The pondering of an insomniac

Sometimes I wonder if my life would be better without you.  I would live solely for myself and all the decisions in my life would be just for me.  Mine.  All mine.  I wouldn't save coins so that we'd have extra money for renting movies.  I'd use them all to buy lollipops.  I wouldn't buy a large order of rice every single day.  In fact, I wouldn't eat rice at all.  I would live off of Hamburger Helper and Swiss Chalet and I'd never worry if you liked the food we were eating.  I would not save all my white laundry so we could it together.  Without you, I'd wash a white sock by itself if I wanted to.

But I love you.  And I like making decisions together.

And as I sit here, at three in the morning, wondering why you won't answer my call, I admit that I'm happy with you.  As much as I deny it, as much as I tell myself that my ex is the true love of my life, I know that it all ends with you.  Because I like renting movies and I can stand rice and I like to save on detergent.  But life is good with you.  

So answer your phone so I can go to bed.
