lovey day

I got a call this morning saying it was a rain day so we wouldnt be working. I looked outside and there is just a slight drizzle that at this point has already subsided. The point of the matter is that even the universe recognizes the vast importance of october 13th and found a way to trick my boss into calling off work so me and my love can spend all day together!!

Wowzers! Seven years. Seven years of coy glances, bad jokes, holding hands, me trying to get her to dance with me, fits and fights, cuddles, thrift store "treasures", childrens laughter and childrens tantrums, cigarettes and coffee, bookstore dates, drive arounds, amarillo trips, basketball games, poems and paintings, a dog and a cat and the cat in the hat, knitted hats, hoodie weather, feeling rich on payday notsomuch in the middle of the week, tax returns, broken down cars, births, renewals, ideas, growing up and never growing old, loving each other more each day, saying shhh every night, saying i love you you are beautiful every morning, watching the drunks bottom out in the giant pothole in the alley, dreams of the future plans of the future, being content in the now, tulsa, eureka springs, a novel, feeling tired but always keeping on, pancakes and reading your emails, a renegade walking stick and the love book, holidays, prayers, celebrations, staring at the moon, looking at the stars, the zoo!!, mowing 7-11 cirklek agrilawn greener grass martin park western lawns, children children and more children popping out all over the place bringing unparalleled joy, always making it, pumkin spice cappuccino nos dr pepper and iced tea, being hermits, koolaid on the floor ramen on the floor chili on the floor poop on the floor crackers on the floor, "think of all the shoes they'll go through!", "quit eating those pretzels." "why?" "because i like telling you what to do.", " i'm an owligator"," you're my bedbunny", "my mom's a tortilla", "is it a bible?", dreads and beards, desktops hilarity, pictures, songs, wednesdays, lost, more talking on the cell phone than working, chili and hot chocolate on snow days, being pregnant seemingly more than not, filling a house with old books and new laughter, patchouli and the knowing that this is just the beginning. Seven of seventy.
