It's been a long time, we shouldn't of left you, without a dope beat to step to!

 ADHD Fast Thoughts


So it's been a minute since I have blogged and I have had amazing days.  Lots of them. Way more than I have had in a while.


But of course, there's still the little things.   

1st thing I am proud of - Feb 14 was 27 years ago that Mark moved up here.  I barely thought about him that day.  I got to see some amazing people and made sure everyone felt the love!


2 - I have the FEELS!  They are getting serious and I am fighting my brain hardcore to make sure it doesn't fuck things up! 



3 - I had a 3rd hang-out with a man that I am very worried about.  It reminded me of back when I was so intertwined with Mark.  Even when things were good things were always one move away from being horrible!  (It happened A LOT)  Things would be so very fun then I would say one thing ask one question, and then I had an angry person and I had to try to figure out how to fix it.


Over the years I learned to just walk way and let him be his grumpy ass self.

I hope this man figures his life and happiness out.  He can't see it.


More rapid-fire thoughts

I want to get more comfortable with kissing (Boys really like kissing) it just makes me so nervous sometimes.

I want to get an apartment.

Alone even when I wasn't - Nesting Partner

So last night I was sick (I’ve been sick a few nights, actually). It was sad, 'cause I was missing out on the fun. Missing seeing my people. Just in pain. I cried, lamenting how I miss that 23-year marriage thing—that meant there was a person here when I felt like this. A person living with me, so I wasn’t alone. At least when Mark was here, I wasn’t alone when I was feeling like this… Then my memory smacked me in the head and said, “What the fuck are you talking about??!?!” When you were sick, you often hid it so he wouldn’t get mad at you for being overly dramatic. When you were sick and couldn’t hide it, you got a guilt trip for not roleplaying or hanging out—you abandoned him, alone in your sickness, in the bed, while he was in the same room… but not with you. When you were sick, you canceled future plans to make up for the ones you missed with him—even though those plans were literally just sitting in your house, together. You didn’t get loved or pampered when you were sick. E...

Todays the day

Today’s the day he walked out the door and never came back. Two years ago, Erica had a very interesting day. So what happened? Well, I asked him for a divorce. He said no. I told him I wanted to see other people, explore polyamory, learn more about myself and what I really needed. He asked me to give him time and to not date yet. I said okay—because I was a coward. That part's a longer story. For 12 weeks, we lived in a strange, stressful limbo. That could be its own story. He was at his best during those weeks. The kindest, calmest version of himself I’d ever seen. Maybe he sensed the end. We talked a lot. I told him about the ways he had hurt me, how scared I was of him sometimes, and how scared his kids were too. Then spring break came. We had a decent week. We even went and got a puppy—almost like we were celebrating that he was trying to be good to another living thing. But after the break, we argued. We argued because I told him I was never going to be monogamous again. We ar...

traffic light

Tonight, a simple traffic light brought back a wave of fear I thought I had left behind. I remembered the terrifying feeling of trying to drive my husband to the doctor—how every turn, every lane choice, felt like a test I couldn’t afford to fail. Even something as small as picking the wrong lane would send panic crashing through my chest, because I knew a mistake like that would trigger his anger. He didn’t need to yell right away; the tension, the heavy silence, the way his presence filled the car with pressure—it was enough to make me feel like I couldn’t breathe. That memory still lives in my body, in my heartbeat, in the way I flinch at moments that should be harmless.
