Ok...it was this whole squirrel thing that brought me out of lurkdom a while back, and getting a grip on the rodent problem was PARAMOUNT to me surviving being in an A. AP knows about them and makes every effort to keep them fat & happy because I told him precisely what causes them to run amok.
So, when the little buggers even start to stir around and think they're going to scamper about...I head right towards them..show them who's BIGGER...get on their wheel, run faster...pelt them with corn

I wish I could clean when I have squirrels - most of my squirrels are about other things in my life, not my A LOL, but in general when I have them I hover around the computer (to distract myself) or watch instant netflix or do some other completely useless thing.

Do you guys think that men have squirrels pretty much just as much as we do, or that this is more of a female thing?
They (men) surely must have their moments, but I feel like we suffer from it a lot more than they do.. (again, another evidence of how much harder it is to be a female.. sigh..)Or maybe they just hide it better LOL. :-)
Do you think the squirrels get better when a relationship has been going on for a while and has established patterns?
Are they the worst in the beginning when everything is so new and unsure? ...Or does it become worse over time, as you become closer and closer to each other?
I hate that he has so much power over me.. :S The squirrels make me angry at myself for being so insecure and dependent on someone.. I have been trying to take the 'Buddhist' route, and open my fist, instead of trying to grab desperately but it ain't working much.. ;-)
I managed life ok before he entered my life.. Why can't I just take him as a pleasant plus to my life with a 'whatever happens' attitude, instead of having to turn my life into a squirrel fest?
(Just to add, AP calls me every day, even on week-ends 2-6 times a day. He has told me that he is falling in love with me and he does not like to call me his lover as he keeps saying we are so much more than that.. We have a trip booked for July and he wants to meet all my friends.. Why am i still so freaking insecure, and why do I still dread of losing him? ... :-/)
This brought me out of lurkdom, it was so funny, and timely for me. My squirrels are going crazy, tomorrow will be a week without hearing from him. We are LD anyway and he works insane hours so we often have trouble connecting and at times I just go insane imagining the worst, but I am usually wrong.
I had some wine tonight and buried myself in schoolwork.

They're getting a little restless here, now!
AP is home for the weekend, so as usual, communication is difficult.

Hope everyone's squirrels calm down.
