tonight my boyfriend and i decided we wanted a treat. so we stomped into our shoes and headed down to the corner store and were so very surprised when we opened the door and saw rain dumping out of the sky! stomp stomp back to the elevator, ding ding going up eight floors, squeeek door open, grab umbrella and then re-trace path to basement door. the rain was pouring pouring pouring and within ten steps huddled together under our portable cover we realized it was a little inadequate for the storm we were walking through! so we laughed and laughed and laughed and our feet got sopping wet and when we finally made it two blocks to the store we collapsed our cover. i turned around and to my horror realized my heart-throb of a boyfriend had been so worried about keeping me and my sunday best dry that he had sacrificed his WHOLE backside of his body to the water! a lot more laughing, a pint of ice cream, and a thank-you-for-protecting-me kiss on the cheek later we headed back out in the storm to head home and enjoy our treat. and it was delicious. that really good kind of delicious that makes you smack your lips as you spoon it into your mouth. still, not as good as having a
boyfriend who keeps you dry in a new york city thunderstorm on the way to buy a midnight snack...
it is my birthday tomorrow and all i can seem to wish for is these two girls. it has been so long and i miss them. i miss them a lot lately. and i know there are so many wonderful things to wish for, especially when one is turning twenty two. but this birthday it is a simple choice, i wish for them. these two best friends are the wonderful i chose this birthday eve.
