I'm having the most insane and horrific day here at work and have barely had time to hit the bathroom. Which is why I've not been able to do anything today. But since I'm now frustrated enough to rebel against authority (um, that would be myself), I'm here for a few minutes anyway.
Mr. Wonderful is back to his usual jovial and joking self. We had a most hilarious chat earlier, when I got to tell him all about D10 and her desire to grow up. He told me he's really glad he's not the mom.
Nor was he surprised to hear of the sitter's dismay at D7's latest antics.
We also had a couple fun chats yesterday as well. We were discussing the constant barrage of drama that seems to follow us around. I asked him, "Well, our whole lives have been nail biters. Can you remember a time when they weren't this way?"
He gave a gut busting laugh and said, "Yeah, actually I do. 1989. That was our best year ever!"
It was also the year we were dating/engaged, having lots of fun and without any responsibility. I laughed aloud as well and commented, "Well, gee, not much has changed since then, has it????"
Nahhh... not much......
Slowly, not to bring Mr. E. into this fray (because this is not about him, and I think he would be MOST uncomfortable with me discussing our progressing friendship and anything else that might be progressing here online)... but yes, the simplicity of just enjoying the wonderful aspects of human interaction is a lovely thing.
I appreciate his patience and friendship as they are truly gifts. Hey, everyone in my office is thrilled about this new turn of events. I have them cheering for me in the warehouse at the end of the day...
Now if I could only get him to like Bon Jovi, D10 and I would sigh relief....
