Romance is alive and well...

Romance is alive and well...

I don't know how many of you know this but my boyfriend lives 1200 miles away and we only see each other every 6 weeks or so but we had planned on not seeing each other again until October (for many reasons).
I've often daydreamed about walking up my stairs and seeing him standing there waiting for me or opening my door one day and have him standing there, smiling. I've never thought it would ever happen because life just isn't that romantic....not until today.

As you can see in my previous post, I didn't sleep much last night so by the time I did get to sleep I stayed in bed until 2 or 2:30pm. I then got up and continued to be a lazy ass, sitting at my computer, dinking around.
A little while later my cell phone rang and it was my beloved boyfriend. This isn't unusual, he calls me during the day just to hear my voice sometimes.
He said something strange this time, "Do me a favor and open your front door." In the second it took to walk to my door, I was thinking he must have sent flowers and expected them to be sitting on my door step. I opened the door, no flowers were there and I thought quickly, "He's going to be PISSED that the flowers didn't arrive."
I then looked further and there he was....walking towards me, holding a bouquet of pink carnations.
I couldn't fucking believe my eyes. Here he was....AT MY DOOR!
It was a bit of a blur but I think I screamed, "OH MY GOD" a few times and threw myself into his arms. It was UBER romantic!
Things like this only happen in the movies, except that in the movies, the woman's house is clean and she's showered and brushed her teeth, all of which did NOT apply to me.
He's a saint, though. He doesn't care about all that!

So, ladies and gentlemen, my man is here for 9 glorious days!!

It IS a Happy Fourth of July....now, excuse us while we go make our OWN fireworks!
