Ahhh, technology

Well, we’ve done it. We turned into one of those couples. We sat for 4 hours while I worked on Everythingfitness.com and chatted on IM. I had my webcam on and she her microphone. I just have to get an iSight and we’ll never have to interact in person again.

I’m a FREE MAN!

Yesterday was my last day of work at the theatre. The drive home felt so good. I feel liberated. The pressure is gone. Now I am a one-job man. I can have weekday nights and weekends off. No more working until 2 am. My key chain is half the size. It just feels so good. I’m a Free Man!

I have started a flickr.com account and apparently this is cool. This is kind of a test thing, but if all goes right, you will be reading this and it will have worked. I have emailed this post from my email. Which is cool. Ok. So my post. (it didn’t work by the way. But here is my post anyway.)

Saturday was an interesting day. Holly and I had an interesting day. We did a great amount of bonding. It started with me being shlumpy about past/recent events that were unpleasant. To try to overcome this, Holly and Gavin and I hopped into the car to go to the mall. At first it didn’t seem to help. Holly and I got into a hard discussion on said events. By the time we got to the mall we had both said things that hurt and at the same time seemed to help us both understand things a little better from each others points of view. We went in feeling upset. This faded fairly quickly. We understand each other. I love how are “fights” are not fights and that they are constructive and do not include swearing and yelling. Anyway. We went into the mall with the intent of buying Holly a new dress for some upcoming events. And surprisingly we found one quickly. She tried on a few different dresses and outfits and finally came out of the dressing room saying, “This one is beautiful”. So she purchased it. Then we went for some food and headed home. The next half of the day was spent at “Burns Night”. A wonderful event we go to every year and dance and dress up and eat haggis and drink scotch. Mmmm.

It was a good evening. And somehow Holly and I got back on to the conversation about those past/recent events. And all I can say is “small detail”. Things are much better. We had a good dinner. Although my scotch kept disappearing. Every time I would charge my glass for a toast, it would disappear before I had a chance to toast. As it turns out Holly was drinking them. Needless to say she had more than she thought (and I think more than I know of), and discovered that no matter what happens, I will always be there for her. Even if it is to hold her hair back. I love that woman.

Trouble focusing

I have been unable to focus on things lately. I have had many things on my mind. A week from today is my last day of work at the theatre. They have been pressuring me to continue work with them. I have quite a few deadlines for my other job now. Mary has started her classes and what not. Holly works from 7 – 4 on weekdays. We have not seen each other a whole lot these past 2 weeks or so. Hence have not been all that intimate. I’m hoping that once the theatre is over, things will be a bit better. I have also been thinking a lot about an event that happened earlier this month. Can’t help it. It all is adding up and making it hard to focus. Our car battery died the other day and we thought it was an alternator problem. Fortunately it was only the battery. Last night things kind of got to me a bit and instead of thoroughly enjoying dance class, I got very shlumpy. Holly tried to cheer me up by buying me a bag of health food store cheese doodles. I ate the whole bag. What really made me happier though, was making eyes at my wife during class and watching Gavin play around the room. I really love those 2 people.
