Damn you Hollywood. I actually watched "Crazy, Stupid Love" because it was on HBO and it was late and I wasn't sleeping... yeah, that was it. ;-) Don't want to give spoilers, but there is marriage, separation, infidelity, etc. and of course a dramatic moment/speech where just the right thing is said.... the result was more subtle than usual for a romantic comedy, though. Anyway, it was a surprisingly good movie.
A while back, when discussing my sitch with my mom (but not in such detail as to encourage resentment of W) she said "maybe she wants you to fight for her."
I sent her a couple of MWD's vids on YouTube, and she said "I get it."
It's so hard to compete by not competing. Giving space and time and all of that.
The best thing I can do right now, both for my PMA, GAL, and to look less like a reclusive loser is to get a darn car. Of course, by the time today's back to back meetings are over, I'll just barely have time to get some provisions to last for the next day or so. I need to be able to take an entire day to get into town and get stuff done. Every weekend, like clockwork, there's been something that's left me too exhausted, physically or mentally to get it done.
