New Year (same shit - Kinda) - 3:30 AM and here I am

(EDIT: My life actually IS different - I am not dealing with the EXACT same shit - but there are still things I'd rather not deal with - read on....)


Actually our New Year celebration was very nice. We went to an open bar, decent dinner, DJ & dancing, champagne toast and continental breakfast at our local parish social hall and met another nice couple - hopefully we will get to see them again. We then went to a nice hotel (which has a lovely Victorian feel to it), where we rang in the New Year intimately. I was so surprised, Erin had gone there earlier in the day to check us in and he had set the room up...there were tulips in a vase, more champagne, fresh coffee for in the morning and a note from my wonderful hubby waiting for me...

I love you Erin.

Just got back from being out with my siblings and with my love seeing a great local blues Band ( Colin Dussault's Blues Project ). I have been going to see Colin off and on since the early 90s...his act has changed quite a bit and evolved over the years (for instance, I never thought I'd hear him play Led Zeppelin or Reggae) - but he still smokes it on his harmonica and his band is tight - We Love You Colin!

Ready to kill some people - and figure out a way to hide the bodies...but seriously...the people who thought 'No child left behind' was a good idea...mothers who can't seem to figure out how to discipline themselves let alone their children...and the institution of divorce...yes that's right I said institution of divorce. I have never in my entire life felt more like 'Molly in the Middle' than I have of late...

Yeah. Remember (if you are old enough) that stupid musical thingy called 'Up with People' - well I think it's time for 'Down with People' - hell let's go to the extreme here and simply bring back the Coliseum and instead of 'Christians' we'll just throw idiots to the lions...



I had the day from hell (just during the day) - the job took a weird turn and after this morning's rough start I just didn't feel like dealing with the shit....still don't but we'll see - the idea of just leaving it all behind to live in the wilderness is sounding so good...

WHAT.THE.FUCK. is up with bimbo-bleach-blond-botox-injecting-nip-tuck-queens who think that because they are all that, while cavorting around with a man who looks old enough to be their grandfather, simply because he obviously paid for such accoutrements, drives a corvette or some such shit, but is still bald and his penis is still small - why do they think it is OK to be so rude - does 'fake' beauty now buy you a get out of jail free card on the rudeness front? I am somehow getting too old and too impatient for people

****************

Anyhow...

Meanwhile my cat 'Spud' sits here contemplating the existentialism of meat....

So it's almost 4AM (Do you know where your children are? Sorry wrong conversation...)- and back in the day I used to be up like this writing - more like lamenting my lot in life - what's really changed? Well most evenings I have an incredible husband to snuggle with, and really even though there is crap going on in my life that I wish were not happening I am still blessed, madly in love, and hopeful for the future and I could not say that way back when...I knew there was always light at the end of the tunnel - but the darkness seems so pervasive....

Did I say I love you Erin?

I am off to bed soon...and it's been snowing wOOt and I can not wait to go play in the snow.

For the readership: just to clarify, we did not take the new couple back to the hotel with us (or to any other place for that matter).

I had to prepare the room for our arrival, so I checked in early. I love the little surprises I do for you. They make me feel good, but more importantly, I cherish the smiles that I got from you when you are surprised. It's those kind of smiles that take me back to the day you gave my your phone number, and sitting in the coffee shop on our first date.

I love you Colleen. Happy New Year.
