waiting in vain

Week's almost done, and tonight I pack for the beach. After so many recent trips, it's down to a science by now. Gurl and I leave at 7:30 tomorrow morning to beat the rush to Cape Hatteras. I hope the roads aren't too crazy. We're stopping at the Great Dismal Swamp to stretch our legs. I'll take pictures for y'all.

I was at Ghuirelle's house earlier this week and he popped in Medeusa. Annie Lennox (and Bob) seem to have already sang what's been going on in my mind with Dreamy Ron. All my time away for the weekends has be in the doghouse, yet I've been told to continue to keep my distance. How far? How long? I'm reminded of Grover's 'Near - Far' skit on Sesame Street, where he's running towards, then away from the camera to demonstrate the concepts of distance, getting more exasperated with each lap.

i'm down with grover's frustrationFrom the very first time I rest my eyes on you, boy
My heart said follow through
But I know now that I'm way down on your line
But the waiting feeling's fine

So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
Because I know how to do my thing
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
I wanna know when you're gotta come, you see

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
'Cause summer is here - and I'm still waiting there
Winter is here - and I'm still waiting there

Like I said -
It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door
And still I can knock some more
Ooh boy, ooh boy - is it crazy look, I wanna know now
For I to knock some more

If he's telling you to keep keeping your distance, then it sounds like you need to walk away. You deserve better.
