I bet MY night's gonna be more fun than YOURS....

[Robb]

...Any second now, my suddenly-ex-girlfriend is coming over to try to move two years' worth of stuff out in... well, what's becoming fewer and fewer hours. :eyes:

This morning, I attacked the bedroom. Put all her books in boxes, cleaned off the bookshelf, and re-arranged the furniture. Bed's in a whole new corner of the room, dresser's elsewhere, everything all dusted and vacuumed. Gratifying.

[rug]

1. Do you realize that dust is composed, in large part, of her skin cells?

[Robb]

3. Nice thought

We'll always be together, at least on top of the picture frames. :D

[hippywife]

2. I hope you

are able to get through the evening without too much difficulty or too many hard feelings. For your sake, I hope it is quick and without a hitch. No sense in making a bad situation worse over nothing more than stuff.

:hug:

[Robb]

4. Quick would be merciful, but unlikely

I mean, I spent several hours today on a very small part of a single room. "Unrealistic," while also the watchword for everything she does lately, applies well on this plan. :eyes:

[Dangerously Amused]

5. Well done.

Dude, you belong in Psy-Ops.


Series.

[Robb]

8. You mean with myself as the target?

...Or, the "wow, it's so clean here I couldn't possibly leave him now" plan? :rofl:

[Dangerously Amused]

12. You could work it either way. You're good enough. :D

Either the "Aww, he made all that effort for me, I can't leave him now" plan, or the "OMG, that sumbitch packed up my stuff AND re-arranged the bedroom already!!!" plan.

[Robb]

15. I'm going with plan B there

Not so much for the "sumbitch" factor, but really, I'm not going to sit around here. I know I'm supposed to be a wreck, but I've been spending time with friends, swimming every day, etc.

I think since I have 45 minutes, I'm going to go "purify" the upstairs bathroom. :D

[democracyindanger]

6. Maybe you can distract yourself

Like, I dunno, maybe WRITING AN EMAIL TO SKINNER ABOUT YOUR 'LET'S START A MOTORCYCLE/SCOOTER GROUP' THREAD THAT FINALLY GOT ENOUGH YES VOTES TO ACTUALLY FORM A GROUP?!?!?!

Just sayin'.

[Robb]

7. Hey, hey, cool yer pipes already

Already done. The man's got a full plate, ya dig? :D

[democracyindanger]

9. Oh, in that case

watch cable porn while she's moving out. :P

[Robb]

10. I've already got Charlie Parker on. Loudly.

She inexplicably can't stand jazz. :evilgrin:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. My dear Robb.........

I just hope that she doesn't flake out on you, and not show up......

:shrug:

[Robb]

13. You are some kinda psychic

She was already late, of course, and just called... "It was such a beautiful day" etc. etc. :eyes:

She's about 45 minutes out, yet still coming. I have no idea what she thinks she can do in an hour or two. :eyes:

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. I hope you just stuck it outside.

:hug:

[Robb]

19. Gave it some thought

...then the weather cleared up. No point, since there's no mud or snow. ;)

I decided the trauma of helping pack her life away was smaller than that incurred if it drags out.

On edit: she was stupid tired, couldn't do anything. Trying again today.

[Haole Girl]

14. Hang in there

:hug:

[JVS]

16. You shouldn't be lifting a finger to help her!

Set up some chairs and drink beer with friends while watching her lug stuff away!

[Callalily]

18. Hope that the move

went well. And you have the right attitude, keeping busy, rearranging your place to fit your needs/wants, spending time with friends, playing jazz! Wishing you good luck in the healing process.

:hug:
