Day 201 of San Diego

I feel relieved. I feel like a thousand pounds of anxiety, guilt, and frustration has lifted off of my shoulders. I can safely say that I am doing well. Spectacular, actually. :)

Before today I was judging Mason, believing he didn't want to Skype me anymore. His gaming minutes turned into hours and he didn't stop even when the clock struck nine. For you outsiders, we generally Skype at nine until ten. But for a couple of days now, he had been going over nine o'clock to play video games. I panicked. I thought Mason was suddenly falling out of love for me. I thought he didn't care as much as I did about Skyping!

Finally, I couldn't take it anymore. I couldn't build up these unwanted feelings to soon blow up on Mason. I needed to tell Mason how I felt and how we can clean up the mess.

We've decided to calm the texting during work hours. We will have conversations after work; during IMVU and over Skype. Of course, we'll text each other a "Hello" or a "How are you," but if we waited on conversing until later, we would have so much to talk about!

Also, Mason realized how badly it hurt me with him going overtime on our Skyping time. He agreed to watch his gaming, yet also asked if we could be more lenient on the time. Say, eight to nine. Or ten to eleven. Or... something longer, like two hours. I said that that sounded like a great idea.

I expressed to him my fears and worries. He understood why I felt that way, but assured me that my assumptions were dead wrong.

Thank the heavens.

Mason even cleared fears that I didn't bring up. He simply said them and claimed they weren't existent and I felt refreshed.

I'm glad I suggested to talk to Mason about what was going on in my mind. I was worrying about our relationship. I love Mason very much. The last thing I want to do is leave him. <3

Besides the discussion between Mason and I, I took my NUTR "final!" I feel like I passed. Nowhere close to an A grade, though. Which is fine. I just want to pass with a B. A C is okay. But I prefer a B or an A.

After test taking, I had lunch with Mason's mom. She missed me and I missed her. Sid especially missed me. The dog practically knocked me over he was SUPER HAPPY! He kept jumping on me and whining and spinning in circles. Such a spazz. But we love him.

After lunch, I came home. I took a walk, talked to my Brazilian friend, then talked to Mason. We're still on Skype. Mason's falling asleep. That's fine with me. I'm just glad we got things taken care of.
