I knew it must have been coming because of my behaviour but I didn't realise it was right now. It's why I'm speeding and not eating and being hyper and just strange. Manic. When I'm like this I am me, but a weird slightly disconnected me. Impulsive and not always in a good way. I find it hard to express what I'm thinking and feeling as well and tend to do it physically instead of with words which is strange because usually I am best "talking it out".
But as I drove home tonight in the misty greyness and over rolling green hills (I had to pick up the Elfling from 150km away and drive home) I was listening to one of my favourite CDs (Triple J's Hottest 100 2007) and then just as I was pulling into Moggill before home came this song... and I wanted to cry because this is exactly how I feel about my husband.

Lyrics below
"Chasing Cars"
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I just love the way some lyricists (sp?) can capture emotions so well with their words. That song has always touched me.
