Oh, How I Remember
Posted on April 8, 2012 12:00AM
Logan is chopping the basil to smithereens, and the strong scent of herbs permeates the condo, overpowering the oily smell of the Parmesan-loaded chicken breasts. The condo smells great and homey. It smells of domestication, the smell I find myself wanting to run away from for as long as I can...
Two years and counting in a happy relationship, and still I ask myself, "What led me here?" -
How Did I Get Here?
Posted on April 7, 2012 12:00AM
A few days after the wedding, I sat resting on the new couch we bought at some store in SM Megamall a few weeks back, slowly sipping red wine from a glass in my right hand while watching Logan prepare pesto pasta with Parmesan chicken for dinner.
Logan's not a chef. He doesn't have the patience to measure key ingredients precisely, leaving his dishes either salty or bland. But the guy cooks with herbs, and you know what they say: When someone cooks with herbs, he knows what he's doing. With Logan, well...almost.
At this moment, he's cracking eggs against a small glass bowl we bought at SM Megamall. I see him throw the egg shells down the sink, not minding the small trash bin I placed beside it. Men are kind of barbaric, aren't they?
The pasta is almost cooked. Since Logan doesn't have the multitasking ability most chefs and all women have, I see him panic a bit, not sure what to do first--fry the chicken or check on the pasta? I would help him, but since he's on kitchen duty today and he's trying really hard to impress me, well, just call me when it's dinnertime.
As I watch Logan make a mess in the small kitchen I like to keep immaculately clean and showroom-worthy, I ask myself, Now, how did I get here?
It's been, what, almost three years since Cosmo published the very first Bedroom Blog by Veronica entry back in 2009. Three years, huh? Though the stories I wrote are not limited to the years I spent writing this blog, three years is a big deal. This blog has been around even longer than my relationship with Logan or anyone else for that matter (romantically, at least). And I'd like to think it's lasted longer than my infatuation with Matt. I daresay Bedroom Blog by Veronica is my longest affair to date.

A Woman Scorned
Posted on November 27, 2011 12:00AM
A week had passed since that disastrous night in Greenbelt 3--when Matt ditched me for the nth time, and Charlie slapped me across the face in disgust--and also to bring me back to my senses.
I spent that week brewing evil plans in my head. I burned every freaking journal I wrote during all those years I labeled "magical." I deleted all Facebook contacts I only added because of him. I wrote my articles with the speed and focus of a scorned woman, and I spent my free time daydreaming about what I would do to the man if, by any chance, our paths crossed again. I was seriously considering using pepper spray.
Yes, I was angry.
I was really, really angry.
And it actually felt good to finally release all that pent up anger I never thought I had. -
"I'm Sorry, Charlie"

At first I thought it was an illusion designed to make me feel more horrible than I already did. But no, it wasn't an illusion. Charlie was actually there.- Innocence Gone

When the waiter handed me the bill, he had to tap me twice on the shoulder to check that I wasn't lost in a trance. I opened my purse, handed him some crisp bills, and proceeded to watch my past run wild in my head. - Innocence Gone
