Hello all. Haven't posted in a while, been busy with work and the like. Had some interesting developments occur lately. First off, my wife was fired from her job in daycare for something she did not do, then went to another center out of the blue, walked in and met the owner, and walked out with a job offer to be the new director. On top of that, she took the postal exam, scored well, and got a call for a rural route consideration (the one that is only one day a week, usually a weekend) and was thrilled beyond belief. How is that for some interesting developments?
On the CD front, she has also accompanied me to the mini GNO's in Warren now a total of 3 times, and to the monthly GNO on Saturday twice. She even went out shopping with me to a local outlet mall. For the longest time, she said she would never go out with me in public, so I am still surprised and wonder why the change?
As if that isn't enough, she actually got into a conversation with Lisa, the barkeep at the GNOs on a Wednesday night. Wednesdays are alot more laid back and you can talk to people without having to scream just to be heard. The karaoke is no more, which was run by Lisa's sister, and her sister moved to Tampa. Anyway, my wife and Lisa started talking about my "hobby" and how she found out and how she felt about it. I was surprised that this conversation was occurring, and even more surprised by my wife's answers. She was asked when did i "come out" to her, and neither one of us could recall any specific date, time or event. Just sort of was, I guess. Then she was asked her views on it, and my wife came out and said that it was a part of me and that she supports my hobby and you can't take only the parts you like about someone, you have to take the whole package. She still has her moments when she is not crazy about it, but is generally supportive of it, as i have mentioned in the past, just not participatory. I am still unsure of why the modification on her behalf, but i am not going to complain about it. My wife has usually gone shopping with me, helped me with fashion and the like, just did not like going out with me, but that seems to be changing slightly.
I guess i am just lucky in regards to her. She is also my best friend as well. We have been married (9 years this December) and has been by my side thru thick and thick, so i think I will keep this one.
