Bright Eyes
Things are turning around here at the Arcane family homestead. The squatters are going to be gone soon. Dan and Mitch, at least. BigBlack81 has actually been contributing financially to the household and as much as I hate to admit it we could use a little financial help right now. I really don't mind having one couch surfer at any given time anyway. Three is just way too much, especially when we're talking about some pretty tempermental people. Dan's a good pal and all, and Mitch is alright when she's sober, but neither of them are people I'd choose to cohabitate in close quarters with if I could avoid it.
Brenda called me today while I was hanging out over at holierthancow and Shannon's place. I always love hearing from her, even when she calls from work and I get paranoid that she's going to get in trouble for talking to me at work. I can't wait until I actually get to see her again. I've been trying to encourage her to get a webcam so that I can gawk at her while talking to her for hours on instant messenger. It's not the same as being able to snuggle up with her but it's better than just letters on a screen. Being able to see expressions make a huge difference. I hate long distance relationships, but I love her, so we do what we can to stay close in mind despite not being able to be close in body...at least not for a couple more weeks.
I got not one, not two, not three, but four calls from Little Kendra today. Granted one was to leave me a message, and the other was for five minutes before she had to go and said she'd call me back. The third time, though, we talked for a long time despite the fact that I was still at holierthancow and Shannon's and the fourth time we talked until my phone died. If my phone hadn't died, who knows how long we would have talked. I've noticed lately we've been doing that lingering goodbye thing where neither of us actually wants to hang up. We've defined our relationship as "Friends With Upgrade Potential" (my phrase) as we've not really fooled around enough to be "Friends With Benefits". It probably won't be long, though, before we start working on that upgrade unless Wyspurr or Brenda objects.
I feel kind of popular. I've been spending a lot of time on the phone with beautiful women lately and yesterday I got to strut around L5P with Rosie and Stitch who came over for a visit. Even though neither girl is on my potential list (they're both monogamous types), it's just fun to walk around with a couple of hot chicks. Especially Stitch. Christ, for a girl who just gave birth a couple of weeks ago she had my jaw on the floor when I saw her. She's even sexier now than she was before she was pregnant.
Also yesterday I took Rosie down to Elmyr for a pitcher while Wyspurr drove Stitch home since she's never been and since holierthancow moved out I've been hard pressed to find anyone that wants to share a pitcher with me. I really enjoyed hanging out with her until Wyspurr came and got us because Dan and Mitch were fighting. We sent Mitch away for a few hours to sober up. She came back just as Rosie, Wyspurr, BigBlack81, and I was about to start watching Constantine. We all hade a good time with that, though. Rosie was being really sweet to me. If I didn't know she was so critical of open relationships I might have even made a move or something. Well, probably not as I'd be too afraid of it fucking up us being friends...but the thought did occur to me. Better to err on the side of caution, I say.
Anyway, Wyspurr's home from her night out with Shannon so I guess I'll wrap this up and call it a night. Things have been good between Wyspurrand me since we've been getting a little time away from the clusterfuck that is our household. Almost all our relationship problems tie pretty directly to our massively overloaded stress levels so get us away from the things that stress us out and we go back to being cuddly love bunnies.
Not everything has been a bed of roses, but things are making remarkable progress in a positive direction again and I'm determined to focus and build on that. We have a long way left to go, but this family has made worse journeys and came out smiling and we will do it again.
