I have a free afternoon now (D6's appt bumped back, they want to talk to her some more first, waiting for a call) and I found Hope and we are meeting for lunch! Yay!
I told H of my plans (lunch with a friend) and instead of his snippy comments, he looked sad/worried. He bought that huge TV I had mentioned back awhile ago and we were sitting at the desk talking when I told him. I was dying to ask WHY he bought this TV, is it for this house or for his dad's? I didn't. I just let him buy it.
Hope, your text this morning literally made him jump. I had my phone on my hip and he was shocked! lol
Anyway, conversation:
Me: I am going to meet a friend for lunch today.
H: Oh. Ok. You know, you don't ask about OW anymore.
Me: I can't. It hurts me to learn anything new. I just need to stay out of it for now.
H: Well, I haven't seen or talked to her in almost 2 weeks, you know.
Me: Oh. (digesting this while appearing oh so casual). Why may I ask?
H: (shrugs shoulders) I don't know. (silence)
Me: You don't have to talk about it, but thanks for telling me.
H: We can talk later.
????????????????
Off to shower and meet my new friend Hope!! WEEEE!
