I can't wait up anymore

Don't wait up for her tonight
cause she won't be coming home
don't wake up till it gets light
by then she'll be long gone

Postcards and letters
Pictures made to last forever
To be boxed up
And tossed away
Nick-Nacs, Souvenirs
In an afternoon
They’re out of here
They disappear without a trace
What they mean to me can never be replaced

I can’t unthink about you
I can’t unfeel your touch
I can’t unhear all the words
Unsay all the things that used to mean so much

I wish I could unremember everything
My hearts been through

In this dance of old songs
Like time they go on and on
I guess I can learn to do the same
I can wake up without you
These two arms not around you
Tell myself it’s meant to be this way

I wish I could unremember
Everything my hearts been through

I don't think those lyrics are complete.

Well hello Anon!
Are the lyrics incomplete or perhaps I put in the parts that fit me at the time? In either case, I gave you enough to find a couple new songs. Have you heard either one or did you just look up the words? I really like Kenny's new one, I've always been a fan and I am pleased that he is still recording music that makes radio play. Thanks for stopping, and for leaving a comment.

I'm confused. Haven't you already moved on as well? Don't you have a girlfriend, one that's already met your kids? If you are ready to move on with your life, that why not dedicate the blog to moving forward, not focusing on the past. The situation may suck, maybe it really isn't what you wanted- who knows. The point is, what's done is done. When life gives you lemons...

If you want to be looked at as father of the year, move on and make nice. Maybe try to accept a little bit of responsibility. Usually, in any situation, I'm willing to admit about 50% of the blame. You accept none. If you were truly so wronged, and if she was as bad as you make her out to be, move on and be happy about it.

Hi S,
Let's see if I can help clear up some of your confusion. Have I moved on? No, I would say I'm doing what feels right from day to day, based on communication from the captain of this ship, I’m just the passenger. A girlfriend that has met my kids? I have several female friends that have met my kids but no, I don’t have a girlfriend, I have a wife. Life goes on; but in what direction? I post to my blog as my feelings dictate at the time. But I don’t feel that I should rub certain details in other people’s faces, I have had it done to me, and I don’t enjoy it; just courtesy I guess. The situation does suck and it isn’t what I wanted (did you really ask that?) I agree, what’s done is done, but I don’t know that this is. Yes, speaking of lemons, you must be feeling a little sour today huh? Those who don’t help to make a situation better are guilty of making it worse. Which one are you?

Father of the year? Let my kids vote, their opinion is the one I care about, and I know I’ll win! Move on and make nice? If I decide that moving on is the right choice, that is exactly what I will do. As far as making nice, that is an option that the future will control as well. Accept some responsibility? (Did you really say that too?) I know that you have kept up on my blogs enough to have read several PAGES of me taking responsibility! If you don’t recall reading it, I’ll put the short version here; I am certainly responsible for at least 50% of our problems prior to September 30th. I was absolutely wronged in this deal. Is she as bad as I make her out to be? I called it how I saw it and the trash talk went both ways. I will not be happy about this situation, there were and still are too many other, better options.

I hope all is well. Thanks for stopping and I hope you get to feeling better soon.

C

you know, even though i agree with your comments about your exwife, there is no need to be a condecending jackass to those of us who are somewhat uncomfortably in the middle.

Anonymous,

What comments of mine are you agreeing with? I don't feel like I was any more condescending in my response than the author was in the original comment. I'm sorry to offend you or Seminole if that is the case. Why not leave your name with your comments?
