Life is beautiful right now. I breezed through my second interview with the veterinary clinic this afternoon (although a message on my machine requiring that I call the manager back in the morning has shaken my confidence a bit), and am looking forward to beginning that first quivering step towards my ultimate goal.

Even after some uncomfortable, tired bickering in the past few days, we still fit. We still work. We still want to communicate, want to spend time together. It's wonderful, that. Renews my faith in the whole system of monogamy.

I think I've finally been able to shake my past. I used to be almost fanatical about it, needing to go over and over every little error I've ever made. Every mistake became disproportionately huge in my eyes. I've stopped that, and it's wonderful. I've made mistakes. Hell, everyone has. The trick is not to dwell in them. I've learned from them, I've become stronger. I'm proud of who I am and what I've accomplished in my life thus far.

That's all for tonight. Not a lot to write about. :)

But, I must add, the most wonderful thing in the world is listening to his breathy voice say "I love the way you breathe" as we make love on my bed, knowing we both should be asleep so we're not horrifically tired the next day. We were, for the record, and it was worth every dark circle. Thank god for power outages.
