Blah, blah, blah

I know I haven't updated in awhile. I haven't been in the mood to think of something to write about. We had a Super Bowl party last Sunday. It was the first time a lot of people had seen our house. I think we had about 15 or so friends show up so it was a lot of fun. I missed the whole first half of the game but my Steelers finally won that one for the thumb. Go Steelers!!

Tomorrow is D and my 2nd anniversary. I can't believe its only been 2 years. We've been through so much that it feels a lot longer. We don't have any special plans. We're both short on cash right now. D has to have a ton of dental work done and he's already gone over his insurance's limit so he has to pay for the rest of it himself. I think we're going to go to the wing place where we met for the first timen tomorrow. Not fancy but sentimental.

In honor of our anniversary (and b/c Jes is bored and wants a post with substance), I'll tell the story of how D. and I met. We actually met on match.com. I had read his profile a couple of times and he sounded nice but I didn't think we had anything in common. He had written about racing his car and bicycle riding and I didn't really care about either one so I kept looking. D ended up "winking" at me (its a way of saying "hey I noticed you") and even though I didn't think we had anything in common, I decided to wink back. He emailed me soon after. Emails turned into instant messaging and we decided to meet in person a week later on February 10th. It was kind of fast but we had been talking a lot. We met at Rooster's, a wing place on my side of town and we talked non-stop for 5 hours. I have never been able to talk to someone so easily. We made plans to get together the following Saturday (which just happened to be Valentine's Day).

We talked a couple more times and didn't want to wait until Saturday to see each other so I met him at a bar with some of his friends. I ended up going to his place afterwards and we stayed up until 5:00 in the morning talking. So much for not having anything in common, huh?

I went home from his place around mid-morning to get ready for our first "real" date that night. We went to a seafood place that he somehow managed to get a reservation at last minute. At the table waiting for me was a purple rose (purple is both of our favorite color). We stayed up really late again that night talking and we've pretty much been inseperable ever since.
