He was cranky earlier (trying not to have caffeine, which makes him a bear), and took a nap.
After he got up he wandered down to the office in a better mood. Saw I was playing WoW and got interested in what I was doing. Spent probably 45 minutes down here with me talking about what I was doing, looking stuff up online, generally being chatty.
Then he went up to work out, came back down for a minute to look at stuff for me again, then headed out to buy a brisket to smoke for tomorrow.
That's also weird. I mentioned that I'd like a smoked brisket, but they didn't have one at Safeway today when he went. He got ribs, and I was fine with that. But then he was like "No, you wanted brisket, I'm going out again to QFC to see if they have one." I told him ribs were fine, but he was insistent.
We chatted a bit about our respective workouts before he left (pilates kills my "trunk" and I was sort of whining), but it was just normal chatty conversation.
He got back with a brisket. We talked in the kitchen about food, and generally joked around - he was way more relaxed and "normal" than usual.
Anyway, now he's upstairs in the living on his laptop, logged into WoW making stuff for me. I guess I can see why he's upstairs - he's cooking dinner on the grill, and it's easier than running up and down the stairs - plus S is in the office and being sort of loud.
Anyway, he's being more "normal" than he's been in weeks. I know this is "typical", and I should regard it as a small step, and expect him to "backslide" because I've read that after any small connection, they pull often pull away.
But I dunno, it's been nice. Any thoughts/insights?
