it's only in the night you realize

your playlists speak volumes, like mini glimpses into your soul. much like my face shows  expression that is much more telling than i might care to admit. evidently my face has no secrets. but what good would secrets really be without someone to share them with?

dear boyfriend

i love dry cereal straight from the box. in fact it once was my road trip drug of choice. if you add chocolate chips to the mix, it puts me over the top. when you are away i often eat standing, on one leg, in the kitchen. sometimes straight from the box. i call it my secret single behavior, except i would do it in front of you. i feel certain you will still love me. in fact you might even love me more.

love, your manners are charming but who are you fooling girlfriend,

me

dear boyfriend

they make me smile. just as you make me smile.

love, your i am so ready to be your wife it hurts girlfriend,

me

dear boyfriend

i miss you when you are gone. when the house is a big empty box. without you, it is not a home. the moment you walk out that door, i launch myself back in bed, throw the covers over my head and breathe in the scent of you that is sure to fade away before your return.

love, your i have never been this in love in all my life until now, girlfriend.

dear someday husband

i hate your laptop bag. the mere sight of it throws me into a tizzy. perhaps that is unfair to the bag. its never done anything to me, it is merely an inanimate object. But you, you are so much more than that. you happen to be my world.

and that bag walks with you right out our door for days, maybe weeks.

i hate that bag.

love, your i'm sorry for blubbering all over you at the airport in such a girl fashion, one day wife.

dear boyfriend

I just got my @ss kicked.

At the gym.

By yours truly.

It's too early for the verdict.

The jury is out.

But I think I liked it.

I'll be sure to report back.

That is if I can walk.

BUT

Don't be surprised if you find me in the fetal position

Cradling chocolate.


love, your i know no limits girlfriend,


me
