just doing some reflecting on my 300 mile pickup. It was kind of surreal seeing the s for the first time in 10 months. Without putting too much effort into this, I am somewhat curious why she asked her best friend(female) to take the drive with her. When I pulled into the drop off point, I immediately spotted them both, two good looking blonds with a good looking dog will catch your eye. I pulled up and gave her a hug and kiss, didnt even wait to see if her body language showed her to be comfortable or uncomfortable. Her friend lingered in the background, and said she was just along for the ride, and didnt want to interfere.
Again, we talked for about 10-15 minutes about the dog and caretaking items. I walked over to her friend and gave her a hug and told them both thanks for meeting me and told her how much I appreciated her lending him to me for a month. Then I hugged her again, said goodbye, and we both got in our cars and drove away, her to OHIO, me to New Jersey.
Observations: She looked pretty good, but in a way, harder. Her face seemed to be a bit more lined, and her voice a bit more husky. I got the impression she has changed her lifestyle quite a bit, possibly back to smoking, more drinking, and the biggest change, no working out or running. The last point is the most telling, because we are both avid runners, and having completed a number of marathons and competitions, running had become firmly etched in our lifestyles.
Can't help thinking back to what she said to me last june when she dropped the bomb. She said she had lost herself. So, I wonder, is the non-running sp the real sp, or has she made it a point to do everything possible to erase the past, including giving up running. For any former WAW out there, or anyone else, any thoughts here?
I am not getting wrapped around the axle here thinking about this stuff, in general, I feel like I have done a good job in detching, but I would be lying if I said I wasnt curious.
Thanks for listening all, any comments/thoughts are appreciated!
