One of my roommates' best friends just got married, and they did not live together beforehand, and apparently is having some of the same issue, sj--she is like "I don't know how to get alone time! We live together! This is making me crazy!" (Poor thing is also new to a city she's not fond of, they were on the phone for a long time last night)
It is one of the advantages of being unable to work, but every once in a while I do have the urge to go on a vacation all by myself for a few days, and then I feel incredibly guilty for having that thought.
ETA: Yay making out!
ION, if I saw my niece every day there would be no need to ever work out. She likes to be constantly moving, and between lifting her up and down with my arms and bouncing her with my legs over the past two days I am more exhausted and sore than I am when I go to the gym.

One of the happiest couples I know does that plenty.

TCG probably would be fine with it, but we don't have the means at the moment, so it's a moot point.
I'll go on daytrips by myself. I think I would huddle up in a ball and pout if I tried sleeping by myself away from Hubby.
Since we've moved I've gone on many more trips without Tom than we used to do. He has like zero vacation time and I have family obligations. I miss him like crazy when I'm visiting family (I really miss the support he gives me as well as just him, in general) but when I was in San Francisco a couple months ago, it was better. Mostly because I was having super fun times. Though I did wish a lot he was there with me, because I know he'd have had super fun times as well.
Goddamn. I lost D's bank card and it's been used, so he has to cancel it and get a new one. I used it to get poboys at a bar this afternoon while he waited in the car; to be honest, I don't remember the lady giving me the card back, but it's entirely possible that she did and I just left it on the counter like an ass.
He doesn't seem to be mad or even fazed, but this is just the latest in a series of space case moves I've made and I'm super frustrated with myself. Mindfulness, everything comes back to being more mindful.
{{Smonster}}} You've had a lot to deal with lately; don't be so hard on yourself. We have all done stupid things like that.
Ahhh, thanks, sj. I need to work on my zen, since my life is not likely to get less stressful any time soon. I guess it's time to revive my meditation practice.
Lisah, those are hot shoes. I approve.
smonster, everyone pulls an occasional boner. Don't let it faze you too much.
Ugh. Well, the time of the month explains why I had dreams about my back hurting all night long. Ow. How long do these painkillers take to kick in?
