ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod...
I can't believe I just talked to Glen.
I'm sitting here now, trying to type and fan myself with one hand to keep from crying. It was so cool hearing his voice again... Ah man... here I go... Wow... I can go on and die now.I got to hear him laugh again... first time in about 19 years. I can't see...
I'm grinning, laughing and crying all at the same time, so if this is fulla typos...
I'm just glad I held it together while he was on the phone. 19 years in the Navy.
17 years married... (hi, Vicky.)
13 year old daughter. He's fine.
He's GREAT.
Just like he used to be. Of course, he says "I don't know why you had such a hard time finding me. I've found myself several times on the computer. Took me about 12 seconds..." Well, gee, Babe... you were probably spelling your name right, for one thing.
Plus, YOU knew where you were and where to look.
I was futzin' around with your Jersey info.... I'm gonna KILL my stupid brother-in-law, too, by the way...
I don't TALK to Bruce, but I am gonna kick his ass.
HE'S the reason I never actually "dated" Glen.
I asked. I asked Glen, "What the hell... why didn't we ever go out? Was it because of Bruce?" "Yep. You were all into him back then..." "Yeah. I remember. You do know it's his brother I'm seperated from, kinda, right?" "Yep." *much laughing during alla this* (Bruce, I ever see you again, I'm just gonna bury my foot in yer ass. And, not even because you screwed my stupid mother.
I don't give a DAMN about that.
But, you caused me to keep things "minimized" with Glen and that, I do NOT forgive.
You shithead.) On the other hand... like I told Glen, he's probably better off married to Vicky.
The Navy is about to send him away, overseas, for a YEAR in two weeks and if it was me he was married to... no way, man. They'd have to pry me offa him with a friggin' crowbar. Which brings me to my (needless) worry about trying to explain my current life...
I was wondering what he was gonna think when I got to the part about me being with Eric now (who is also (ex)Navy *big grin*) and George living with us.
I had nothing to worry about. Glen's in-laws are in a veeeery similar situation, so he's used to it. Didn't even raise an eyebrow.... *giggle* That fuckin' nut, Glen... his wife happened by while he was on the phone and he told her he was talkin' to his girlfriend... *lmao*
Oh yeah, that's the way to make sure she's cool with me.... riiiight.
That'll work. Next time she wandered by, she had a steak knife in her hand... *laughing even harder*
(I think they were barbequing, though... with music out the windows, across the pool deck, and she ended up out there, dancing with her daughter.) Oh cool... I think I just found Glen's friend Mark, from Cherry Hill...
(I've got 7 windows going on here at the same time and the increasingly more annoying theme song from "The Stepford Wives" wafting in here from the kitchen, where the movie has ended and the DVD is waiting for me to stop it, start it over or shoot it.)
Man, if it wasn't after 11pm, I'd call Mark right now and give him Glen's number... Matter of fact, I'm gonna go do some more research into this, while I've still got the access (and have finally quit leakin' about the eyes) and see what I can come up with. He said he'd call again.
He's got my number, my email and my URL. And, I have his email and he said it's fine to email him any time.
(I also have him in my cell phone now, thank you God, seriously.) I told him to check out Xfire when he gets overseas and finds himself bored.
Three years of my head oughta keep him entertained for quite a while, huh? Hey, Glen?
I don't know when you'll see this, but I'm pretty sure you will, sooner or later... Just wanted to letcha know... again... Love ya, Buddy.
Thank you for being one of the few really good, never hurtful, parts of my past and for being there when I called tonight and for still being the same Glen. That means more than I can say or explain.
And...
so do you.
