My oldest decided to drive in from St. Louis last night, arriving this morning. Here is the gist of our conversation since then.
Daughter (last night): “Mom asked whose couch I’m going to be sleeping on.” (she wasn’t welcome to stay with them when she was here a month ago)
Me this morning, as she said she was close to arriving: “You can have full access to my...

I hate when sitcoms use my life for their scripts.
It’s not only depressing as shit, but the laugh track makes it that much more painful.

Not a good night
Finally went to sleep about 1, and then woke up pretty much every hour, until I finally just gave up at 4:30. When I actually was asleep, I had vividly detailed dreams of the end of the world. So now I’m awake for good, with a headache and a lingering sense of doom…and feeling mortally alone.

Day 25: Merry Christmas! What were some of your gifts?
Well, as I mentioned before, CG topped the list again this year with Lorenzo Llama. My brother was predictable with a gift card from Sears, and my sister bought me a cool NASA shirt and a juvenile book…Alfred Hitchcock presents The Three Investigators #2: The Mystery of the Stuttering Parrot. She...

Llamas at Christmas?
Why not? This first image is just a fun Christmas image.
This second image (forgive the quality) is, once again, the best gift I received this Christmas. Of course it is from CG…no surprise there! His name? Lorenzo Llama.

Day 23: Amount of money spent this year
I’m not going to go into real figures, but I calculate that, by the time I’m actually done spending (nope, I’m not done yet), I will have spent about half of what I normally spend. The number is still somewhat embarrassing, and this year a little painful even, but this year more than ever, some of these...

Day 22: Somewhere you would want to spend Christmas one year
I have spent Christmas in various places; New Mexico (where my sister lives), Disney World, Myrtle Beach. When my sister lived in Nashville, my family and I spent every Christmas there. So honestly, nothing comes to mind in terms of location. I considered a trip to New Mexico again this year, but that...

Day 21: Favorite Christmas movie
I would have to say A Christmas Story is probably my favorite movie. I’m not really sure why, and I haven’t seen it in years, but when I think Christmas movie, that is the one that comes to mind.

Miss one day...
And it takes me 120 pages to catch up on my tumblr. Whew…
So, concerning my last post: I never was able to really sleep Monday night, so my 700 mile drive (there and back again), coupled with literally hours watching a computer copy files, coupled with my dad and I not saying more than 50 words to each other in the 6 1/2 hours I was there…
That makes for a truly introspective...

I'm supposed to be on the road in 5 hours.
I don’t feel like I’m anywhere close to sleep right now. It’s been a good day, but my mind won’t shut off. Too many things to think about.
But I need sleep, so I’ll try again. Goodnight, all.

There was a posted photo of a cat a few minutes...
My kitten Bob saw it and kept pawing at the screen, trying to get some sort of response from the cat. He was very confused when I scrolled to the next post, and then I think he got mad at me for taking the cat away, because he hasn’t come back to sit with me since.

Day 20: All time favorite Christmas present
This one is easy for me. Last year, when CG and I were still just friends, but at the same time closer than most, I went over to her apartment one evening. When I arrived, there was a wrapped gift sitting outside her door. I knocked on the door and got no answer. I knocked again, thinking that odd, as she was expecting...

I am broken.
I’m getting ready to break up with my best friend, confidant and significant other, because she can’t do it on her own. I don’t want to…I have never loved anyone so much in my life, and for the past almost year, every view of my future included her.
Unfortunately, ours has always been a complicated relationship, and the complications have become too difficult for her to...
While I'm at it...
It’s been a very difficult last few days, and it isn’t over yet. Currently I am a little bit tired and a whole lot of depressed. A nap will help the tired, but nothing is going to help the depression.
And I know it is going to get much worse soon.

Day 19: Hardest person to buy for this year
I’m not even close to completing my shopping, but it’s all done in my head. The hardest person this year is CG, mainly because I can’t buy her everything I want to get her. That inability makes it difficult to decide *what else* to get her.

There is only one thing better than going to sleep...
And that is waking up with her the next morning.
However, CG has gone semi-nocturnal this weekend, so I’m up and she just went to bed. But what little time we did sleep together made me happy, so I’ll take that.
Here’s to all my tumblrites having a wonderful day today!

I find it far too easy to be a complete asshole...
It always seems to be to the one person I love most in this world as well.
And I hate myself for being that way.
Sorry never comes close to fixing the problem or mending the hurt, and after a while just becomes meaningless.
You’ve asked me to wait, so can I ask you to wait on me too, and please be patient as I work through this?

Day 18: Favorite Starbucks holiday treat
I’ve never been in a Starbucks in my life, so I can’t answer this one. I don’t drink coffee, so I have never seen the need to go to Starbucks.
Also, I don’t do holiday drinks of any kind, so this one will remain unanswered.
