Awww relief...

So - I'm sitting around earlier today - moping. It's a terrible horrible no good very bad day. Now - I'm in Maine - so it's better than some - but bad as far as good days go...

David left yesterday... sad. I know it was time - but I'll miss his energy and late night chats. This beach feels empty today.

Next - I hit my damn head. HARD. I'm guessing from my blurred vision in triplicate - terrible headache and tender noggin that I did sustain some form of a mild concussion.

The beach is beautiful, my kids are wonderful and make me happy - but today I'm just a little blue. I want to be out having fun but my damn head hurts!

So..... then Joanna arrives. Her beautiful smile and most gorgeous strawberry blonde curly hair made my whole damn day... We spent the afternoon discussing David's fine points and those of my beautiful little girls. :) I was so happy to see her it brought me to tears. :) I love her.

That's all...

Behold - my name is Meeks...

Ok - I'm in love. With a little boy. Well - he's all grown up now and it's probably highly inappropriate to have a crush when I'm married and have 2 kids. :) Well - Dan has the same crush so I'm not as worried...

I was reintroduced to a face from my past on my vacation. His name is David and I've been swept off my feet. At 300+ lbs that's hard to do.

Ok - you flamers - and you know who you are - I'm prepared to listen to your tirade on the sanctity of my marriage vows - but before you get going - let me challenge you - spend an hour in his presence - well, for goodness sakes 5 darn minutes and you'll be obsessed as well. :)

Here are some of his more redeeming qualities -
*First and foremost - he has the MOST amazing voice, it's deep and rich and melodic - and is usually followed by the most boisterous, heartfelt laugh ahhhhhh
*He is an old soul.
*He makes me feel like a queen - and not my pantyhose size--- he totally gets me for who I am
*He's smart
*He's kind
*He's a pitcher ;) - you know what that means - great arms
*He has a smile bigger than his home state
*He's amazing.

So - I know you are asking why I haven't left my family and run off into the mountains with him? Well - besides the obvious fact that I'm married to the perfect man for me?

NO - he's not 15... :)

Here's the kicker - I'm finally a grown up. I re-met this amazing man (did I mention he's beautiful on the outside too???) and although I WAS attracted to him (I'm married, not dead for goodness sakes!!!) I unfortunately came to the realization that I want him more for a son than a boy toy... He gives me hope in the world IS good. It's a pretty tall order for one man - but he sure fits the bill. He made me reconsider having a third child - and I don't mean WITH him! ;)

So - I'm done raving - for now!

Some more of THINGS I WANT TO DO IN MY LIFE:

* Wear a size 12
* Feel good about running a mile - but I certainly don't want to be a runner :)
* I want to have a photograph published
* Visit Alaska
* Swing on a tire swing
* Wear my hair long - midback
* Wear my hair short

What else I'm watching ...

Oceans 12 - I THINK it was good :) I didn't really pay too much attention to it. What I saw of it - I liked it!

Closer - This was a nifty little flick. Jude Law is in everything isn't he??? I did not think this was Julia Roberts best - but Natalie Portman was great playing her normal "quirky" character. she's just gorgeous - is she not? Not such a feel good movie for the married folk - and made me feel like I needed to take a shower. CLive Owen was scarily good.

What I've been Watching...

Family Plots - This TV show is amazingly bizarre. I'm entranced by their disfunctional family - and the Six Feet Under themed death business.

Real World Austin - WOW - I'm glad by kids are under 18 still. These kids make me sad. I know there are redeeming values that Mtv doesn't show for the sake of non-drama - but I really hope that all 18-25 year olds are not so slutty, ignorant, entitled, selfish and moraleless. I'm not a prude - and I sure do enjoy watching the drama they bring - but I just keep thinking of how their parents must feel watching them act like this on national TV.
