An Easy Humpday

No, it's not what you are thinking, get your mind out of the gutter.  I am talking about humpday, Wednesday, as in the work week is halfway over.  Considering I don't have a job, everyday is humpday for me, but for my man and the rest of the working world, humpday makes the rest of the week easier.

It felt like fall on humpday:  blustery and dark.  It was the perfect day to stay inside and cozy up on the couch with our delivery pizza and our redbox movie.  We opted for Bridesmaids, everyone had told us that it was hilarious, so we wanted to see what the hype was about.

The movie was not that funny.  It was the typical love story / jealous of your BFF for getting married story.  These bitches were terribly disgusting.  I'd never behave like the MOH did at the wedding shower, throwing a fit and dropping F-bombs everywhere.  Suck it up and deal with it for your friend's big day.  And, gross, the bridesmaid's dress fitting, it seriously made me want to vomit.  Definitely not slap stick humor, Bridesmaids went more for the gross out moments.

Maybe I hated this movie so much because I hate being a bridesmaid.  I don't enjoy all that being a bridesmaid entails.  I'd rather just show up to the wedding as a great friend and guest to enjoy the party and celebrating another couple's love!  Isn't that what weddings are all about anyway?  It's not the presents, nor the dresses.  It's about two people falling in love and beginning their life together!

One Year Later, October 15

I would have never guessed when I started off my final year in law school, I'd soon be dating one of my friends.  What started out as a weekend in Athens for the Georgia Arkansas game to get away from law school turned into one weekend that will be one of my favorite memories.  Last minute, we had decided to head up from Macon for just a weekend of bourbon drinking and fall football.  It turned into dancing all night at the 8e's Bar, attending the tailgate, suffering the in the sweltering heat at the game which we lost, napping for an hour, and then doing it all over again that night at the local watering holes.  It was tough to recover from that weekend, but totally worth every second.  Garon and his two girls, Lauren and me, beginning the fall right.

The next weekend I had already planned to visit my college roommate, Leeza, in Savannah.  Luckily for me, she wanted more the merrier.  I had invited many to attend the Jazz Festival but it happened to be that only Garon decided to visit her with me.  It was such a fun time.  I exposed him to a different side of Savannah, one that included gay karaoke bars.  Believe it or not, at that very bar on River Street is where we first kissed!

It was supposed to be a secret, but it turned out that it was no kept very well.  All of our friends knew that we were seeing each other, yet none of them were so willing to call us out on it.  Thankfully, when we decided to tell everyone, they already knew, so it was no big deal!

My surprise delivery while Garon is out of town for a bachelor party and missing our one year!  For some reason I think Buster and Timber were both in on the surprise, they barely even barked when the delivery man rang the doorbell.

Two dozen red roses!

Now one year later, I can say that I am happier than ever!  It's been a long but exciting year, and I am excited to see what the future holds for us!
