What's that like?
One of my co-workers was leaving early today. I looked at my watch in a joking manner, mostly because I don’t wear a watch, so I was really just looking at my arm. Ha. Yes, I’m a riot. He said, “I’m leaving early for a romantic weekend with the wife.” Aww. That’s sweet. I felt myself make a face, and I think I actually said, “I hate you” or some such thing out loud, I’m not certain.
Anyone care to take this bitterness off my hands? It could use a good home.
The thing is…Evan and I have barely seen each other in the last few weeks, and I’ve discovered that I don’t much care for that. I didn’t realize how accustomed I had gotten to seeing him practically 24/7 when I was working at home. I just took it for granted that he was there, all the time. Now that I don’t see him much it makes me sad. I work all week, he works on the weekends. By the time I get home in the evenings, it’s time to get dinner and then I’m off to bed fairly early so I can rise for my next working day. The only time I see him on the weekends is when we’re in the car on the way to or from a show, and then we’re both too tired or too rushed to really do anything. We managed to have a nice dinner last week sometime, I can’t even remember what day it was now. Maybe Saturday? I don’t know. I suppose it could be worse, and at some point, we’ll no doubt welcome some time away from each other. But right now, I miss my Evan time. But a weekend getaway? Forget about it. I would love it, but logistically, I don’t know how we could pull it off. Maybe we’ll look into it soon.

You and your hubby have a good thing. I would be jealous. I can't get past the first week without hating anyone. As a matter of fact if it's not making me a sandwich or showing me its tits, I really don't have a use for it. I'm glad that you still write here. I would miss you.
Aww, thanks Tom. FYI, we're not married. We are currently living in sin, with a shared cell phone plan and a joint bank account. Might as well be married.
And it creeps me out just the slightest bit that you refer to women as 'its'.
in re: your coworker
Keep in mind that many gay couples will refer to each other as husband and wife, so he still could be gay.
lol!
No, she really is female, she came to the office yesterday to drop something off for him. Very sweet lady.
