Tuesday nights in Midland, TX...

From reading my blog I am sure you understand Midland is a fairly boring town. Population almost 100,000, and if you count Odessa right at about 200,000 you would think there would be more to do. Unforturnately, No...

What most do on Tuesday, wait take that back... What most single red necks (minus my friends and myself of course)do on Tuesday night is $1 Beer at "The Ranch". The Ranch is the local country bar most people go to dance, play pool, and get drunk. Typical bar. At least a typical bar in theses parts. I of course found myself at The Ranch last night. One of my good friends was having her birthday party there. Hey, don't judge, it was a good way to get a cheap buzz. However the beer is so cheap that the next day, even if you just had one, you are going to have a headache.

Well I am having a good time. Dancing a bit with some friends. Drinking cheap beer. And talking. When all of the sudden I get that dreaded feeling in the pit of my stomach. The ex. The one that hurt me. Now I know what your thinking, "why is she not over this guy yet", but what you don't understand is that I am over him. Most don't want to admit it but anytime you see an ex, your stomach does a little turn. My stomach still turns when I see my old high school sweet heart. It is just something that happens, you really have no control over it. But it leads me to some questions... Why do ex-relationships make our stomachs' turn? Why is it even months or years later a single person can have that type of effect on someone?
