Optimistic
Oct. 23rd, 2006 10:33 pmI was in a good - no, a great mood - today, but my coworker was feeling sick and generally prickly-don't-smile-at-me. Do you know how exhausting and opressing it is to contain a good mood so as not to be obnoxiously happy to someone in a bad one?
However, after a few miles' walk, a comic book and holding a beautiful cat (Ember, one of the comic shop cats, is growing up absolutely elegant, graceful and sweet), I'm feeling significantly better. Heck, back to oh-so-in-love with the world.
There's something subtly changing about Jeff. Not how he acts or feels about me, really ...but I feel like this little drama we've been dealing with is about to conclude favorably for all concerned. I have a few theories - nothing concrete - and there's always the possibility that it's me that's changing (I always said I would do anything for the guy, even help him leave me, and once the brain-computer figures out what I need to become nothing stands in its way...), but whatever is happening I feel like pretty soon he's never going to need to worry about me again. God knows precisely where this is going, but I think it's the right place.
