thepnutgalleryChris from PS gave me the "let's just be fuck-buds" talk a few weeks ago. I was surprisingly affected by this, even if happy in the long run.
Got an e-mail from my mom later that same week, asking when exactly I was planning on telling them I am HIV Positive. I responded that I hadn't been planning on telling them, but directed them to some websites on the topic of what it does and does not mean to have HIV currently. Haven't actually spoken to them since then, but have rec'd Facebook messages stating their love and support.
First Husband Anthony made a Bunny Mix for his ipod. A musical Squeak is a happy Squeak. :-)
Took my 18y/o half sister out to lunch this week. We may hang out more once she's more mobile.
Got the word yesterday that Ken is in a new relationship. This left me a little dizzy and stunned for a couple hours, but by the end of the night, I found myself surprisingly nonplussed. As it turns out, the best way to get over an old relationship is not to get a new one. It's for them to.
All of this business lately, and the gentleman visitor who was also a psychotherapist, got me thinking lately about my dad's early divorce, and the confusion that set in when my mom started taking care of me. Did I want him to get back with the woman who gave birth to me? What then would happen to my mom? Should I feel guilty about thinking of her as my mom? Should I feel guilty if I don't?

But then again I have been gone from LJ for a LONG time. *Hugs*
Be carefully listening to Postal Service when you are feeling sad and introspective, it can lead you to a dark place. I know from personal experience.
