OK OK OK FLU not FLUE!

Yes I knew that but I am a man and therfore I get to make mistakes just so I can be corrected.

I received an email today from Ticketmaster. The concert has been rescheduled for Sunday April 6th. I sent Cindy a message and told her, she responded with "It’s a date."  I don’t know but I’m beginning to think she likes me a little if she is willing to accept a date 3 months in advance. Wait a minute, I didn’t ask her if she wanted to go with me. I just told her when the concert was rescheduled to. Hmmmmm….   I guess she just wanted to let me know that if  I was going she was going and I couldn’t take anyone else.  Of course… I wouldn’t have it any other way.

The past few days have been great. I picked Cindy up on Thursday morning and we left for the concert. We were together every second until I had to leave at 5 AM Monday morning for work. We stopped by my house on the way back to hers on Friday. We went over to my parents house and she met them for the first time. I think they will get along fine. On Sunday we went over to her sisters house for a birthday party for her 4 yr old neice. We came back home then and enjoyed some alone time since her daughter was gone with her father somewhere. Although it’s nothing new, we talked about a few serious things between us. Ironically, they are not serious things unless we make them serious things and that was what  the conversation was about. We talk all the time about EVERYTHING… and I do mean EVERYTHING!   

Leaving for work Monday was really difficult. By  the time I was two blocks from the house I started wishing it was Thursday again and that we could start the whole weekend over. I couldn’t  stand it and by mid-morning I was on the phone ordering flowers for her. When the lady at the florist asked what to put on the card I didn’t know what to say, or better yet, I didn’t know how to condense it  to just a few words for a card. After a few questions from the florist I settled on, "Just thinking of you".  But it wasn’t really the truth. The truth is….

Just Think?

How can I just THINK of you
when my  whole body comes alive?
How can I just THINK of you
with my  heart  pounding deep inside?

How can I just think of YOU
when now WE are in love?
How can I just think of YOU
when WE fit like a glove?

How can I just think OF you?
Without thinking OF our love?
