Though I said I never would, I'll be Yours.


Wonderful weekends always bring me to the same place: two steps closer to sanity sitting in my bed anxiously awaiting what the next five days will hold.

What does this week hold any how?
-media quiz (what happened in the world last week anyway?)
-academic advisement
-nutrition analysis
-laundry
-To-Do lists
-The Real World (yes, it's a priority)
-Depart at DFW
-Arrive at LAX

That's right. This week ends with the sunset breaking through a cloudy California sky. This girl is going to California for a much needed vacation.

And now that I've gotten all practicalities out of the way, how about story time?

I have this dream sometimes, and you don't know that you're in it.
That's OK though... you'll know someday.
It's a few years from now,
and all those insecurities we once felt are shadows in the past.
You're taller than me, so I wear heels all the time.
We fight so much, and I like to look you in the eye.
We're that couple that I've always made fun of...
You've seen them, so unaware and absent-minded of anything but the other. It's sickening.
We go to record stores and eat chinese takeout because I can't cook.
I try really hard to cook for you, but all I can make is brownies so sometimes we have those for dinner.
You've been wearing your glasses lately,
and I got a haircut with bangs.
We look funny dearest...
Dearest...I don't call you that very often... only on days when I am unexplainably happy...
We fell asleep on the balcony again.
We should really get better outdoor furniture if this is going to become a habit...
And then It will rain for days...
I'll be angry with you, and you won't leave me alone. You know I don't want you to.
You'll hold me even though I scream, and I'll come back to you.
I always do.
The sun will come out,
And we'll have breakfast outside at Fluffy's. Two eggs on toast...
We'll laugh, and smile, and thank the strange universe
because our dreams have come true...


And as our story time concludes,
I bid you Goodnight.
