Wasted Emotions [Writing #6]

Words: 506

Andrew looked at Samantha. He was pacing back and forth in the kitchen of their apartment. “I really can’t believe you, right now. I really can’t.” He shook his head and brushed his hair back. Andrew and Samantha’s marriage had been rocky since he found her in bed with another man.
“I...do you understand that you cheated on me. You threw ten years out the window!”
“Yes. I understand that. And I’m sorry, Andy, but I still think you were wrong for snapping at me like you did at the restaurant.” She remained calm, but Andy was losing his mind.
“After everything you did, are you really asking me to apologize for snapping at you once? You’ve been sleeping with the same guy for almost a year! You- you-” He shook his head. “I think I have a right for reacting the way I did. I...I wanted to make things work, Sam! I did! But you...you wanted to have brunch with the guy you’re fucking? You disgust me! We have been married for ten years! Ten fucking years, Sam!”
“I know, Andy.” The fact that she was so calm only upset him more.
“And I have stayed so faithful. I could never imagine cheating on you. Even now, when you would deserve it the most. I can’t imagine doing that to you, because believe it or not, I love you.”
“Andy-”
“Oh no! Don’t you dare ‘Andy’ me! What the fuck did I ever do to you? What did I do to deserve this? Please inform me.”
“Nothing!” She took a deep breath and looked at him. “You didn’t do anything. Don’t give yourself credit for that. Sleeping with Brett was my decision. And you know why I did? Because he’s hot. No that you’re not hot. You’re always been hot, but...we just don’t have the magic we used to have anymore.”
“What the hell does that even mean?” He asked.
“I am not in love with you anymore! I’m not. I’m being honest.” She seemed so apathetic, and it pissed him off. “I don’t love you anymore This marriage...it was a mistake on my part. I knew we were jumping in too quickly. We were both so young and look how well it turned out.”
“You fucking bitch!” He pulled off his wedding ring and threw it at her.
“Fine.” She shrugged.
“Fuck you.” He didn’t want to be there anymore.
“I’m sorry that it happened this way, but-”
“Fuck you! Fuck this!” He grabbed his coat.
“Where the hell are you going, Andrew?” She asked.
“I am going to talk to my lawyer. I can’t do this anymore, Samantha. We are finished. Over. Ten years down the drain!” He put his coat on.
“Seriously?”
“And don’t worry. It won’t be a messy divorce. You can keep your shit and the fucking apartment. I just want you out of my life. I don’t care what it takes. I just..” He left the apartment without finishing his sentence. They were finished.

Why Blue is the Real Villain of Blue's Big City Adventure

Okay, so maybe "villain" isn't the right word. Blue is more like the antagonist. This post is about the Blues' Clues & You movie Blue's Big City Adventure. So there will be spoilers. If you have Paramount+, it's only an hour watch. I promise it is worth the watch if you have watched Blue's Clues in any capacity. Blue's Big City Adventure poster If you were born in the 90s or early 2000s like me then you most likely watched the original Blue's Clues show hosted by either Steve (Steve Burns) or Joe (Donovan Patton). I have an older and a younger brother, so I got to experience both. However, MY host was Steve, and I am a Steve fan til the day I die. I have Blue's Clues & You playing in the background as I write this post because I realized I haven't watched a single episode of the new series despite watching the movie 6 times. I cannot stress enough how much I love Blue's new design. She looks so much fluffier. The original Blue...

Fangirl Friday: Deleasa

 Heyo! Happy Friday! It's that time of the week when I ramble about someone I love! Today's subject is DJ and producer, Deleasa. His name is Mike Deleasa and while I normally refer to my subjects by first name in these posts, I will be referring to him by his stage name, Deleasa. NOW to understand how I became a fan of Deleasa, we have to go all the way back to 2012, when Kevin and Danielle Jonas' reality show, Married to Jonas  premiered. I bet you're wondering what does this guy have to do with the Jonas Brothers? Deleasa is actually Danielle's brother, making him Kevin's brother-in-law. He was featured in the reality show and I ended up falling in love with him. He was actually my parasocial "rebound" from Joe. You can read all about my parasocial breakup with Joe in my Fangirl Friday about him . But enough about the Jonas Brothers. That's not why we're here. Plus I've already written 30k words about them on this blog. However, I am for...

That Time Rod Stewart Found Other Ways of Doing Cocaine

 Heyo! Happy Monday! This week's That Time... is a doozy. If you're a classic rock fan or a fan of Rod Stewart, you probably know exactly what this post is about. This one is a short one, but an interesting one. So bear with me. Of course need to put a warning about drug use. There are plenty of other posts that you are more than welcome to check out if this isn't your thing. If you are unfamiliar with Rod Stewart, let me introduce you to the ICON! He's a rockstar who also has a few pop bangers. I grew up with his music and can't remember a time in my life without his music. The first song I think of when he pops into my head is "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" . I know it's the most basic song of his, but I have fond memories listening to the song on the radio when I was a kid. He's also dabbled in a few bands, but I am more familiar with his solo work than his bands. Though check out his band, Faces. In 2012, Rod released his autobiography, Rod: The A...
