after 4 wonderful, delicious, peaceful, quiet, perfect months, the a**hole is returning home today.
it's been so good to not have him here.
we cooperate so much better, things are where we put them, there is no bickering, we don't have to keep an eye on everything, the TV is off whenever we're not watching something, there's no loo queue, no one's in the way in the kitchen when we're cooking, no one's running past back and forth like a passive aggressive brat the moment we're trying to do something and move things around It's perfect when he's not here to spread his bad mood and be in the way and make noise, so much noise. He even manages to breathe loudly! How the shell do you do that??
I've been living 100% in the present these 4 months, soaking up every bit of it. enjoying it completely, not even wanting to waste time online or playing or reading, because being here and now is just so good!
It's been soooo great, and the truth is it always is when you're not here. The only times you have crossed my mind has been when I thought of something about you that annoys me. Like "how wonderful it is to not have TV on all the f*****g time" or "it's so peaceful to put something somewhere and know it's gonna be there when I go back". I never miss you.
I wish I could just live these past 4 months on repeat forever and ever and ever, even if it has to be including the gd cold that is still plaguing me. Thanks heavens I'm better now, I need to be healthy to endure your presence and noise, so much noise, no matter what you're doing, it's so much noise.
