Started an entry a week ago. Updated and updated almost every day, but still didnt feel like I had a real entry pulled together, so I just figured Id scrap it and start over from scratch.
I do miss writing entries.
I never got my laptop fixed because Grrrrr is letting me borrow his, but again, I cant write entries on his comp! Perhaps I can figure out a way to post via emailing and then posting through my Treo. How complicated!! Until then, I guess Ill continue posting from the office (dangerous, I know!!).
So. Whats happening in my world? Plenty!
I guess Ill bulletize for ease:
Around the World in 16 Days! Im taking a 16-day business trip starting Wednesday (the 21st). Now, normally taking such a long business trip is one thing (long and tiring). But this is no ordinary trip, and Im going with no ordinary person. Thats rightBoss Party Pants and I are going to Sydney! And then Tokyo!! And then (thankfully), we will break off and I will go to Barcelona and then London before heading back to the good old U S of A. That is, if I survive the Boss Party Pants leg of the trip! Im trying to figure out what kind of drugs I can take with me so that I can keep up with her ultra-fast pace, her heavy-duty drinking, and her general spazzy-ness. Dont get me wrong, I ADORE Boss Party Pants. I LOVE her! We get along famously!! Its just that her energy level is like
well, I dont know what
someone on major amounts of speed or something. I had to send little prayers heavenward every few hours on my last couple of trips
and that was when we just spent a few days together in London or Tokyo. This time, its a whole WEEK of non-stop Party Pants. By the time I get to Barcelona, I might be dead. Ill let you know (if I can figure out how to update)
In Touch With the Ex: Is it wrong to google your ExBF and when you find the website hes created for his new business, to actually send an email through the contact us email link? If so, then I am absolutely wrong, wrong, WRONG!! I kept the note very short and breezy and polite in case there were other people reading, but Id be lying if I said my hands werent shaking and my heart wasnt racing when I actually hit the send button. But when the reply came a few days later, I think I actually broke into a sweat! AND, to top it off, the reply came from a different email address (one that his wife cant access), so as to not ruffle any spousal feathers. Why did I do it? Curiosity, mostly. See, Id found his website a few years ago, and thought about contacting him, but just figured that I should let the whole thing go. But lately Ive been kind of struggling with some thoughts about relationships (mine, Grrrrrs past, our possible future together, the probability of starting a family, etc. etc.), and I dont know. I just felt like getting in touch with my past. Plus, when I went on his website, I noticed that it was all in French. Which could only mean that he had gone back to France, where he had been living for several years.
He replied.
Sure enough, he had moved to France about a year ago, taking his French wife back to her homeland and introducing their 3 young children to French living. He wrote a nice note, nothing sugary-sweet, just the facts. He wrote about old friends of ours hed been in contact with and he also told me that hed looked me up too, and found some article quotes online, but couldnt find an email address. He sent a photo of his family (wife, twin girls, and a boythe spitting image of him). I dont know how I feel about knowing all of this. Im still processing it. But in the meantime, he also got me back in touch with another mutual friend of ours, and Im really happy about that.
Uh oh
its time to get out of here. Its FRIDAY, and I have a boyfriend to love on!!
So Ill just leave my bullets as a reminder for another entry I need to write:
The Friendship Ring!
The LDL email
The Upcoming Meeting
And MORE
!
