thanks. that makes a lot of sense. he has also made jokes, what i thought were jokes, about how i play piano, guitar, bass, trumpet and sing and he has no musical talent. but maybe only part of that was joking. it comforts me to know that you and your husband went through the same thing and did okay. we do have similar interests but typically those interests cost money which we dont have a lot of. and it seems like our schedules are always so backwards.

but my mom is helping us out with half our rent during spring semester so we can save up some money so that hopefully next fall we wont have to work so much. because i remember when we first moved down here and neither of us had a job we spent like 3 weeks filling out apps and for those 3 weeks it was like we were in heaven just being around each other all day.

im going to make him some banana bread so maybe hell be more likely to talk about it lol. (i was told to add more chocolate chips this time).

thanks again. you really made me feel better about everything.
