Zenkitty, I feel the same way. My few remaining true love fantasies involve a wonderful man living in a house next door.
Zoe: Next time we smuggle stock, let's make it something smaller. Wash: Yeah, we should start dealing in those black-market beagles.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, my grandmother's earrings are a funny story: She found one of them, and bought another to match AND got her ears pierced! They are little, at any rate.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Honestly, I may never be able to live with someone else ever again. I'm moody and impatient and introverted and not real energetic, and I've lived by myself too long to easily accommodate someone else in my space.
Right there with you. Behind my well-defined boundaries that I control access through, I mean.

I'm married and I still fantasize about this. In my fantasy, he and the kids have a house and I have an apartment over the garage.

When my kids were little, I totally fantasized about having my own tiny little apartment, where everything was white and there were no toys. AND IT WAS QUIET.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
My fantasies involve a weekend vacation away from kids, no cooking, and nothing work related. As reasonable as that sounds, it has never happened and isn't likely to happen any time in the foreseeable future. oh well. depressed now.

Amy, one of the houses on the Home Tour I went on in October had been extensively remodeled with the husband actually doing most of the work rather than hiring contractors or whatever. One of the things he did was turn a tiny garage into a tiny studio for his wife with a murphy bed, frilly decor (because that's what she wanted and it didn't go with the rest of the house) and a bathroom - so she would have a retreat all her own. All of us on the tour were jealous.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Right now, my fantasies are limited to my parents and in-laws finding somewhere other than the bottom of the stairs right below my kids bedroom to talk loudly about what's causing my kids to misbehave.
And when I brought up the fact that sound carries and Dylan can hear every word they're saying, my mother chewed me out for not bringing it up earlier, "before blowing up at everyone."
Oh, and one of my credit card numbers was stolen. Fuck this weekend.

Oh Jess, that's not fair. I'm sorry.
