Journaling----

I learned a couple things last night

#1- I am too old to be out partying like this

#2- I am over the club/bar scene

#3- It is very irritating to be the sober person in a group of drunks


I went with a friend to an outdoor concert last night, and it was a lot of fun. The music was great, the weather was perfect, and I was enjoying myself very much.
I made myself a pact that I wouldn't get drunk and I didn't. I had one drink all night, and then stuck with water.

My friend, on the other hand, proceeded to get wasted and I ended up taking care of him last night.
I didn't get home until 3am, and then the sirens woke me up at 5:30. Needless to say, I'm tired.

It is going to be a long day.

it is not any fun to be the sober one in a pack of drunks!!

Glad you enjoyed the concert until you had to babysit your friend.

hope you can get a nap today!!

Today was a lazy day.
I really didn't do much, met with a friend for coffee and went to the store.

H has "poked" me 3x's on FB,and I ignored them all.
I'll admit, it makes me sad to do it but I know I have to, for me.

I still wish it wouldn't have come down to this.

Gawd, I think I came to the EXACT same realizations this weekend too. And we are the same age. Sigh. Looking forward to hearing your new ideas on GAL.

So much strength not to acknowledge him. That must have been so tough. But its nice that he's reaching out - whatever that means.

Hugs.

H sent me a text last night, probably the first time he has texted me in about 3 weeks. It was storming pretty badly, and he knows I am afraid of storms. I didn't have my phone on, (I was sleeping) so I got them this morning.
The first one said "I hope you are ok, it's only a thunderstorm." and the second one said "I'm sorry for texting you." I don't know WTF that is supposed to mean, the only thing I can think of is I didn't respond to his first text so he assumed I was ignoring him. I don't know for sure though.
I don't want to be a b*tch, so this morning I responded and simply said "I am ok. Thanks for asking." Do you think that was ok or should I not have said anything at all? This whole thing is so confusing. I don't know what the right thing to do is.

IMO, responding to his outreach the way you did was just fine. He was concerned about you, and reached out. Don't read too much into it, but don't simply disregard it either. Baby steps. A tiny glint of light.

Hang in there.

LOL I wish every site had a "like" and "dislike" button.

I don't read any more into it besides him remembering how much I hate storms.
