Even with pinkeye

After a very nasty fight last weekend, Steve and I seemed to have reached a common ground. An understanding.

It's like all the things we've been wanting to say were finally said and we respected each other more in the aftermath. I told him how cold and callus he can be, he told me what a psycho bitch I am sometimes. Things we both already knew, but were glad to finally hear the other say.

The make-up sex lasted for two days and was incredible. Like both of our walls were finally, completely down. I can say I have never felt this way about him before. I knew things were different when I went to work the next day and got one of those cool flashbacks you only get after great sex. You know, those little pictures that flash in your mind from the night before. I never had a flashback with him before. Even now the thoughts make me smile.

In retrospect, I guess I should have know better than to start a fight before Mother's Day. Always a bad day for Steve. I really wish he would just talk to her and tell her exactly how he feels about the things she did. He says it's pointless. I think a weight would be lifted, but it's not my place to make things happen between them--thought I with I could.

But anyway, things have been very good this week. I found my favorite jeans--neatly folded in the drawer where I keep my T-shirts, how they got there I do not know. We got a cable modem this week too. So now blogging, surfing, and the like is a pleasure rather than a pain. Steve's little project is going smashingly--6 girls ,2 boys, and one hermaphrodite. Sweet.

I have a cold now, and pinkeye in both eyes but I'm still happy. I think the last time I had pinkeye I was in the 6th grade. I got it form one of my homies who brought her eyedrops to school. Nosy me wanted to look at them. I didn't stop to think how contagious they might be.
This time I'm not sure how I got it. Good news is, they sell pinkeye treatments over the counter now, so I saved a trip to the Dr., and shelling out bucks for visits and prescriptions.

It's so nice to have peace at home now.
