How long have you been collecting teacups, sj? Why did you start?
I have been collecting teacups for a while, since just before I went to England for the first time in 1998. I started collecting them when I became totally obsessed with tea and afternoon tea traditions. I was packing some of them last night, and I have way too many.

You have too many minus one.

Yes, and I refuse to pack that one up until the day I move. It is just too pretty.
Boy, if Hubby started in on the "I'm going to weigh less than you-ou" thing, he'd be an ex-Hubby.
This
ornament
is the same pattern as the teacup he got me.

Connie, just so you know, in the above sentence I read "ex" as "no longer living due to violence" vs. "legally separated."
They now occur four to five times a year. I wake up, quite literally, screaming. It's become a ritual. Nic pats me on the arm, sleepily says "All the men you've loved loved you back, especially me" and waits for me to fall back asleep.
Fucking abandonment dreams. Horrible.
Oh brr. I just had one of those last week. I despise them.
Also, having seen sj with her boy, I have to say that he is
totally
into her in that "I will move with your family and look at you adoringly in the process" kind of way.

There was another interpretation?
(I'm now picturing connie channelling John Cleese - "This... is an EX-Hubby! He's bleedin' demised!")

It didn't occur to me that there was another reading besides "no longer living" until I saw this.
I can't see sj's pattern.
I dreamed last night that I went with Nick to meet his dad, dumped Greg and went back to Nick's dad, and woke up feeling like a total jerk for dumping Greg, and couldn't shake it even though he was right there. Also, Nick's dad owned a fetish bar. It wasn't even a club, just a bar.
Then I rushed around, got ready, went to PT, to find out that my appt. isn't until Monday and felt like an idiot when they asked me why I was there. Got back home and the babies were total pains in the ass, Greg had to go to work and won't be home until 10ish, and I can't focus on the work I need to do. I just want to go back to bed.
Man, I'm fun today.
