Which way to turn?

Karma is wasting time. He's supposed to be going over to Panda's to help her move some furniture outside so it can go to the dump.

I think it's 1. He doesn't want her to move, so he doesn't want to help her. 2. His shoulder hurts so he doesn't want to do anything. 3. He doesn't like the moving of furniture for any reason.

Regardless, he's procrastinating by watching wrestling with me. Good times.

He was successful in the grocery shopping. I guess I should of had some more faith in him.

Looking forward to spending some more time getting to know Cricket this weekend. I think, for the moment, it'll be good to have Karma around. We'll see how we do and go from there. Maybe she and I will be comfortable in spending time alone together at some point.
 
LOL What a night!!

Spent the night IMing with Cricket. Good times of getting to know eachother better and breaking Karma's head. :)

It's been said on here plenty of times, I am a all or nothing kinda person. If I dislike you, I dislike you and move on. If I do like you, well then lets all make plans and be happy.

So going with my post about 2 houses and one common area, I asked Cricket about what she saw in the future. she understandably, didn't know.

She's young and has a lot ahead of her, totaly get that.

So I told her how when all this first came up, Karma and I had a talk where I asked what he wanted. If he could paint his ideal situation, what would it look like.

He said he wanted to come home after changing the world, and find his Shaman and his Fairie waiting for him in the home they made.

So when I brought that up, she said she'd like that, but was nervous about living with a woman.

LOL. I don't do room-mates. Well known fact. I'll kill someone.

But when watching sister wives I was reminded of a friends house. It had a seperate house attached to the main house for her grandma. I always liked that.

They have something similar on sister wives.

So I brought up the idea of two homes, connected with common areas. I think it could work. We both like the idea. One day. In the far future :D.

I'm giddy not crazy.

We also discussed saving up for a trip to Canada, as well as a trip for her to meet the Ohio crew.

I really hope things keep moving forward. I really like where we're headed. It just takes us being real with eachother.

so yeah, broke Karma's head when I told him about that convo.:D:p

Cricket and I covered a lot of bases tonight. I'm feeling good about this weekend and the future.
 
Bad night, misunderstandings led to a panic attack and not much sleep. It got worked out, but been off all day. J/A and D had drama at faire. Bunch of adults acting like two year olds.

Cricket and I got a long with no issues though. I didn't have any pangs of anything. Other than when we walked in J/A had his arm around her. I was a little pissed about that one. You dumped her and now you wanna be all snuggly? But, I decided it wasn't my place, and just because I am not like that with others, doesn't mean she can't be. Karma didn't seem to care, so I let it go and moved on.

They are all at her place for a fire tonight. As much as I love a good fire, I don't like the company and am not in the mind set to deal with J/A all night. So here I am waiting for a migraine to go away so I can get some sleep.

Faire again tomorrow, then movie night with Karma and Cricket. :D
 
I've realized that at almost 30, Karma has absolutely NO ability at telling time.

I no longer believe it is lazyness, absent mindedness, oblivion, or distraction.

He just doesn't know what the little numbers on the clock mean.

That really is the only thing that makes sense.

It's not my fault!!!! The fire didn't want to die, so I had to kill it with the hose.... a lot.

Besides, the damn thing BIT me!!! (Holds up his burnt finger) See?!

In all honesty, Cricket's family is so damn funny when they're drunk that I totally lost track of time, and THEN the fire refused to die.... and then it bit me... :(


EDIT: But I did have a damn fine time. Her mom drank my saki with me, and her dad sampled his new beer with me, and her grandma just made fun of me :)

God night of movies and snoogles.

Karma's brothers g/f lost their baby last night. We are moving our trip home up by a weekend and heading out this week sometime. It's a better weekend for my parents anyway, so I guess it'll work itself out.

I feel terrible for them, He wasn't too excited to be a dad, more scared then anything, but, now he has the loss to deal with just as he was coming to terms with it.:(

Bunch of running around and last minute plans to attend to, and possibly a stop off, on the way.

Looking forward to going home, yet not.
 
Her mom drank my saki with me, )

The last time I drank saki was on a Japanese warship in Tokyo. I was on autopilot for about three hours after saying good-bye to the Japanese Admiral and apparently made a pretty good dance partner later in the evening(although I don't remember).

The last time I drank saki was at a Japanese restaurant in Belfast, N. Ireland circa 1991 at my brother in law's 35 birthday party..."I'm Too Sexy" was playing in the background- hubs was singing it and dancing badly in the foreground. LMAO thinking about that night. A good time was had by all.:D
 
MG-Wow you remember that? Amazing!!

So wow, just wow for today.

Got up and realized the bank was already closed so the check I need to cash has to wait until tomorrow.

Then realized I had a TON of homework I forgot about.

Then found out that the question I posted for my online math class was deleted by the prof b/c someone posted at the same time I did, so I didn't follow directions, BITCH.

So got all my computer homework done, went to take a test and found out the code the school sold me only covers assignments, not exams on the website they use. Tech support got me a new code and all was well.

Went back to the math homework, got the first part done and then had an anxiety attack b/c I have to pass this class and the second half of the homework had to deal with what I don't understand and had posted the question for that she deleted.

Have a math whiz for a friend who helped me through it, got it figured out, anxiety gone and was giddily looking for ideas on decorating cupcakes to look like pumpkins for said math whiz's daughters first b-day.

And my brother calls, spent 20 min on the phone with him and sis in law.

He's my barometer for the rest of the fam. So I asked what he thought of us bringing Cricket home sometime next year, so we say what she is to us, or do we leave it at "friend" as it was with Panda.

Bro was calling in response to that question. They invited Karma and I over for dinner while we're home so they could ask questions and as SIL put it
" Not be stupid and make a decision without facts". They were all worried we'd be upset, but I think it's awesome.

Karma and I have been together 8 yrs, there was a time when he was a close member of the family, and then not so much, and then back and then not so much again. Usualy the yo yo followed an infedility or some other mistake.

The last yr or so, he made a lot of mistakes and not just with women. My parents were really hurt and have had a hard time getting trust back for him. My brother and SIL tend to do the whatever my parents say, even though they don't agee.

So Karma, though wanting to make up for his mistakes, has been pushed aside and not included in the family as much. And he doesn't know how to make it up to them.

Bro and SIL have decided to make their own decision and want to at least bring the four of us back together as siblings. So we are having dinner and talks. They want to understand, and make some preliminary decisions on how to handle things with my niece.

In my opinion, it's easier for a kid to understand if they grow up in it, but I'll leave it for them to decide how we'll aproach it. My niece is such a part of my life I don't want to not share that with Cricket, but I can understand their concerns as parents.

So I guess we'll just have to see what their questions and concerns are and go from there.

Nervous but excited all the same.

Waiting for Karma to get off the phone, then we need to pack and load the car.

Off to Ohio tomorrow with a stop off to meet MorningGlory.:D

Looking forward to meeting her.

And to see my brother and my family.

Much needed trip home and looking forward to it. I just wish I could smoosh Ohio and Maryland closer so the drive didn't take as long.
 
It never fails that Karma is running behind. Hopefuly heading out the door in the next 20 min or so. Then off to meet Morning Glory and then on to Ohio.
 
YOU offered me the damn computer!!! None of your nagging!!! :D

Love you ;)

Hope you got to Ohio in some reasonable time...your fella was looking sleepy. Next time wine...no coffee...I am much chattier with alcohol in me- if you can imagine that! LOL! Hope you enjoyed our brief meeting. Next time it will be in your barrio- Brian Boru's sounds like a good meeting place!
 
Made it safe and sound, pulled in the drive at 3 am. Stopped to wake up over some Mc substance once we crossed into ohio, or it would have been sooner.

Had an awesome time meeting MG. Wanted to get a picture but I, the camera nazi, totaly forgot. Remembered on the highway. :(

Oh well, maybe next time.

Lot's of good talk between Karma and I, I love out drives for that reason, we will talk for hours about stuff that never seems to cross our minds when at home.

Heading to the sleepin' so I can see my niece in the morning.
 
We are all responsible for our own actions. No pulls the strings and makes us do anything. I am so sick of hearing "you made me do this" No NO ONE made anyone do anything. You chose. We always have a choice. We may not like wither option, but we always have a choice.

Just kinda irritated at a bunch of different siuations going on. Why is it that adults simply can't be ADULTS.

Whatever. Had a great time with my family today. My niece has grown so much!! And saying so many things. She's just adorable. I asked her if I could take her with me to Baltimore and she said "Ball!!! Yesh!!!" Too cute!!

I miss my nightly talks with Cricket. Never thought I'd say that!! But I do. It became a routine. I'm sitting here in the quiet house, contemplating going to bed, and thinking that something is off. Something is weird. Cuz I haven't talked to her in a few days.
 
Aww.
I miss you too!

Glad things are going well out there (at least for the most part.) :) Things are still interesting here, as always.
 
Mo & Cricket you guys are too cute. It makes me smile and gives me warm fuzzies to see things are working out so well.
 
I got a small bit of Cricket time, but I'm falling asleep at the computer. So off to bed I go.



SN-thanks we think we're cute too:p
