Which I have! (originally, I wanted a fried egg sandwich, then bacon and eggs (but there's no bacon in the house), and that evolved into Steak and Eggs.

...I still find it funny (and a little sad, I admit), that two years later, I'm still amazed by the idea that not only do I have real food in the house, but that I'll be eble to eat it without getting lectured or yelled at for eating it (or cooking it, for that matter).

Anyway, gonna go cook my breakfast before the old tape kicks in and I don't actually make it because 'I shouldn't'.

...sometimes it takes a while to heal, you know?

No explosions. Yet.

Maybe I'll luck out and that'll be the end of it. One can hope.

The one with the zircon stone that belonged to the ex.

Been trying to think of what to do with it.

I'm going to give it back to her. In the time I've had it, it's been nothing but a reminder and a focus for, to be honest, all the worst things in my relationships. I don't want it, can't wear it anyway, and can't bring myself to try and sell it, give it to someone else, or, as I'd been thinking of doing the past month, doing something like flushing it down the toilet.

It seems right to give it back. And, I'll admit, a bit symbolic. As in 'here, I don't want you, your nastiness, or the bad, fucked up ju-ju your so-called love brings'.

It still won't bring my grandmother's ring back, and it's a less than ideal talisman against future relationship fuck-ups, but at least I'll be clean, if that makes sense.

Well, okay, it's no so much that as just me replacing something, but still...

This is what reclaiming really is )

Although I wish I could be.

One year ago today, this is where I was (and yes, it's f'locked).

Things are so different now. And that seems so long ago.

And damn it feels good to not be in that place anymore, or be that person anymore. :)

So, you know, I work in the same place as the ex. Which is fine--we only bump into each other in the hallways occasionally when our travels on breaks, coming in and leaving work happen to coincide.

I've been keeping it pleasant--I smile, I say hi. I don't ask her how things are, because that seems like a stupid thing to say to the person you broke up with. I don't ignore her either, because that's equally rude in my book.

Well, she tried, usually, to respond in kind. Sort of.

But...I think that's over with now. For the past two weeks, the 'tude has been going steadily downhill with her.

And today, it finally downgraded to The Glare when I smiled and said hello in the hall. You know, The Glare, the one that usually preceeded a fight when I lived with her.

Guess my time and grace period is up and I'm now officially on the Shit List Of Ex's.

What's sad (for her, anyway)?

I'm actually laughing about it.

SO GLAD TO BE OUT, THANK YOU!!!!
