Collision

So! Work is finally boring enough that I feel somewhat comfortable blogging here again. Now to recap the last 2 months of my life. Blehhhh.

On the top of the list is the fact that I never posted about The One's visit, other than some lame drabble about how I was hopeful about things in general. Now, a lady doesn't kiss and tell, and neither do I (ha), but suffice to say that it was 18 hours of joy that I haven't felt in a long time. I was on Cloud 9, or 10, or some exclusive cloud that you hipsters haven't even heard of, and still am every time he calls or texts. The Ring is back on my left hand, I'm not even interested in anyone else... I know I'm putting all my eggs in one basket and risking a LOT of heartbreak, but I've never felt this way about ANYONE and I refuse to be scared.
The voicemail I got a few weeks later is still haunting me a bit - we talked a few days after I posted that entry and he said all the things I was going to say to him about why they're ultimately incompatible and he hasn't been happy in a long time - but she visited him this weekend as her last-ditch attempt to get him back... I'm waiting on his call to reassure me that it's definitely over. So, maybe a little vomit-y.

Lent has begun, and I gave up music on my commute (read: no earbuds) in an attempt to pray more, and more regularly. It's sort of working, but 3-ish weeks in I'm starting to run out of things to say to the Big Guy. So starting today I'm going to ATTEMPT to stop cursing. Basically I'm taking my laundry list of things I regularly go to Confession for (cursing, never praying, etc) and trying not to do them ... seems reasonable, right? We'll see.

After a long, busy winter (which apparently is not over yet, stupid March doesn't realize that it's supposed to be spring now) I am finally taking some time to myself to stay at home and cook my own meals and watch TV shows on the night they air. The One told me before I moved here that "your apartment is just a place to hang your hat," but sometimes I need to spend a few consecutive evenings with my hats. Which means possibly, maybe? more blogging to come in the near future! I really will try. I don't give myself NEARLY enough time for introspection and at least having a few people bugging me about updates motivates me a little bit. Keep it up, nags! ;)

Ok, let's see if I can sneak out of work early...
