Sock Diaries: 12/30/2012

Okay. So I've been procrastinating a little on the Sock Diaries portion of all of this. Last we spoke about my love life, I was telling you about a new woman in my life. Between her wanting to avoid being called out in my public blog (though I assured her that it was read by about all of ten people, of whom I probably know one... that one being her...) and me living a relatively boring life, I've been wanting to avoid this a little.
My life has become pretty routine as of late. No exciting drama from my break-up, no exciting army stuff to report. I get up, I work out with my unit, I shower, I go to work, I get off work I work out at the gym, I come home I watch whatever show I still have stored on my hard drive that I haven't expended, and at the end of the day, I spend time with my new lady friend.
To be honest, things aren't as simple as that on that front. The truth is, we were both broken from break-ups when we came together, and despite the fact that she's helped me get over my ex, she's still having a few issues. She told me recently that she still loves him. That was... not really a surprise. Hopefully, soon, I'll be able to use my time off to give her what she needs. I haven't really been able to do that. We're not diving into a serious relationship, or anything right now, especially with one another. The timing isn't right, and I messed things up before with bad timing. No. We're two broken birds that would only fall faster together
For a while this was mostly about trying to fill that void that was left by my ex, seeing as how writing and working out can only last until about 8PM every damn day. But now, neither one of us knows where the hell it's going. I've begun to really like her. She's challenging and smart and just the right amount of irritating that makes me want to come back for more. She knows me in a way that's more than just knowing what I like and dislike, but why. She digs into that deeper side of me that only comes out in my writing. She's that other side of me that kicks back and tells me to be smarter. The side that says I'm good but I can be better...
*Ahem*
Anyway, back to the point. There's the gym. There's work. And there's a girl. Next, I go to Honduras and we see if I can stay out of trouble in Central America.
