I don't mind cleaning.  It's relaxing and gives me time to think.

We were... in my new apartment. He was so happy and for a moment it felt like the old days. We were kissing before I could stop myself.

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

Okay, and he kissed back?

[a_time_slip]

Yes.

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

And then what?

[a_time_slip]

We stopped, and I gave him a tour of the apartment. Nothing else happened.

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

Is anything else going to happen?

[a_time_slip]

I don't usually do things like that, Vito. He doesn't either.

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

So, it was a one-time thing.

[a_time_slip]

As long as I'm dating you, yes.

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

Fine. Are you going to stop being angry at me for no apparent reason, now that you've 'fessed up to what happened?

[a_time_slip]

I'm not angry at you!

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

No, but you were acting as though you were angry at me.

[a_time_slip]

I don't know what I'm angry at.

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

Probably with yourself, or you were. And I'll bet it feels better now that you said something, right?

[a_time_slip]

Yes. No.

This is driving me mad.

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

Hey, I'm past it, myself.

[a_time_slip]

I can't get past it. It's like I betrayed both of you.

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

It was a mistake, that's all.

[a_time_slip]

Are you going to dump me?

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

Why would I dump you? And if I was going to, don't you think I'd have said so by now?

[a_time_slip]

Because after your relationship history, you've got to know this can't last. You're only fooling yourself. Though I suppose anything is better than mourning a woman trapped beneath tons of snow.

*which sounds an awful like something Lynn would say if in a certain dark eyed mood*

Happiness isn't a destination, it's the trip.

[a_time_slip]

You're only saying that you can't hold down a functional relationship. I was married for fifty years, so clearly I'm superior.

[vito-the-mook.livejournal.com]

Wonderful. Want a cookie?

[a_time_slip]

No. I'm going out to get completely wasted. If you see Lynn, tell her I'm not coming home, she'll know where to go.

Even she likes you!
