I was talking to a good friend the other night on the phone. It was really exciting to talk to this person because she had been trying to get a hold of me for about a week. I told her a long time ago that whenever she gets a boyfriend that I better not find out from Facebook, twitter or something else. I want to hear it from her! So naturally, the day has come and she let me know.
At first thought, I was listening to her tell me the story all gitty and smiling from ear to ear, I just kind of shook my head on the other end of the phone. But then something hit me. What a fun time for my friend and her new boyfriend. They are starting in the honeymoon stage of a relationship! I got to tell her how this is one of the best times of a relationship. I still remember the first month of my and Em's relationship, and let's be real it was the jam! Ours was a little different then most, because the first month of us intentionally being interested in one another--we were half way across the US from each other. So this was all over the phone. Nonetheless, it was euphoric (haha what a great word, totally wrong word but come on, if I was writing an SAT essay, I'd for sure get a 12)
Here are some memories from that first month or two of us:
1. I was flying out of OKC at the end of school in May. I met Em about a month prior to me leaving, and I didn't want to leave. I was suppose to leave for OKC in the morning. But I ended up climbing in my car at like 9pm to leave Waco for OKC. Guess why I left so late?...yeah I was a little distracted. Home girl caught my eye and my attention.
2. On my drive to OKC, I got calls every hour on the hour from Em and her best friend Katy. They were calling from Katy's phone to "check in". Funny that it was only Em who did the "checking in"!
3. I got a package from her in the mail over the summer with a little note in it from her...hand written of course.
4. We went to see the "crookedest street" (self proclaimed name by Em and Katy) in SF.--That would be Lomard St.
5. Our first kiss, probably a little early, happening at 2am in the hallway of my house in California. What can I say? I'm trigger happy!
_______
All in all, it's cool to come full circle and feel like I am back in the honeymoon stage again with Em. No joke, for someone reason this whole engagement process has been nothing short of just another spark in our relationship.
All I know is I'm excited to make all kinds of memories with Em just like these listed for the rest of our lives.
