Have you ever had that moment? Where someone totally called you out on your bullshit? And you realized they were the one? Even though you'd been together for four years, you were still unsure and suspicious and never fully trusted them, but then...they totally have your number.
I hate that, too. Why do you not recognize me as the perfect goddess I am; why do you point out my weaknesses? Because, ideally, I have none.
And you love me anyway. Damn you, Rottenator.
Meanwhile, I went to DragonCon and all I got was this single lousy picture:
And this, I didn't even take it; it is courtesy of my sister, who illegally snuck a pic (allegedly) when Spike was not paying attention.
So, this is my only pic, and as you can tell by the date on my sister's blog, it may be a while before I have anymore, but trust that fun was had by all.
In fact, we had a really good time even though the crowds were maddening. I forgot how much I hated crowds, even if they were all sci-fi geeks, and very polite, I'm just old and can't do it anymore. I was near panic attack mode, but it all ended up well thanks to one of my college friends who showed us around because he is an expert at these things.
I'm not saying I'd do this again, even though it was kind of funny; the Rottenator would have hated the crowds but Alabama was playing their opening season game the same weekend in Atlanta so there was an immersion of my two worlds; nothing made me happier than watching Alabama football fans clapping at Daleks. Just sayin'...
Oh, did I mention that I passed my work test so now I have semi job security? What what?!?!? Yes, this is a huge relief; I've actually mellowed out a little bit about life whereas the Rottenator has gotten more intense. I was hoping that college football season would ease some of his depression, but not so much so far...maybe when they beat Texas A&M he'll feel better. Plus, he's turning 30 this year which can't be easy; I vaguely remember it myself...although 40 was harder than 30...and now every birthday is just another excuse to eat cake and ice cream and possibly get some flowers.
Getting old is weird. Mood Ring(tone) Of The Day:
*Incidentally, this is the song that my sister and brother in law walked down the isle to when they got married...because they are fabulous...

The one on the right, we love him! |

Spike! You saw Spike. In the flesh. I should hate you. But I'll drool over the photo instead.
ReplyDeleteWhy on earth can't you take pictures? That is stupid.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations for passing your work test.
ReplyDelete... and sorry I don't know what DragonCon is, but I hate crowds too. Does that make me old as well? Or just boring? Or both?
Congrats on passing the test! Spike who?
