendors for me and canceling/informing all parties involved (see previous entry for deets) The therapi...

Monday Morning

Every morning I wake up, hoping this has all been a bad dream. No such luck this morning. I’m still so shocked that the EXMF is “ready to start and looking for a serious relationship”. How on...

June 2nd-Grateful

Better do my grateful list for today: Getting out of bed this morning. Having an amazingly understanding boss who talked to me for quite a while about stuff today. Eating something today...

Profile**

Are you kidding me? I had a sneaking suspicion, and I was right. It took less than 24 hours for EXMS to put a profile up on Match.com. It’s nauseating and it hurts so much to think that he ...

Never Like This

I have had breakups before, but never like this. In the past, I’d seen signs. In fact, I always knew for sure what was coming, so I either braced myself or I softened the blow. Neither party w...

Starting Today

I know, you’re going to be so sick of me until I get myself out of this. I took a drive today to get something to drink. I turned on the radio to NPR because I wanted NO part of any music. Bu...

I Did It

Early last evening I went to a “thing” that someone told me about. It was an event that I was told I wouldn’t want to miss. It was at the convention center, which is walking distance and halfw...

Wreck

I’m sorry. I don’t really want to have pity parties here, but I need to get this out and I figure this is as good a place as any. I could make these entries private, and I don’t know why I’m p...

Today

I am not strong.


May 28, 2008

At 40.

Again, I can’t tell you how much your notes of encouragement mean to me. I have to give a special shout-out to someone who took time out of their holiday on Monday to text me back off the ledge...

The Hole Thing

OK. Deep breaths. I started writing the whole thing out. What happened. The events leading up to EXMS leaving me at a party in a city that’s a 4 hour drive away from home, moving out of ou...


I got a private note from someone who asked me what I meant in my last entry by “conditional vs. unconditional” love and that shouldn’t two people love each other conditionally anyway? For exam...

F*cked-Update

Suppose I should update while I wait for Best Bud to get here. She’s coming to town with her honey and their baby, but since I only have one bed now, honey and baby will spend the night at anot...


I started this yesterday… Scorpio (October 23 – November 21) Your fears may be running rampant as the Moon grows full in your sign. Unfortunately, you may not have a say in the timing. Certai...

Alone in the Loft

You have NO idea how comforting your notes are. Seriously. I don’t know what I would do without OD. RL friends are being absolutely soothing and supportive, too. And of course, Mom and Dad a...

Dumbfounded

At my parents’ place in the boonies, and wireless connection is iffy, so I don’t know if I’ll be able to post, but here goes… Working on polishing off a bottle of wine and a box of Milk Duds. ...

Disbelief

Talks not going well, and it feels like the world is falling apart. I seriously cannot BELIEVE this. I am on my hands and knees. I am a blathering idiot. Won’t someone PLEASE stop me????

Snap…*

(not the “Ginger” kind). I think the wedding hubub has freaked out TFMS. He snapped. We are calling it off. Postponing? I don’t know yet. *I’m panicking.*

Sadder Than Sad

My God. I don’t even know what to say right now. It’s not a death–but close. I can’t believe this.

Marriage 101

Is that you, Anonynoter? My ex-boyfriend? It sure sounds like it. Remember when you left me those notes years ago? Heh. Last night, TFMS and I had our 3rd premarital counseling session wit...

I Get Butterflies*

Geburtstagskind

Today is Hans’s (TFMS’s son) birthday. It’s actually his GOLDEN BIRTHDAY (turning 8 on May 8th). Last night, TFMS and I both came home from business trips. We ate a little snack and then go...

Bang, Bang

Yesterday marked 1-year engagement anniversary. Got in a dumb tiff (not surprised, it’d been well over 2 weeks…we were due). Felt super sexy yesterday…must’ve oozed from my pores. Sex appeal...
