HI CHL...that's exactly how I took those e-mails. Bit of a peace offering, explanation for some of his "distance" of late.
Quote: Could it be that CJ is just feeling that he's being pulled in all directions right now?
Well, perhaps, but I don't really see it...he left his job in Aug of '02 and hasn't "worked" since. He started this on-line course in July. That's pretty much his main focus, CHL.
The only other concerns are daily stuff..groceries, cleaning, etc. which we mostly share.
His response to my e-mail (in which I also apologized for making him feel like a 'wet blanket' at the party) was...how can I put this...a bit off-putting to me.
For one it was LOOONG...but just filled with actual details of how the whole scenario surrounding our depature went down. (Including direct quotes) He said a few times that he was already over "that" as I'd apologized in the car...but the DETAIL he included...I don't know, I'm confused...
You see one thing that CJ uses against me (he might not agree with this phrasing, but it's how I FEEL) is his rather astonishing memory. It's a bit like a weapon at times. And MY memory is cast as "unreliable" right off the bat in the face of his superiority in this regard...
I'm sure he feels the same way about my journal and other written material as this is MY way of "remembering".
Oh, well, really should be working.
Thanks for dropping in CHL!
Shiny
P.S. Did send another e-mail back to CJ (he's out right now) in which I asked about the smooches in the bathroom at the party...not sure how that's going to turn out, but at least it's out there
