A long weekend, and a small tribute...

There's something to be said for having a Daddy weekend "ruined" by the child being sick. There's a closeness engendered by being the caretaker.

As long as you don't get sick yourself. (There I go again, tempting fate)

There's a good Daddy feeling, when she comes to me at 2AM because she doesn't feel good. Daddy will always take care of her.




On another note, today is 4 months since my first date with Gina.

And they've been a great 4 months. It's been a constant revelation to me. First, the sheer awesomeness that is Gina, who is one of the most impressive people I've ever met. Smart, funny, sexy, and very together.

But it's also what she brings out in me. I've been a very closed person for all of my life, and that's all changed now. She gives me a safe place emotionally. So, I can allow myself to feel, and not only feel, but indulge my feelings. And actually (gasp) enjoy them. Something I would have thought impossible a very short time ago.

So, thanks, babe. I am so enjoying the ride with you, wherever it takes us. You've given me an incredible gift, the gift of safety and security. And the amazing thing is that you've convinced me that I actually AM safe and secure with you. What an accomplishment.
