Status Quo
I was so stressed about Saturday (more about my tendon than about Thom) that I barely slept Friday night. I stared at my pillow most of the night. Very unusual for me.
Saturday morning's therapy analysis revealed that my left leg is short than my right causing me to overcompensate and overpronate my feet when I run. I have been given a series of stretches to do twice daily. And limitations on my exercise routine over then next several weeks to recover. Problem is that I have to join yet another new gym, one with a pool. And find a sporty swimsuit to do laps in. Cheaper than several visits to physical therapy though.
The therapist was concerned about my being ready for the San Fran Half Marathon but after a few tears and talking to some friends, I KNOW that I will be ready and I will be stronger.
Even my father told me tonight that he knows that I will be more than ready to hike the Grand Canyon in September when I mentioned my injury. (My parents are now arriving Friday night with my new Vibe!)
My date night with Thom got changed. He had to buy a new tire so our Date Night on legendary Melrose Ave got changed to a crock pot of soup at his place. We never even got to the soup. And we skipped the conversation as well.
I think I have mentioned before that one of the things Thom and I have in common is passion. We have incredible sex. I tease him that he's my marathon man in the bedroom. He mentioned this to a couple of his friends recently and they said they are 30 minute men and then it's off to dreamland. Thom and I both felt sad for their girlfriends as that 30 included foreplay as well.
I think Thom and I set a new record this weekend. In 24 hours I think we racked up about six and half hours of naked time. Yes, a major reason I stay with him.
But in this time, there wasn't any real conversation about our relationship. Just plans for things coming up, like a friend's birthday weekend in the desert next month. Thom's own birthday plans in June, where he invited my friends to attend as well.
After brunch we skipped the hike and went back to his place for a nap. Before I left I tried to bring up the aforementioned conversation spurred by my accidental meeting of his ex on Tuesday. But he kept changing the subject. When I said that it was hard for me to tell him that I love him because he's so weird about it, he was looking away, petting his dog and said that I was weird about it. But that was all I got.
So we're back to status quo. Except that I've told him that I love him a few times now. And once he let it slip in the heat of the moment, that he loves having sex with me... then immediately went back to the word like.
I still think he has a problem with the L word.
