Monday. Back at work today after a lovely, lovely weekend.
I didn’t sleep well and had a really hard time waking up this morning. Didn’t do my workout, and I’m pissed at myself for that because I have skipped working out now for a couple of weeks and I thought that I’d make April my month for getting back into decent shape and eating more healthy (after the party, of course!). Yeah, how’s that working out?
Had a weird dream Saturday night and I’ve just been thinking about it. Maybe it was the alcohol or maybe it was the delicious sex or maybe it was because the Bulldog was sleeping in my bed, but it was a dream that I wanted to remember. The general idea was that I was seeing through someone else’s eyes. And they were driving my car somewhere. I figured out where he/she was going, so I followed to a game field where we were supposed to play a team sport with sticks. The sticks were too big, so the leader was breaking them apart. After I got my small section of the broken stick, I woke up.
Not sure what any of that means…should I be looking at my life through someone else’s eyes? Am I playing games? And sticks are phallic symbols according to the dream dictionary. WTF.
So I got an email today from SexyPants. It was simply titled, “Ring.” It was a forwarded email from his insurance guy asking what he wanted to do with the insurance policy on my engagement ring. In the forwarded email he said, “I know this is a little ugh. Just wanted you to know I’m going to cancel the insurance.”
Well. I got to thinking about this, and I got to thinking this: I’m never gonna wear that ring again (even though the diamond is gorgeous and I’ve thought about making it into a necklace). And it’s just sitting in my jewelry chest. It’s collecting dust, basically.
So I was thinking about this: what if I give it back to him to sell. And when he sells it, I want him to give half of the money to a charity that we both love and then he and I split the other half.
I really like that idea, but the problem is…what if he can’t sell it?
So then I’m thinking…well, I could ask him for what I think he might get out of it (1/4th of what I think he might get out of it) upfront?
There’s no easy way to do this. Everyone, and I do mean everyone…tells me I should keep this ring. But I just don’t feel right keeping it but I don’t feel like I should just give it back outright.
Any advice?
Oh. And I have to get a new car. My lease is up. TODAY. Nothing like waiting until the very last second, eh? At least I talked to the dealership. I have a 10-day grace period! But I didn’t know this until this afternoon!
Damn. I can procrastinate. I hope to get my taxes done before midnight on the 15th!
Today was a 6. Eh.
I love you!
