enjoying friendships

I could see the benefits of polygamy if I wasn’t so territorial with my husband. After a fun night with friends last night, playing games, eating and laughing, I was a complete slug today. Hope spent the night and today we grazed, watched the movie Hancock (which surprisingly made a little teary eyed), and played 3 games of scrabble. It was nice to have another person to interact with through the day. John and I don’t always enjoy doing the same things together and someone usually has to sacrifice a little just to make sure that we’re staying connected. It was nice to have a lazy day with John by my side, but having another person to talk to and play with. I could easily go off and do something else with a girl friend, but then I think John will be lonely. I think I would be if the tables were turned. It’s just comforting to do a whole lot of nothing with everyone all together. Maybe that’s why some people like to have lots of children. There’s always someone around. I really cherish my alone time as well, but when I’m old, I may have to have a few room mates if John leaves this earth before I do.
