I will more than likely be abandoning this LJ more than ever before,
I've finally equiped Poetically Poised with a blog, which is where I'll be most active!

I will most likely post in here when I update over there, but no garuntees.

Blog.PoeticallyPoised.com

(The site is best viewed with Firefox, and definately looks horrible with I.E. At this point, it's not my priority to make it compatible with I.E. though.)

This evening, I saw a movie in the theater.

There was a "love" scene, and it didn't make me bashful.
I normally have these immature thoughts,
"Do people notice I'm watching this... Oh my!"
I didn't care this evening,
I just put it into context with Christopher.

It wasn't just the steamy moments either,
But the little gestures that the characters had.
Like the man playing the drums,
Sticking out his tongue as a concentration tool.

Christopher does something similar,
But more extreme and amusing when he's playing video games.

I love every little thing about him,
No matter how strange it may be,
He fills my heart more and more everyday.

For a relationship that jumped right into us living together,
That's extraordinary, it's beautiful.

He picks his nose a lot,
It's this extensive process of picking, rolling up and throwing it away.
When I was first with him, I couldn't stand it,
I thought I was going to scream so often...
Anymore, I crack a smile and think,
"That's my Christopher!"

I tend to wonder if he's come to feel the same about my habit...
I tend to sniff my fingers a lot,
Like the Catholic School girl from SNL...
Hehe, we make a great couple!

I missed his call this evening,
While I was watching that movie...
It's alright though,
We were thinking of eachother in the same moments...

He's out of the ICU, He WILL be home Saturday!

The latest time for his return was suppose to be Monday morning...
The doctors are saying Wednesday would be the earliest unless his condition improves.

I got off work early last night because I was feeling very sick to my stomach,
At which point I recieved a call from Christopher's older sister...
He was having some of the same issues at that time, except his brought him to a hospital.

Since I've known Christopher, he's gone from 219 to 160 pounds within 2 months.
We never thought it was anything severe, but apparently a plane ride can bring out the worst.

As much as I'm lonely, I am so very thankful he went on this trip...
It's a life saver.

He is a diabetic, and went into diabetic shock yesterday evening.
I hate that I'm down here and not with him,
I'm doing everything I can to make sure he gets what he needs.
He has no health insurance, so I have to work on that...

This event is my catharsis...
This is the ass kicking I need to get out of my head and into my life.

I just hope I can be what he needs...
But I know I am what he needs and wants,
Because he tells me all the time, and I know it's true...
I'm a very caring individual,
I will be a good wife,
I am a good wife...

I guess I could thank my Dad for the early training... :P

I just saw him off on a plane...
I'm going to be lonely for the weekend.

I'll put myself in all those public places I'd normally avoid,
Because I have to keep busy, I have to keep my mind going level and not down.

All will be fine, I will appreciate him and love him more by Monday.
There's just something so depressing about being in a city with few to visit.

If anybody in town has some free time, and they'd like to spend a little with me,
Just let me know, because I'm craving interaction.
