off my chest

Colin and I actually just sat and TALKED for an hour and a half. It's been way too mong since we've done that. Not just chit-chat, either. We actually sat there, had coffee and discussed our plans for at least the next year.

I was also able to voice my concerns without either of our voices being raised. It's weird, it's actually easier to 'listen' that way. You wouldn't think so. You think the louder it it, the easier it is to hear someone. Not the case at all.
