give me strength to try once more

It's been one of those weeks, everyone. A little bit of up. A little bit of down. Last night I had a full on sobbing break down for no apparent reason. I ended up sending Eric a long, sad email about how bad my life sucked at the moment and how much he sucked for being gone so I couldn't rant to him. I apologized for the whole him sucking thing before the end of the email. I felt better after emailing him, though, and a whole lot better after he emailed me back telling me he's doing fine. It's weird to know how worry can creep into your mind and cling somewhere in the back of it and drive you to the point of crazy wondering if someone is okay. I emailed him a happy email today. I promised him before he left I'd email him a lot and have seriously failed on that for the first stretch. I'm going to do better now, though, I've decided. Time to get out of this funky bad/gray mood and back into good friend mode.


Everyone keep VoR in your thoughts today. He's in a place where good thoughts are needed so send them his way. Sidenote: I miss you snookums. :(

I have a date Saturday. Well, does coffee count as a date? I'm sort of excited about this and sort of incredibly nervous. After AA guy, Jesus man and Christmas man, I'm just not so sure if me and dating are meant to be. However, this guy is funny and cute in the geeky way that I dig. Belle said he kind of looks like Eric but I didn't realize any resemblance until she pointed it out. Oh well. Everyone looks like someone, right? I'm going to go and see a movie after the coffee so I guess we'll see how things go and if it's well he might come with. I'll do a followup with this once I know more..which will be Sunday or Monday.

It's day 4 of me actually working out again. I've been coming in before work and getting my workout on. It's going okay. I've lost 5 pounds since Monday. That means my 40 pound goal is down to 35. Before anyone worries, I'm not doing anything crazy and consuming plenty of calories. The weight loss will slow down but it can keep melting off for now. That's fine by me.

Alright, enough for today. How's everyone? Big weekend plans?

Isn't a coffee date always the first date? Good luck!

Good thoughts for VoR.

Yes, send Eric good emails. He likely needs them!

See, I've had such random dates lately I couldn't tell you if that's the way a first date is supposed to go.

I'm hoping my good thoughts help him and that good emails help Eric.

I'm glad I don't have Mr. B.'s email address. I had a bad week and texted him, when I promised myself I never would. It wasn't too bad, it's just that I need to stop contacting him altogether.

I hope Vor's okay.

Yes, definitely let us know how the coffee date goes.

Susan said...

Trust me when I say I fully understand having a bad week, Churlita. I could really get into this last Philadelphia trip and how bad things got but I'm leaving them where they lay. Don't be too hard on yourself. It's so easy to say "I'm never, ever contacting them again" but following through is tough.

Pamela said...

I second that sentiment Susan.

Whoa!!! what the hell happened here? Looks like you grew up! Showing the sexy self in your layout.

LOL

I was waiting for a reaction. That was quite possibly perfect.
