I didn't know ...
Maybe I should have known, but I just didn't realize ... maybe I never even really thought about it.
Once upon a time, when Mr. Man was coming home drunk, he was verbally abusive. Sometimes he'd even raise a hand to me but it never progressed to physical violence. [I know -- abuse is abuse.] I talked to him about it, told him I lived scared all the time, scared while I was waiting for him all day and scared once he arrived home -- always scared. He stopped being abusive toward me but was still a jackass in general. I was no longer afraid of him, I just dreaded being around him.
Last...
"It's all right for a perfect stranger to kiss your hand as long as he's perfect." Mae West
To go along with my Blowing Kiss and Warm Hands, Warm Heart sculptures / candleholders, I bought this today at less than half price. I love it when that happens.
I've got a crush ...
I confess, I'm not a dog person -- I'm a cat person. I didn't want Pisspup but how could I allow anyone to abandon him during evacuation for Hurricane Gustav? Even when my heart began to soften, I didn't want to become attached to him because I can't take him with me when I move back to California. Even as I tried not to let my emotions get all wrapped around this little guy, he ran in, snuck off with my heart, dragged it under the bed and now I'll never get it back!
I know it's not the same, but I know better now what my mother meant when she said she couldn't refuse me anything...
Just for fun ...
