About a month ago...

This is me reading this in a sing song voice, trying to mimic those guys that sang the valentine song. Only this time, it isn't a happy love story, it's a reflection.

I think that things don't just go sour over night (unless it's food, lol). Like how they say it in Community Dental Health, there's the Pre-Contemplation phase, Contemplation phase, Action Phase, Maintenance Phase, then Relapse. When I talk like this, I'm tempted to believe that I'm actually an intelligent person (lol, again). Sad to say that as at the time of writing this report, we've gone through all 5 phases and now we're back to Action Phase.


So, back to where my story began.

About a month ago, I received with great shock, a committee of emotions that sent me spiraling down the stairs into a state that was near catatonic. You're probably wondering what happened to me, right? I'll tell you. I'd assumed that everyone had the same thought process as I did, so when I went seeking QT from Ammi, I wasn't prepared for the cold morning after. What do you mean "it's nothing, don't worry? " You spun 360° in less than a minute and you're telling me to not worry! O for Odacity!


Shebi I should have learned my lesson and carried on with my life? But there's me that wants to hold on till the end. (Endurance ati long suffering bawo?) Now I'm here, thinking back on all those times that were great and wondering where they went. How did we go from tds x 52/52 to once in two days with a sprinkle of strain? Now we've entered maintenance stage and I'm getting a slow IV infusion of politeness. God please!


About a month ago, you were in contemplation phase, wondering how best to take this ship to the harbor and dock it for good (or consider if you could keep it and cruise around the world in it).

Now we're here. Having gone past the remaining 3 stages in the course of the month, we're back, not to where we started, but the one phase that makes it solid. Maintenance.


This time, there's just one thing to say (ask Faveszn)

If you're gonna let me down, let me down gently

Don't pretend that you don't want me

Our love ain't water under the bridge (Adele's right!)
