1. Do you have "your" side of the bed? Which side?
Well I have a side I prefer, but I don't really care if I sleep on that side or not.
2. How old is your pillow and what condition is it in?
I need a firm, strong pillow. These pillow are about 4 months old. I don't replace them as often as I should. I also like to drive with a pillow on my lap to support my arms. Yeah, I'm lazy.
3. What is your favorite position to sleep in?
Ummm.. I'd like to sleep on my side with one leg bent and all the way up, towards my chest. I move around... a lot so it's not worth it for me cuddle of spoon. I'm ok with it for about 5 mins and then that's it. I have to move.
4. How often do you change your sheets?
Not as often as I should.
5. What helps you fall asleep when insomnia strikes?
Nothing. If it's late enough I just read or watch crappy tv that I don't have to pay attention to. If it's early, then I'll take an excedrine PM and two of those knock me out for a few hours.
6. Does sex make you sleepy or energized?
Depends on the kind/type of sex. If it's sex where I have to put out a lot of energy then sure. I short cat nap is great.
7. What is the minimum amount of sleep that you need to be functional the next day.
Well I need some sleep. So I'd say 4 hours is the minimum that I need to function. However, I'd like to get at least 6, but really prefer 7 hours. I need my sleep. I NEVER pulled an all nighter in college. It wasn't worth it.
Bonus (as in optional):Describe your most vivid dream.
Well the dream that I remember is being in a hotel and there was a tornado coming.
Then.. let's see. Just recently I dreamed that I was trying to get on a train and if left w/o me. Then I caught another one and it turned into a bus. I can't really remember dreams and apparently my dreams are not that awful that I do remember them. I guess they are not that good either.

Rambling
Honestly, with my current boyfriend, he isn't what I signed up for. I think i want more and I dont' think he'll be able to give it to me. For right now it's great, but I don't see this as a lasting thing. I want it to be. I desperatly want it to be, but I don't think he's capable of giving me what I need.
what is is that I need? I need someone that is on par with me. Someone who likes to go out and do things socially as well as recreationally outside. (like walking places or jogging or biking). He isn't able to accept me for my different views on things. I guess maybe in his mind, he is able to do this, but to me, I end up feeling like I lost. When we talk about things and then it goes into discussions and then an argument, I always feel like I lost. I feel like it is me that is going to need to change since he is incapable of it.
He is incapable of it b/c he is satisfied in who he is. I do love that in him, but I wish he was able to at least compromise and try to see things from my view and try to even think about changing.
Also, the way that he talks. His tone of voice as well as how he words things makes him sound like a pompous ass. Someone that is trying to put me down. Although he swears up and down that he is not think that way, it's how it comes across to me. So I always feel like he's talking down to me and that makes me angry so I fight/strike back.
I just don't know if this a forever kind of thing. Is that wrong? Is it wrong to be with someone that you know isn't a forever if it's ok for right now? I have to deal with that every day. For now it's ok. Who knows what tomorrow or next month or next year is going to bring.

Rant
Remember when you called me another woman's name? Yeah, I said I forgave you, but I don't know if I can. It hurt me and I still remember it and I remember the name. You called me Mandy. That's my sister's name. I am not 100% sure it was that name, but regardless it ended in a "y" sound. I don't think i can forget.
TMI Tuesday #200!!!
http://tmituesday.blogspot.com/
1. What is the longest you have been in a monogamous sexual relationship? [For the purpose of this question monogamous is defined as no sexual partners that your significant other does (did) not know about.]
12 years. I was with my HS sweetheart and then we got married. And then it didn't last.
2. If your current relationship would fail, do you have a back-up for physical or emotional comfort?
I do and I don't. I have friends and family that I know I could count on. No one really thinks that the relationship that you are in is going to fail so I think it's bad Karma to think badly about the relationship.
However, with that said, you should always have a plan B in the back of your mind. So I guess that contridicts what I said above.
3. Can you be "just friends" with someone when there is an unrequited sexual attraction?
I think that I could "just be friends" with someone that had a thing for me. Could I be "just friends" with someone that I have a thing for? No. I can't. I know that I am an emotional woman and I get wrapped up into things way too easily.
4. In a assumed monogamous sexual relationship have you ever cheated, been cheated upon or been a knowing third party to the infidelity? [For the purpose of this question monogamous is defined as no sexual partners that a significant other does (did) not know about.]
I basically started the relationship with my current boyfriend while still living with my ex. I don't think that I cheated, but the ex may think differently. I never cheated on the ex the entire time in college, through when he enlisted and even when I was going out and he wasn't. The ex used to travel a lot and I honestly, with my entire being, don't think he ever cheated on em.
As for the knowing party to infidelity? yes! It was a HUGE mess. I had two sets of friends. Couple A was in their 40's and were together for 7 years. They lived next to us. Us were my ex and I and another couple. Couple B. Well woman from couple A and man from Couple B were cheating. It all came out at my house on New Year's Eve. It was awful. I should have kicked the Bitch out of my house from Couple A. She had it coming.
5. Historically, what has caused the most arguments in your relationships?
Bonus (as in optional):What do you want from a partner in a long term relationship?
My current boyfriend and I are totally opposites. I mean that. He likes coke and I like pepsi. I like onions and he only likes them raw. He likes sushi and I don't. It could go on and on and on. However, politics is the main source of our arguments. We have come up with the Brushemi clause though. If we are fighting and know it's not going to end well, then we bust out "Brushemi" and then we walk away.

TMI Tuesday #198
TMI Tuesday #198 - Relationships
1. Family is _Essential and I could not dream of living without my parents and sisters. My mom always told us that we were the best gift they could have ever given us. We didn't believe that back in the day, but now, it rings true.
2. Friends are _people who will tell you an idea is stupid and then support you anyway. They are people that you can bitch to and it's ok.____.
3. Exes are good _for stories? I only really have one ex that matters and we are still friends.
4. Strangers _all have stories. Everyone is someone's daughter or sister or mother and I try not to yell at older people even when they do things that piss me off____.
5. Relationships _suck___ when _you are the only one working at it.
Bonus: Tell us about your first love: My first love was someone that I grew up with in the neighborhood. His name is Matt. *sigh* He is 3 years older then I am. Tall, skinny and he was like "everything" to me at the time. I fought for him hard core. I decided that I wanted him and that was that. I didn't stop until he asked me to Prom.... a week before. He was my first. Get this line I used to get him to sleep with me... We were in FL with his family for a vacation and we would stay up late and then go to the beach in the days. Well, I couldn't sleep and I went down and said to him, "I can't sleep. Do you have anything to put me to sleep?" Yeah. That line. IT totally worked though!!!
Anyway.. so our love affair was like a year long or something. maybe not even that long. He went to college and I was still in HS. I had glasses and braces and well, he was in college. He didn't want to be seen with me. He went away and I never visited him once b/c he didn't let me or really didn't want me. His grandfather passed away and he was home for the funeral and such and said he'd call. He never called. So that was that. He broke up with me by never talking to me again.
We used to hang out and play all the time growing up. It took me three years to be able to talk to him again. We were friends again and then he went and cheated with the next door neighbor who is way older and now they are married. Fun!
