so glad you guys had fun last night! I think Hope is the female Swashy, and needs to come to memphis in may, too. Scott is going...hmmm....could make for an interesting meeting. hee.
I mean it, btw lwb, I am going. am starting to look into hotel info.
good for you for letting your H feel what he needs to feel. you really do a great job instinctively. its like you know what needs to be done. again, you rock.
try kitty litter for the phone. I've heard it works for other electronics.

LWB, Sounds like you and Hope had a great time. I'm glad you were able to get out and enjoy yourself and leave all of the craziness at home. Interesting that your H was crying when you got home. I'm glad to hear that he is the one shedding the tears now, sorry I just can't feel any sympathy for him. He has put you through so much. Ironic that you are the strong one and he's the weak one. There is Karma after all! You go girl, you are my hero!

Hope shows me that not only will things be ok, but they will be good. Thanks Hope!
Thanks yoyo. Even you have to admit, its hard to watch our H's go through these hard times, and KNOW we can't do a thing to help them. He has put me through so much, you are right about that. But I am right there, still loving and missing him. Just not able to show it to him right now.
LWB, You are right we do feel for them. I understand why you feel that way because you just can't turn your love off for him just like the rest of us can't. But I can talk about you H and be mad at him, just like you can be mad at mine!
Funny how we get mad when someone does something to our friends and we hate them, but let our spouse do something like this to us and we can't hate them. Oh this crazy little thing called love...
I'm sure if were all outsiders looking in on all our situations and had never gone through this, we would all say kick him to the curb! Funny how our thinking changes when it happens to us. I'm sure people think I'm absolutely insane for riding this rollercoaster for 15 months. I'll admit the ride is starting to get very old.

Woah, there! May I inquire what this Memphis in May thing is about? (Without sounding like I'm trying to horn in on this -- which maybe I might. LOL.)
not horning in at all! there is a db meet there. here is the link to it. apparently it was a very, very good time last year. I wasn't around then, so didn't go, but definitely looking forward to going this year!

I assume (read:hope) you guys are targeting the Beale Street Music Fest then, right?
Wow, it's been longer ago than my last visit to New Orleans (and their Jazz Fest) that I've been to Memphis in May. (Used to live in Mississippi, and almost took a job in Memphis back in '92.)
I'll have to give this some serious consideration. My brother and I (he lives in Little Rock) have toyed with taking the tour of the Gibson Custom (guitar) factory there some day.
