The movie quote that got to me.

[Ophelia]

I also miss the things that she did that bugged,

I miss seeing his dirty underwear lying on the bedroom floor. He'd never bother to actually put it in the clothes basket. I used to hate seeing it and having to pick it up, but now I actually miss it! How twisted is that?!

I've gotta rent that movie...

It's not an Oscar winner or anything, but I found it refreshing because it was about a middle aged guy who felt there was something missing in his life, and instead of screwing around, he just took dance lessons instead, and despite the fact one of his dance teachers was the rather enticing J-Lo, he still remained faithful to his W, and the whole thing had a happy ending.

You know I thought about this the other day.
I had a HUGE cockroach problem at work. I mean this cockroach that I caught under a cup on my desk had 30 babies while under that cup. Luckily, the pest control man came and saved me.
And, as funny, and utterly disgusting as it was...I had no one to share that with. I couldn't call h and tell him what just happened. And, I thought to myself...I don't have anyone to share this with. It wasn't a big deal. It was just a little funny peice of my day, that doesn't matter...but I couldn't share it with anyong either. I felt very lonely just then.

So, now I've shared with you guys...

Eeeewwww! That is so gross! I don't usually get cockroaches in the house, but tonight there was a big one in the kitchen, so I sprayed it and stuck a cup over it so it couldn't run away, and now after reading your little story, I'm too scared to go and lift that cup up again!

Something else I miss....I was hanging Christmas decorations the other day. First of all, when I was standing on a chair, then getting up onto a table to reach high enough, I thought, "Too bad if I fall and there's no one here to catch me. I could break my neck!" Then I thought, "I could really do with someone else being here who could tell me if I'm hanging this straight so I won't have to get up and down three times before I get it right." And now that all the decorations are hung up all over the house, I think, "So what, it's not like there's anyone here to see it all except me and the cat."

Mind you, if all goes according to plan, H will see it because he might actually be coming over next Monday, which will be the first time I've actually seen him since last Christmas Eve, (blurb about it in my thread, just click the link in my sig if you're interested).
