Warning: this post may get corny.
So, I love spontaneity, right? I mean, hey, I certainly don't talk about it enough. If you searched through all of my posts you wouldn't see anything about being spontaneous {sarcasm hand}. Guess who knows that I love unpremeditated acts? Alex. That boy can be as oblivious as a rock at times but he can also be very perceptive and insanely thoughtful.
*ahem*
It's about four thirty and I had barely done anything all day. I left the house once to take out the trash and the rest of my evening was shaping up to be exactly the same. Lounge around and do homework, maybe clean. I saw Mitch and JJ last night, Alex was at a family party, and I don't really have any other friends, haha. So around 430 my head starts hurting. Something about staring at my laptop screen for too long and eating yogurt.. I dunno. So I crawl in bed. 515 I get a text from Alex, "so what are you up to today?" And I drearily respond, "laying around. my head hurts." Seconds later.. a knock at the door. Me being half asleep sure as heck didn't care until Kyla opened the door and I heard.. Alex's voice! There was an audible gasp on my part and I clumsily crawled down my ladder and ran down the hall. There he was! He came and surprised me! Now, that isn't to say that I hadn't daydreamed extensively about him coming and surprising me, sweeping me off my feet, and riding off into the sunset on a white horse.. but I certainly hadn't expected it in any reality. Yet, there he was. :) We sat and talked for a while, I cooked dinner {scrambled eggs and toast.. I was feeling lame and breakfast-y}, and then we went over to Jake's house and hung out talking and laughing and watching tv until midnight. At which point my sweet boy took me home.
I'm pretty awful at goodbyes and one of my least favorite things to hear is, "I'll see you soon." Yeah, God be with you till we meet again and all. :\
But, ya know what? I had a good day lounging around without him and an even better day hanging out with him after he surprised me. I durn love surprises like that. It was so sweet and I was so happy! Regardless of the fact that I still felt groggy for a while after he arrived and I was pretty emotional all evening {poor kid, I'm not sure he understands completely what he's gotten himself into}, I had a lovely time.
I love surprises. I love this guy. I love my life.
