You let 6 months go by, and the world evolves. Stupid people remain stupid; the awesome become even more so. I'm writing for a pretty selfish reason in that some days I can't stop thinking about how marvelous someone is. I don't want to trash myself and talk about how deluded I must have been to think that previous relationships were ideal, but I *will* concede that rather than abandoning situations that should have been categorized as hopeless to begin with, I attempted to "fix" and mold them into something against their wills that instead should have been natural all along. I'm sure that this is why some people second-guess their way down the aisle to the altar when there are what-ifs in their relationships. Once you've discovered one that runs itself with little effort and the effort you find yourself putting in comes easily and doesn't equate to having a second job, it's that much harder NOT to look back and wonder what the fuck it was you were doing all those years before. This isn't to say that a relationship can't evolve and have its moments of confusion versus moments of clarity, but when you've truly found a person you can call your soul mate and you feel satisfied simply coexisting with the person rather than feeling as if you're "managing" the relationship, it's quite exhilarating in its simplicity. We can even sit around and talk about flatulence without feeling alarmed or repulsed. Such a precious gift, that one.
All that said, this summer will bring a change of residence--cohabitation being the reason--and a higher monthly payment, but quite an improvement in neighborhood and accommodations as well. A certain beagle will also be reunited with her owner after a year of exile at the family house, and a certain calico will no doubt be intrigued by the addition of another warm, furry body not of the feline species. Things are looking fabulous; let's keep it that way, everyone.
