Sitting at home right now, trying to get up motivation to clean, but it's just not happening. I have a big pile of dishes waiting for me from cooking dinner last night. Dishes are the worst part about cooking, seriously.
But it was a lot fun, a sort of double-date with my man and his two best friends, who have just started dating. It was really great to see them together. They are so cute, and they both seem really happy. *sigh* It reminds me of when the boyfriend and I were first getting together. The excitement of finding someone new who was so much like yourself. The desire, and the need to be touching all the time; cuddling, kissing, holding hands. How you want to be near that person all day, every day. Of course, now he and I live together, and I still can't get enough of him sometimes. But it is sweet to see the other two and remember what those early days were like.
Haha, it kinda reminds me of a quote from one of the best (read: non-sexist stereotyped) romantic comedies I've seen, Hitch.
"What I can tell you is that it happens in the blink of an eye. One moment you're enjoying your life, and the next you're wondering how you ever lived without them"
Wow, I sound like a total sap now. But that's about how it was for us. One day we were going along in our lives, happy and having fun, enjoying being single and meeting new people. The next, we couldn't imagine life without each other. I sure as hell wasn't looking for a boyfriend, and I definitely didn't want to be in love again. But there he was, a tall gangly redhead sitting on my couch with me at 1 a.m., and I suddenly knew that I was in love.
I wonder if it was like that for the other two. I hope so. They deserve that same sweet-adorable-kissing-all-the-time-making-others-nauseous kind of happiness too.
