It’s that time of year again… NoJoMo!
Lesson: Memories are a precious gift.
I’m so happy NoJoMo is back! I totally forgot it was starting. Thanks for all my OD friends for reminding me! One entry a day here I come!
We had an old friend visit this weekend. Our old roommate Kyle and his new wife. Mark and Kyle and I only lived together for a semester, but it was fun. That was a good semester. He graduated before I did and moved away, like most everyone at our school does. He met a girl online and less then a year later, they got married. I have to pray to take my envy away. I’m happy he’s happy. It boggles my mind to think when we were roommates, he was Mr. One Night Stand and then as soon as he moved away he was Mr. Will You Marry Me? I guess when you know, you know.
They were wonderful house guests. It was really nice having them. We met Friday night at my favorite (and only) Mexician resturant in town. Then home for a couple beers and a little getting to know each other. Saturday we went to our college football game and sat in the RAIN for the whole first half. Mark’s mom and step dad came and you know I always love when they come. It’s great conversation with great company. I had a cheap 88 cent poncho from walmart and an umbrella but my toes and whole pant leg were soaked. I was freezing, but we stayed for the whole losing game. Our team just can’t seem to win.
It was Halloween last night, but we didn’t have costumes and felt silly going to the bar without one. Kyle bought him self a mullett and wore it at the game and the whole night at the house. We just stayed home and got drunk and played gutiar hero. I had never played before, but Mark and I just bought it. The first time I tried, I just couldn’t do it! It was so annoying. I was drunk and off beat and just couldn’t get my two hands to work together. Mark was booing me and I was laughing at myself. Finally by my second song I was starting to get the hang of it, but only finished one song the whole night. I still sucked. Mark was bothering the shit out of me since I wasn’t very good and every one else was. After that, he was getting all my nerves for the rest of the night, but I still had fun and tried to hide that I was a bit upset. I hope it actually worked. When we got into bed we were both a little drunk and I told him to be nicer to me when I’m trying to do something and told him how he was annoying the hell out of me. Then it started this whole conversation about our relationship and how we love each other. I basically told him that I want to be with him forever, and even though I "know" he wants to be with me too, I need to hear it sometimes. I just want to make sure we have a future together so I don’t get nervous we’re not on the same page anymore. We’re going to be okay. I think part of the problem is I think I’m starting to think a lot about marriage and everyone around us is getting engaged. I’m ready for that too. I actually can’t wait for it lol. But what girl can’t say the same? I remember last year when people would ask us, I’d say we’re just not ready, but now a year later, I feel like I am ready and from our conversation last night, I think he is too. Then we had amazing sex last night and again this morning. Haha, classic.
