AriaIncognito Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 So am I not the only one on this thread that eats potatoes raw, or are you using potato as another name for something else and I'm just slow lol. Any progress we make is worth mentioning, keep it up.
Trialbyfire Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 No ariawoman. It's a carry-over from another thread that carrot posted. It's one of her food preferences, including and especially vodka distillation. Oh. Lest we forget, grey salt, lots and lots of grey salt.
AriaIncognito Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Damn. Well then my secret is out. I eat raw potatoes. With salt. Peeled of course. Red ones taste sweeter than idaho russet, but both will do hehehehehe No hitting the sauce carrot. Drinking + already sad over ex = stupid phone calls at 3am.
Trialbyfire Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Hmmm...not a bad idea. A 3 am drunk dial, breathing potato breath all over the phone. Let him hear you gnawing...
Author carrotgirl Posted October 5, 2007 Author Posted October 5, 2007 Blessings upon you. Another laugh. I'm so wretchedly tired. My shrink called me earlier to ask would I consider meeting a trauma specialist? I said I would. It's only been three weeks but I'm tired of being tired. Time. I have to remember about time. Aria? I am going to do better tomorrow. I wasn't thinking about anything more than getting something to eat when I went into the kitchen and saw him there. Next time I'll walk away. Carrot
Author carrotgirl Posted October 5, 2007 Author Posted October 5, 2007 I missed all of the witty banter before! I deleted the ex from my records during week 1. There will be NO sodden phonecalls. I'm out of vodka and I'm too lazy to go to a pub or store for more. Not even if it would take me past the ex's building. Instead I'm indulging in far more guilty pleasures, eating another potato (I washed it) and watching Hellboy over and over again with nothing else between. I finally got my period so maybe the moodswing crazies will dissipate somewhat?
Trialbyfire Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Poor carrot. I can't imagine working with the ex, while trying to get over him. It does suck. Hellboy was one whacked out movie. It was strangely entertaining. I can't decide why. Played over and over again, I dunno... PMS will do it, every time. A nice hot water bottle or heating pad might help to relax you.
Author carrotgirl Posted October 5, 2007 Author Posted October 5, 2007 The crazy thing is, it seems like the more I distance myself, relatively of course, the more he tries and closes the gap. It was brutally difficult not to share with him today. I got a proof copy of the journal my paper will be in today. I really wanted to show him. Instead, I put it away. Even with all that, I'm not comfortable with him in my office. I'm considering taking a leave. This is all a bit much. Oh yah. I have the hot water bottle, the heating pad and the air conditioner soothing my crampy, cranky bod! Carrot
Trialbyfire Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 How much longer will he be consulting for your company?
Author carrotgirl Posted October 5, 2007 Author Posted October 5, 2007 Hellboy was one whacked out movie. It was strangely entertaining. I can't decide why. Played over and over again, I dunno... It's the soundtrack, so very soothing.
Author carrotgirl Posted October 5, 2007 Author Posted October 5, 2007 How much longer will he be consulting for your company? There's no way of knowing. If I had to guess I'd guess another year.
Trialbyfire Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 It's the soundtrack, so very soothing. I wouldn't go that far...
Trialbyfire Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 There's no way of knowing. If I had to guess I'd guess another year. Hmmm...you do have a problem. Do you really love where you're working?
Author carrotgirl Posted October 5, 2007 Author Posted October 5, 2007 It's as much of a problem as I make it right? Not to keep beating the poor, dead equine, but if we all agree, and I think we do, that he's coming around for another go, then I might as well stay. It's a good situation except for the new addition. Carrot
Trialbyfire Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 It's difficult to gauge what he's around for. Perhaps he's trying to be professionally pleasant. It's so hard to tell. When someone breaks up with you, it doesn't meant they don't still have feelings for you, in some fashion. It just means that they made a decision that there might not be a future. Painful to hear carrot. I'm sorry.

Trialbyfire Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Makes quite a difference in perception carrot. I would play it cool with this guy. Distant but professional. It doesn't matter what he thinks. It matters that you apply the energy from your emotion to help yourself get over him.
