Yeah, the iphone and BB not so good for checking in.
I had a college friend visiting this weekend. Just a coincidence that she was relatively close. It was so great to be with someone who knew X and me from the very start, and process with her.
(and in the incestuous world of theatre majors, she slept with X, too, so she had some insights!)
She did have some great insights with the bits she had seen with X all those years ago, and the way she had seen my interactions with him over the years. Not necessarily the nicest insights to hear, but sooo necessary.
And then she helped me go on FB and make the big announcement to all the college friends. That was about the last big hurdle, I think and hope. (other than seeing their wedding announcement in the paper some day! bleh!)
I'm very lucky to have my town and community. Lots of town interactions as I brought my friend around and showed off the town and friends.
I may have made some good progress this weekend.
But remember--I MUST do the work. I can't just get past the stomach upset, and forget the pain, and merrily go back to the tequila. (metaphorically speaking)
