At this ungodly hour…

I am missing you.

Oh so lonely.

Valentines Day

For the most part, I am neither here nor there when it comes to Valentines Day.  I never hated it while single and I sure wouldn’t say it is my most favorite holiday of the year now that I have been taken for over 5 years.

The best part of the day is that I get to spend it with the person I love.  The main reason why I am impartial to Valentine’s Day is because Michael and I show each other love every day (or well I like to think so).

So this year we decided not to do presents and just went for a nice Greek dinner.  We went to this tiny place near his house on 17th, called Spiro’s.  I must say, I felt as if we dined with everyone else in the restaurant because it was so tiny and so packed!  Like wall-to-wall tables!  Off the bat, we did not get very good service (in fact Michael had to actually flag down a member of staff and ask who our server was, and she had no clue either – yes very irritating!!!!), but the food was excellent.  Good portions and (after actually ordering) not long of a wait at all.  If you ever go there you must try the cheesecake – it is to DIE for!

Oh another note, we are attending Armin Van Buuren in April at Flames Central.  So I am super excited for that!

I’m sort of all over the place in this post… so please don’t mind me.  :D

Onto the next…  I have officially kicked off reading week.  So I have a week to relax, or read, or study.  I hope to relax quite a bit and try to kick this cold that has been lingering for (it seems like) forever!!

xoxo

I hope everyone had a pleasant V-Day.

Up Close and Personal: Part One

 I haven’t really posted much about my personal life, but now that I am here and since my intro line is “up close and personal” I feel it is time to express how I feel at this point in time in my life.

I am in love.  And the best part is that I am in love with a wonderful man.  Yes, we’ve been through high’s and low’s (but who hasn’t really?) but overall I believe we have done everything right.  Taken things slow, both listened when we needed each other to, and held and hugged one another when needed.  We’ve never had to break up over a fight, nor have we ever taken (or in fact had any reason to) a break.  It helps that we don’t believe in breaks, but nonetheless, we’ve had a strong and healthy relationship.

The things that I love him for:

His sensitivity.  I love how he is patient with me, whether it be me complaining about my day, helping me pick out the right shade of make-up (that was today btw), or sitting through 2 hours or a sappy movie that he clearly would never have picked in a million years.  I love him for this.

His sense of humour.  Now this is important!  (For me anyways)  Ever since the day I met him he has kept me laughing.  Everyday of our relationship he has made me laugh.  Ask any person he has ever come across and they will tell you what a riot he is.  I know I give him a hard time for his “trademark” cackle, but deep down I see how much joy it brings our friends when he does it, and to be honest, I frankly find it pretty amusing myself.  (Mike if you ever read this, please don’t EVER rub this in my face)  The fact that he can put a smile on my face, makes him so incredibly attractive.  I love him for this.

His brains.  The secret to a fulfilled and lasting relationship is to have the ability to actually talk about stuff.  ”Stuff” as in actual real world events, ideas, and topics.  Not “he said, she said” type of material, but rather current events, feelings and emotions, and (heaven forbid) politics.  I say this because we usually disagree, but hey!  it’s boring when things never get heated up.  He isn’t scared to disagree with me.  I love him for this.

His ambition.  See, now if this was lacking, I’m sure our partnership would not have worked out.  I find it is easier to work in a solid relationship when you both have similar goals and aspirations.  In our case we both have aspirations to be successful.  Getting educations in hope of someday living the “life”.  I cannot express how proud I am of him.  He has a great job that he had to work his ass (pardon my french *blush*) off for.  I never doubted for one second that this would not work out for him.  With his intelligence, he is a great business man, and with his great sense of humour and interpersonal skills, he could win over any heart in the business world.  I love him for this.

So this is the end of Part One for UC and P.  Stay tuned for the next part!  xo
