M and I are a mere three weeks into this whole co-habitating thing and so far all is well. Well, except for the first week when he tried to hospitalize me in my sleep! I'm joking, it wasn't that bad, just incredibly annoying. He must have been having a bit of unconcious trouble adjusting for the first week, because he had crazy dreams and did ridiculous things in his sleep that drove me crazy. It started with an elbow to the chin while we were both sound asleep because he was dreaming that there were snakes in the bed. Grrr.... A couple of nights later he sat straight up in bed in the middle of the night and turned the bedside lamp on. (Swear word!) Then, a couple of nights after that he was having another strange dream and I got a ginzu chop to the throat that almost brough tears to my eyes. (Very loud swear words!) But, it appears to have only been that first week, because it has been smooth sailing all through the night ever since. Other than that, it's all been ...

Only five more sleeps until M and I go from living two hours apart and only seeing each other on weekends to co-habitating. Yay and gulp! I'm excited as all heck but also a little bit afraid. This is obviously going to be a very big change for us. M has never lived with a significant other before, and even though I have, I obviously was not very good at it. Here's hoping the third time is a charm! All joking aside though, I think I have learned quite a bit from my failed relationships. I think I am a much different person than I was three or four years ago, hopefully for the better. I always joke that I am a much kinder, gentler Angela than the gal I was in my twenties, but it's more than just a joke; there is considerable truth to that statement. So, this time next week M and I will be living together. Let's hope that after three or four months of dealing with my sarcasm on a daily basis he won't have buried me in the back yard!

So, a week and a half ago, I was in Vegas for work and had just finished the final touches on our trade show booth and had wandered back up to my hotel room to get changed and freshen up before the show started, and I got a call from M on my cell phone. He had been called in for a meeting and was given a promotion with a transfer to the city. Yay!!! His first day is October 30th, so I get to spend the next two weeks attempting to make enough space in my closet for his clothes and cleaning my place up so that we have somewhere to put his stuff. This is not an easy task, let me tell you! It's pretty exciting to know that in just two weeks we'll be living in the same house as opposed to being two hours apart like we have been for the past year. I can't wait!

Why has keeping my blog up to date suddenly become so darn difficult? It seems almost impossible to take the time to sit down and formulate sentences. Don't get me wrong; it's not that I'm that busy. It's just coming up with something to write about that has had me stymied lately. Argh!! Any suggestions?

I was driving home from work this afternoon, pleasantly minding my own business, when this lovely little song by Gwen Stefani came on the radio. It was "Bananas"; I'm sure you all know it. So, driving along, this song comes on, and suddenly, it hits me like a bag of freaking bricks; in less than a week my best friend is leaving the country and will be gone until the new year. Ack!!! I knew she was leaving, but somehow the impact of this managed to escape me. No more phone calls, no more texts, no more heart to hearts on the way to and from soccer, and worst of all, no more drunken escapades and stories to tell.... Holy wow. Dougie, I must say this has suddenly thrown me for a loop in the past hour or so....
