Journaling. Well, I didn't get around to playing last weekend like I told myself I'd do. But it's near the top of "my" to do list so maybe I'll get some quite time this weekend (ha, yeah right).
Chapter _.
Spent last Friday w/ my W and we tried finishing up the last of our gift shopping. My W's energy seemed to be hold throughout the day and we had a good time together. On Sunday our D10 was out w/ my sister, her BF and my dad, while we stayed home. I thought that this would be an oppertunity for some more EC time and maybe some ML. However as the day progressed, it became evident that it would be another SS day together. At one point during the day, as she was making more of the those darn peanut butter cookies, she said that she was going to finish that batch and take a shower (possible keyword to me). I said how about I run you a nice hot bath where you can relax and then we can go ML. To which I got that look again and I wish I knew how to describe it. It's sort or a cross between "hmmm...maybe, we'll see" and "you got to be kidding", smooshed together at the same time. Is it one of those pursual tests that Blackie referred to? I don't know. I'll be first to admit my women-eese is very rusty...
Time past by when she did finally jump into the shower. But by then D10 was due home very shortly and we needed to start dinner. I did ask her why she waited so long to get into the shower. She said that she didn't know if I meant ML right after shower or later that evening. I told her I meant right after shower, just like I said. And added, that both of us would be too tired, as usual, if we waited until later that night.
So, I guess in this instance, the lack-o-nookie is attributed to poor communication. One person saying one thing and the other person hearing another.
