Kinda. My SO is leaving for London in 2 weeks to finish her MBA. She'll be
gone for 6 months. That means every weekend for the last three months has
been taken up doing things _together_, as well as 3 nights a week. Yes,
I'm feeling a little stifled. And I _would_ like to get my Midget running,
which is impossible if I don't work on it. And then when I complain I have
things to do I get responses like: "But I just want to spend time with you
before I go. That's fair, isn't it?" What can I say, "No?" Not happening
folks. So all I can do it bitch to you people, like this.
And I have two friends in the process of being engaged and I see exactly
what they are going through with the SOs. Similar stuff. Both fellas are
going to be poor as dirt until they pay off the weddings the wives-to-be are
planning. My friend Neil has been quoted as saying, "If I see one God Damn
more wedding invitation style, I'm going to shoot her, and commit myself
to a mental hospital. I wish she'd just pick a f%^%$ng card and send it."
Scary stuff....
In case you haven't noticed, I'm NOT ready to be married or living with
someone. I think it's an only child thing. I need my space. I hope my
better part isn't subscribed.....
Michael
BTW: Adrian, didn't you announce you popped the question and she conceded
last month?
