    I read these two posts to him and we had a good laugh. Sure he has lots of good qualities, and he does some amazing things (like running his age every year) but sometimes he is very eccentric/idiosyncratic.

    To think that even with good qualities, you might never get annoyed, or even upset with your partner is just unrealistic. If you are like AZ, you can laugh about it in the end, but this is just part of life.
    I get annoyed with my DH, for what I perceive to be "stupid" things. We do things differently, despite our many similarities, so I mostly don't say anything, but occasionally, I am like AZ and say, "And what were you thinking???"After almost 38 years, so what? Guess I am not perfect, just truthful.

    Yikes! Glad he is ok! I also totally understand why he waited - it's like my fall last year at work that I attempted to ignore...hoping he heals quickly from his fall!

    Dear Prince
    From my preteen years with my cousin Precilia and your Emancipation album to your ‘Rally 4 Peace’ concert in Baltimore last year you’ve been in my life a long time. From irritating my grandmother to the Baltimore rally with its symbolic message of our shared humanity as a catalyst for pause and reflection following Freddie Gray’s death…..I’ve enjoyed many moments with your musical spirit. I hope you get to meet Precilia……

    au revoir mon amour

    Lovely, thanks Rebecca.

    I feel in love with When Doves Cry playing in the background, bittersweet memories.

    Dear universe,

    Whatever you've been doing taking seminal artists away from us recently, put it on hold for a while, okay? Please?



    (Dear Az - glad your DH is going to be okay. Understand that he was probably a little shock-y and not in a position to make completely rational decisions. Hope he doesn't have any joint strains/displacements.)

    Thanks Oakleaf- it was mostly cuts and scrapes... the hand was kind of ugly- glad I didn't have to see it before he went to the doc. He still has bad wrist from his last running incident, in which he fell on both wrists on the sidewalk just by our house.... one has never healed completely and that was 3 years ago.
