He's Just So Groovy!!!!

My husband to be is "da bomb" and I'm the whole "shabang." We're going to be an explosive match.
*yeah, I know that's a groaner, but so what it's my blog*

I love that he thinks he's going to wear crocks and sag to the wedding! He better not, but I think it's funny and he'll prolly actually try to.


Sometimes he uses big words I've never heard before and I have to look them up to find out what the crap he's talking about. It makes me laugh at myself.

I have 2 wedding dresses and instead of freakin out about how utterly crazy that is... even to me.. he said... wear one at the ceremony and the other at the reception! Aww! That made me stop feeling foolish about buying the 2nd one :)


When I asked him if we were doing traditional vows or our own... he said he was gonna rap his over the instrumental of "my posse's on broadway." (this still cracks me up!)


I told him I wanted a chicken wing bar and a smoothie bar for the reception and he's down with that!
I said I was gonna pinch him to make sure he was real. He said he was gonna bite me cuz he heard love taste like chicken. (we both like chicken)

When I said to him "what are you gonna do with a night owl wife?" and he said... "tell her goodnight!" lol

I have 2 messages on my phone of him singing to me :) That is EPIC!

My father showed up in town on his door step to check him out and he handled it flawlessly. My parents shock tactics dont phase him one bit.

His family feels like some of the missing pieces to my family and that's really cooliosis.

Him understands me gobbly goop tongue tied words n stuff.

We got us some smart daughters. (I bet they don't have to look up them big ole words lol)


He gets over stuff really fast with no grudges where it may take me a day or two.

On valentine's day I asked him if he was gonna be my valentine and he said "always."

He speaks some french. I don't understand it, but it's HOT!

He makes me laugh, shows me love, and feels like home.

Somebody Tried to Make Me A Widow...

I got a phone call yesterday morning about 9:50.

"Hey baby, What's up?" I say
"Well nothing... NOW!" said the man
"Now? Something was up before?" I respond.
"Actually... yes" he said.

sort of went through what could actually go wrong...
Week one, sewer backing up into the apartments
Week two, calling the cops for drug use of tenants
week three, court and evictions
week four, Nothing too much going on
Week five, Snowed in at the office
Week six, two of the units catch fire
Week Seven, TBA

Seriously what else could go wrong? Just about anything that can go wrong already has, right?

Yeah... not so much. Ok back to our phone conversation:

"Actually... yes" he said.
"what was up earlier" I said... a little peak in my curiosity.
"well" he said.... " I don't want you to freak out or anything...."

HOLD UP, WAIT A MINUTE!

Ladies are those not prime choice words to let you know that something happened and you're about to freak out? Yeah, that line just has "FREAK THE HELL OUT" all over it!

Ok back to the convo... :
"Actually... yes" he said. "but remember those 2 tenants I told you I had to evict last week?"
"I remember" I said.
"one went smoothly, no problems. The other we thought was going ok. But the lady who got evicted this morning, pulled out an gun and shot a me .... I'm fine luckily I...."

"WHAT???" I said?
Hold up. Hold up. HOLD UP! The rest of the conversation was fuzzy after that. I'm not sure what I said. I could hear him say something about... "police are looking for her, they have the k-9 unit here trying to track her... blah... blah... blah..."

I seriously don't know what he really said after that. It's like my mind left me for the rest of the day.

I couldn't tell you what I responded. I wanted details, more details. Next thing I know he had to go and talk to the police again he said he's call me later so we ended the call.
I held the phone for about 10 minutes. I felt it was the ONLY link I had to talking with the man. Tears silently rolled down my cheek. I bowed my head and said a prayer of thanks for protecting him.
Most of the day I did my thing in silence. No radio, tv or any thing. I needed to sit in stillness and quiet because I couldn't wrap my head around the fact someone tried to make me a widow before I've even become a wife. I'm just not cool with that. My mind was reeling:

What if she comes back and tried to finish him off?
Am I supposed to be ok with him walking into the office tomorrow after all this?
There's ALOT going on with his job in just 6 weeks Is God trying to point him in another direction?

I let the assurance from the Holy Spirit of the Lord speak to my heart that everything was ok.
It would be another 5 hours before I heard from him.
By this time he was business as usual. One thing about The Man... he's very good about leaving things of the passed in the passed. For him, it was over and done with, time to move on. I really admire that about him, that he can let go and move on so easily. I'm hoping some of it rubs off. I'll worry every day if some psycho is going to try and knock him off.
*sigh* There's not much I can do about it. Apparently I have no say so in the matter. And I have very little influence being on the west coast and all.

This love stuff is difficult. You start to think in terms of WE instead of me and US instead of I. Yesterday I realized in a while my life will not be just my own. What happens to me will effect the family. The choices I make good or bad will effect the man. The choices he will make effects me. It matters. It should. Because if I didn't care so much it wouldn't matter, right? RIGHT!

All that being said, the Man is just fine. Went to work today without incident. (or at least I haven't been told of any. I'll check his other blogs later for the omitted details ;)

I didn't realize how much I loved him until the scenario of possibly losing him surfaced.


Be careful out there baby.

The Addams Family???? *click! click!*

My Alter Ego???



I'm texting The man this morning as per routine: "Good morning, have a good day, love you.. b lah blah blah.." u know the bleary eyed early morning usual.


He told me I probably wouldn't hear much from him today because he was doing some training. My heart sank a little but not too much.

So I said "tell me you love me and I'd be ok with that. " You know how we women are... trying to see what limits we can push for the day. I was partially joking expecting a " girl, you know i do." or "of course."

I must say this: anything I've asked of the man has more than EXCEEDED my expectations. It's all been above and beyond and I don't think he even tries, it feels like the most natural thing in the world for him to go above and beyond my expectations just by simply existing.

Ok to some of you, this is going to be a "Roll eyes insert GAG moment" but I don't care, it's my blog. You can leave now and try again next week if you don't like it. :-P

Anyway, back to my story. About 10 minutes after I sent him my request I got a text back.
"Te Amor" Awwwwwww Spanish! I liked it. It made my heart flip! That's nice.

A few minutes after that I got this message: "Je T'aime Vous :)"

NO WAY, FRENCH! THAT IS FRENCH! I thought I had to sit down.
Ok now keep in mind I'm a pretty rough cut girl. Not butch or anything, a little tomboyish with some jock mixed in but I tend to clean up pretty well and know when to be a woman. I'm clumbsy, clutsy, awkward and I would bumble THE MOST romantic moments if given the chance.

I saw that French and I don't know WHAT happened to me! The funny thing is I work for an international company and hear french accents all the time. They bother me because there is usually an amount of arrogance behind them. It's typical for me to roll my eyes and groan inwardly when I encounter that accent.

But OH .MY. FREAKIN. GOODNESS! I have been on Cloud 9, 10 AND 11 ALL today.

I turned into Morticia from the Addams family. Who knew the man could spit mad game IN FRENCH! Gotta tell ya, ladies, I'm feeling mighty blessed right now!

Yesterday he said those magic words I've been waiting for a man to say to me all my adult life:
"Baby, you cook and I'll do the dishes!" That's sooooooo Hot and Sexy to me!
That, my friends is a DONE DEAL!

OH MAN! I wonder if I can get him to say it in FRENCH!?????
(I'd prolly faint)
