And...I made it. Yay!
Like you can see from the earlier post, my plan of avoidance was working. Even better than I hoped, actually.
First, they were late. Then, I just happened to be in the shower when they got here. I took my time finishing, too. Then, after I'd said "Hi' and bullshitted for about 1/2 an hour, me and George went to the store. Came back and made sloppy joes. Bill showed up and asked about me driving a load so I said sure. Then, when I got back, I decided to make Tollhouse cookies and still managed to keep my distance.
Now, they're gone, I've got the last batch of cookies in, Eric is watching TV, soaking his feet in this hot water/foot massager thing. I'm about to clean the tub, light candles and put his ass in some hot water to soak awhile. Then, as he's laying there in bed waiting to fall asleep, I'll be 'tickling' him. It's not really tickling, in the accepted sense, but it's not scratching either. I just run my fingertips everywhere and he has seizures, basically. (Not real ones, of course.) On his back, I use my hair, too. Just sweep it back and forth real slow. He seems to like that.

Candles, tub, fingertips, hair...I'm havin' seizures just reading about it!
My heartiest congrats on getting through the "visit" without a meltdown. You should be proud of yourself.

(Anyway...) I like being able to see Eric go from all knotted up and tense to loose, relaxed and happy. The look in his eyes changes radically. It's cool. It's also cool if it goes somewhere else, but ususally, I put him to sleep with that...(smiling).
So, I've been wanting to ask someone (hopefully you)-Didja move? Do I have the address wrong? Or wha'? I keep checking, but haven't seen a new post since September 29th. I've been assuming it's just me with an old address, or the wrong one, or something. But, now that you're here...How ya been? Where ya at? And "Hi!"
