Sneaking away …

So apparently, when you live with someone, you’re together, like, all the time. Revelation of the century, I know. Let’s see, since starting this post, Matt has already walked over to my desk to give me a hug, glance at my laptop screen and ask, “What’s happening on the internet? Anything good?” Dude, we’re totally up in each other’s grills.

I mean, it’s great! Cohabitation has been wonderful, really (Hi Matt if you’re still looking at me). Our lives are meshing together (almost) effortlessly and it’s exciting and fun and just so right. But, well …

I need space.

As in uninterrupted quiet time. Time to sit and ponder the meaning of life. Time to blog. Time away from the sounds of Star Wars marathons and video games. Time away.

I’m still figuring it out. For now, I have to get ready to crawl into bed with my sweet fiance. Life isn’t too shabby.

  1. Haha, been there! Sometimes I love it when my husband’s totally addicted to video games because that’s when I have time to myself. But sometimes it gets to the point where we really miss each other and need quality time together.

  2. Yes, this is hard. Well like you said, if I am sitting here blogging, reading blogs, etc…Chris’ computer is in the same room and he’s most likely playing video games, loudly (because he refuses headphones, grrr). He’ll ask me the same questions as Matt, lol! I am like, I am just puttering around on the Internet!! Peace and quiet, kthnxbye. :) And while he is playing games and I want to liten to my own music, or perhaps watch tv, I am always nagging “TURN THAT DOWN PLEASSEEE”. Oh man. but it’s fun!

  3. Reading between the lines is important. It’s a good thing we went through premarital counseling and I am now an expert on relationships. What I understand is that you are feeling neglected and need some attention. I’ll be ready when you get home so you won’t have to spend a second alone.

  4. hahahah I’m loving Matt’s comment. Oh man.

    It really is hard to escape the sound of video games in a two-bedroom condo! Ahhhh!

  5. Matt is too funny.

    Love it.

    I totally get this. Too often, Mike will be all, “So, watcha lookin’ at online?” which makes me mad because it only serves to make me realize that I am, in fact, just WASTING LOTS OF TIME ONLINE, thank you.

  6. we have two tv’s. It works for us :). The whole, it’s his iPad thing doesn’t.

  7. I know what you mean. Especially on the Star Wars front ;)
