What is one to do when her boyfriend dumps her, AND finds he has immediately shacked up again? So much for recovery time. That's about the fastest I've seen Rocky move on anything, ever. "Sigh". Well if you're anything like me, you would have a good cry, wave goodbye to all sense of trust and dignity, call your best friends who will always be there to scrape you off the floor.....and then go buy a truck.
Two weeks ago Rocky and I began the process of amicably parting ways and divvying up the life we had built together for 3 years. Sad, yes but hey, he was so consoling I figured he was hurting just the same as me. I mean, I just had 6 more months to go before graduating and was ready to move our collective life along in a beautiful place to perpetuate the tradition of porch coffee.
But it was not to be. Alaska is cold and a close friend's body heat is absolutely necessary right? Never mind that we had made a go of it for years and the light of graduation was at the end of the tunnel. Once that bit of knowledge was dropped, I couldn't get the checkbook out fast enough to separate myself from all dependencies. Thanks for the lesson Rocky, duly noted. And you better thank your stars that I didn't just load up the Subaru and park it on the side of the highway :)
And for me? Friends are vital and moms are rockstars. I'm allowed to be snarky and sad for a spell, but I'll enjoy being snarky a whole lot more in my truck.

Are you singing, Happy Birthday to Me? Wear your awesome sunglasses, let hair blow out the window and crank up your favorite tunes! May I suggest Carly Simon; "Your so Vain"? Oh a corgi would look perfect in the passenger jump seat :)
