I felt like blogging a little.

This morning after picking up my check and waiting around for a little bit to talk with the assistant staffing director at work (which turned out to be a waste of time, since I found out today was her day off and she won’t be back ‘til monday), Erik and I had breakfast at this place called Eggworks. It was my first time there, and I must say, they’re banana nut muffins are BOMB. It was pretty damn delicious, and their omelettes are tasty too. I got so fullll, I couldn’t even finish my food. :( Womp. But like I said, it was gooood.

Afterwards, I went with Erik to go pick up his new glasses. They fit him well, I think. It suits his style. :) Next we parted ways. He went home and I went to Nellis to run some errands. First I went to the satellite pharmacy to pick up some prescriptions, then went to the commissary to get something for my mom so she can cook sinigang na spareribs. Yum. Then as usual I stopped by the BX to browse around for a little bit, when my mom calls me and tells me she needs something else from the commissary. So, I had to go back and get it. Geez. After I got some gas, I was thinking of getting pizza for Erik, to repay him for breakfast earlier this morning, but I wasn’t sure about what toppings to get. So I called him and asked. He said to surprise him. I ended up ordering a large bacon, mushroom, and cheeseburger pizza. :)

I drove to his house to deliver his pizza, and I stayed for about three hours. The pizza was pretty good. I’ve never actually had those toppings before myself, haha. And so, just overall..it’s been a pretty kickass day. :)

Ah! And he dyed his hair. Personally, I love it. Dark hair suits him very well. Haha. ;D Okay. Now it’s time for me to sleeeep. I have work tonight! Hope you’ve all had wonderful starts to your weekend. :)

I’ve always thought about that concept and said to myself, “No, impossible. Falling in love has no limits.” But I guess that all depends on how you define the first time you fell in love, and if it really was love. I thought I felt love. It seems so naive. Eager to find someone to hold. I was in a state of desperation and wanted to fall in love. That seems to be the difference between then and now. Love finds you when you least expect it, sometimes when you don’t even want it.

After what love did to me, I don’t think I wanted to fall in love ever again. That concept scared me. At least the aftermath of when you fall in love, and when it backfires in the end. And maybe that’s because that wasn’t love afterall, at least on the other side it wasn’t. Love doesn’t work one way, at least I don’t think it does. The person you’re going to spend the rest of your life with should be the first time you fall in love. When you’re an old sap sitting on a rocking chair on your front porch, reading the paper, watching kids pass by with their bicycles, playing catch, being young, thinking about how long the course of your life has been. How tiring it was waiting for life to go by faster, but then you realize how content you are now. Because there’s a person sitting next to you, sewing away, and you kiss her wrinkled cheek. Followed by a tender I love you. And a look in your eyes that mean it, with all of your heart.

I think everyone before that person wasn’t the real I love you. Because if you love someone, regardless of how messy it may be, you’ll be with them through everything. You don’t even need to take a vow of marriage to prove that, either. Marriage doesn’t seem so real to me anymore. Sure, it’s beautiful, but it doesn’t seem necessary. And this is coming from a girl who’s been planning every detail of her wedding ever since she was a child.

If you love the person you are with, then you love them. Of course you love them, you love them right now. If you’re willing to climb mountains and dodge traffic for this person, then you love them. But when you break up, and whether it seems easy or harder to move on, you move on. And if you move on, when that time comes, whether it be days, months, or years, then I guess that wasn’t really love. But you tried. Love isn’t momentary. Love is everlasting. And no matter how many times you feel hatred boiling under the very pit of your heart towards that person you love, you still can’t help but love them. You still cannot really live without them crossing your mind everyday. This is love, at it’s core. Love can’t always guarantee complete happiness, but it’s worth the try.

So I really do believe you only fall in love once, even if you have to go through other people to love in order to find that person you will fall in love with for the first time, for a long time. The person you will really fall in love with, will be the last person you fall in love with. It seems so simple.

“This is love, at it’s core. Love can’t always guarantee complete happiness, but it’s worth the try.”

“The person you will really fall in love with, will be the last person you fall in love with. It seems so simple.”

This was really well written and I totally agree with it.

We had to raincheck our date last night, but we made up for it this morning. I’ve actually been feeling a little under the weather since about two nights ago. A major headache and horrible sore throat for the most part. Then early this morning I got a fever that went up a little bit while I was at Erik’s house. He gave me medicine and it went away, aww. :)

We made blueberry pancakes! I’ve never had blueberry pancakes, actually. I mean, I’ve had pancakes from iHop that had the blueberries and sauce poured over them, but never pancakes with actual blueberries IN the pancakes. It was so yummyyy!

I was at his house from 8:30 am to about 12:30 pm. So, about four hours. I gotta’ say, it was quite an awesome morning. Definitely one of the bests. Sigh. Corny, but I’m a happy girl. :) Haha. Can’t wait ‘til we work together on sunday.

Hella’ got me cheesin’. :D Just wanted to share..haha.

“in the end, the experiences we had together, and the memories that then formed, those didn’t matter. Instead, it was the absence of memory that defined our togetherness, the things we never did together: we never kissed in the rain; we tried once, but it was only drizzling. We never spent the night together as teenagers, there never came a weekend when parents went out of town. We never had dancing lessons or took a summer art class together. Those gaps in memory are what give birth to loneliness, when all you can remember are all the things you did not do, things you only read in books or saw in movies, superimposing your faces onto perfectly framed bodies. That is love, when you only wish you had done more. It’s almost as though you feel you are forgetting something, you are forgetting that there is nothing to forget. It is something the opposite of amnesia. We are all scrambling to recover memories of lives we never led. The list goes on: we never made love in a hotel in South Carolina. We never visited the Smithsonian. We never held hands and watched fireworks on the Fourth of July. We never, we never, we never.” - bernard hitch
