Short Nothings in Book Six: Trying to Hold On 2019

(1) I am writing this from my phone and I bloody HATE typing on my phone! I mean, don’t get me wrong… I prefer receiving texts to phone calls… but typing? Whether autocorrect or my own fat thumbs, it quickly becomes a frustrating process most often punctuated by spaces instead of “n” and other bizarre anomalies.

(2) I’ve not been able to catch up on reading bookmarks at all; been too busy with Conference stuff. So sorry! I will read up this weekend and next week!

(3) I have so much building up. Not at work, I don’t think. It seems like work is managing acceptably. But everywhere else. This is one of the really important unfortunate aspects of a “frequent/often/consistent” celibate marriage. When I’m not in class, I’m with Wife. Walking the dog, doing Networking Dinners, taking care of the dog, watching a movie, sleeping… all Me&Wife. On one side? Good. We definitely had an important talk about she needs to start making Active Proactive Definite steps to start living intentionally and thoughtfully and… well, start to figure out if/how she wants to be a Functional Adult and/or Wife. So that is good. But also? I mean… it also prevents me from things. Like deep reading on Prosebox. Like jerking off… because we’re still in our extended “off again” sex phase… since March 29. Again, not THAT long but also it is less direct and more allegory about our lack of physical AND emotional contact/connection. Plus, I am away from almost all of my preferred entertainment (anime, video games, etc). So… sexually frustrated, emotionally tired, and entertainment frustrated. I get it, I get it… First World Problems. But… I’ll be happy to get home, get some rest, crank one out, play some Fight For Sanctuary, and watch some Attack on Titan.
