April Showers Bring May Flowers

Happy May to one and all. I must admit I’ve been a bit lax in reading everyone’s diaries, and for that, I apologize. I’ve been spending most of my time at home watching movies or reading boks lately. I just can’t be bothered to get online half the time. Now…let’s see what kinds of updates I can give you so that this wasn’t a total waste of your time.

I’ve decided that I’m going to Washington this fall to visit Carly. She won’t be able to come home for Christmas this year, and certainly won’t come home before that, so this is the only way I’ll get to see her before 2009. I need to look into renewing my passport before then since she mentioned a possible trip to Vancouver, and border crossings are supposed to require passports by then. I don’t know exactly when my trip will be. I’m going to wait for her to get her fall course schedule all worked out first. Unfortunately, that means I won’t have oodles of time to get everything worked out in the end, but I’m cool with that.

Matt and I are doing wellish. I’m starting to notice a few things that could become ‘issues’ if we’re not careful. It’s almost like he’s taking me for granted these days, and by that I mean that he doesn’t seem as keen on doing things that might keep my interest. I hate to admit it, but I can get bored pretty easily in a relationship if things aren’t kept fresh and exciting somehow. It says something about how much I love him that I haven’t been troubled by boredom before now. That said, with the little tiff in Orlando being so recent, I don’t want to request outings that might make it seem like I’m demanding he spend all of his free time and money around people when that’s the last thing he wants to do. I just want a little romance though, and he’s a bit obtuse when it comes to that. I wish I knew some of his friends…for several reasons really, but right now so that I could ask them to find a way to talk to him about it. I’m afraid of becoming a demanding annoyance. I’m actually starting to feel a little like Rene in Mallrats, just not to the point of ditching Matt for another guy.

Let’s see…I think that’s about it really. My life has been fairly dull of late. Sorry I’m boring!

I hope you’re all doing well!

ryn: You are about seventy different kinds of cute. Yay for visiting Carly! I have faith that you can find a way to talk to Matt about how you’re feeling without sounding demanding as you fear doing. *hugs*

Maybe the dynamic you and Matt have is just that you need to be the one encouraging him to get out and do new things, and he’s the one who resists but thanks you for it later… maybe? Maybe you should nip those could-be-issues now, before they become actual issues. -Mike
