actually - I just do the whole arguement

I don't know why you are going this way, it is the harder way. ,I would do it different. you just felt like it and Im not driving so I'll be quiet now

Me: starts to open mouth, thinks better of it

Him: I know, I don't know why I always go this way.

Much faster.

Such a healthy sign.

Seriously though, which would you think is easier? Heading south, then west or east then north then south then west. IT MAKES NOT WITH THE SENSE MAKING!

Joe would have his boys night out when he gamed. But now, because of Em, and because I work Saturdays, they game here. I very rarely take a girl's night. But then, I never really did.

Honestly, on my first time over for "gaming with the boys" on Saturdays, I had just as much fun hanging with you afterwards as I did gaming. Maybe more.

And coming up from O.C. to game with Joe and the boys is a good excuse to hang out with da Punk and you!

Recently, Fela did the cutest thing that helped me to see the progress we've made in communicating things like this.

He sometimes blathers...can't seem to stop his mouth from making the most obvious (which sometimes comes off as not!smart or even insulting) sounds.

A while back, we saw Mirrormask...in one scene a character is trying to pass off a common object as a magic charm. The other character says "That's a half a brick, isn't it?" Um. No. "Yes, yes it is. That's a half a brick...isn't it."

I used that phrase on Fela a couple of times when he seemed to be making things up to fill airspace when he didn't know what to say. I stopped because the 'teasing' was pretty condescending.

The other day, he started down the blather trail, but after about 30 seconds of me not bothering to challenge him he paused and said, "Wait. That was totally a half a brick."

I had to kiss him for the self awareness of it.

The moral? He shifted because he shifted...not because I poked him. That felt really good to me.

It just read like a question of being over needy- being called overly needy can make you sensitive to that.

I do apologize.

I apologize for my end of the misunderstanding, too. I didn't mean to make you feel worse.

Flirty McFliterstein. :)

It's cool, not your fault. I'm just touchy.

BTW- Thanks to Aimee, for very kindly pointing out that being on a hair trigger is probably not the best time to parse other people's words for meaning.

Thank my therapist. I do every time I write her a check.
